With a strong focus on quality, design, and expert installation, we help homeowners enhance their living space with doors that are as functional as they are stylish.
Traditional French Doors – A Timeless Addition
French doors have been a popular architectural feature for centuries – and for good reason. Their double-opening design, large glazed panels, and symmetrical appeal make them perfect for connecting your indoor and outdoor spaces while maximising natural light.
Back French doors can completely change how you experience your home, offering clear views of the garden, fresh airflow during warmer months, and an elegant entrance that enhances both the inside and outside of your property.
Whether your home is a cottage in the Cotswolds, a Victorian townhouse in Oxford, or a modern family home in Banbury or Bicester, our French doors are customised to suit your property’s unique style and structure.
High-Performance Glazing & Thermal Efficiency
At Harlequin Windows, we understand that doors need to do more than just look good. Our French doors are built for performance, using advanced glazing and insulating frames to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency. Each door is fitted with double or triple glazing and high-performance weather seals, helping you maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round.
By installing thermally efficient French doors at the back of your home, you’ll enjoy reduced energy bills and improved insulation without sacrificing style or light.

Oxfordshire homes are rich in history and architectural variety. From rural stone cottages to newer developments, our team at Harlequin Windows knows how to balance tradition with innovation. Our back French doors are available in uPVC, aluminium, and timber-effect finishes – ensuring a perfect match for any home.
Whether you’re updating your kitchen, converting a rear extension, or simply replacing tired old patio doors, we’ll help you design a French door system that suits your home’s layout and character. All our installations are fully bespoke and made to measure.

Your rear entrance should offer the same level of security as your front door. That’s why all of our French doors are fitted with multi-point locking systems, hardened hinges, and reinforced frames to protect your home and family.

What are back French doors and how are they different from patio doors?
Back French doors are double doors that open outward or inward from the centre, offering a symmetrical and traditional look. They typically have large glass panels and are hinged on the sides. In contrast, sliding patio doors move horizontally along a track. French doors offer a more classic appearance and can open fully to create a wide access point, ideal for garden entrances.
Are French doors secure enough for the rear of my home?
Yes. At Harlequin Windows, all of our French doors are fitted with multi-point locking systems, robust hinges, and reinforced frames to ensure maximum security. Our doors are manufactured to meet PAS 24 and Secured by Design standards, providing reliable protection for the rear of your property.
Can I install French doors in an older property or listed building?
Yes, we regularly install French doors in period homes and heritage properties across Oxfordshire. Our range includes traditional designs and wood-effect finishes that are perfect for maintaining the character of older buildings. We also offer custom glazing options to match the original style. For listed buildings, we recommend checking with your local planning authority for any restrictions or permissions needed.
