🌡️ Energy Efficiency You Can Feel

With glass making up up to 80% of the surface, our UPVC doors use high-performance glazing combined with:

• Rigid rubber seals

• Draught excluders

• Polyamide thermal barrier profiles

This setup forms an insulating break between inside and outside temperatures—helping to:

• Retain indoor warmth

• Reduce condensation

• Block external noise

🧰 How to Measure for Your UPVC French Doors

🔹 If You Don’t Have an Existing Frame:

1. Measure the height in three places: left, centre, and right

2. Measure the width at the top, middle, and bottom

3. Take the average of each set

4. Subtract 10mm for installation clearance

📌 This prevents tight fits that can affect function.

🔹 Measuring an Open Frame:

1. Follow the same 3-point process

2. Account for flooring material thickness (e.g. carpet or tile)

3. Use the narrowest height and width as your final reference

4. Measure door depth based on location:

   • Exterior door: sheetrock to exterior sheeting

   • Interior door: sheetrock to sheetrock

🚪 Hinge Direction: Left or Right?

To choose the correct hinge:

• Stand facing the door so it opens towards you

• Hinges on the left? → Left-hinged

• Hinges on the right? → Right-hinged

🔁 Always double-check your measurements.
📌 The golden rule: “Measure twice, order once.”
