Two leaves. Your specification.Double doors
A classic opening
Made for your room
Explore double steel doors across different interiors, finishes and glazing choices.
Every door is specified for its opening. Glazing, hardware and any fire-rated or thermal specification are confirmed for your project.
How it’s built
Two leaves hung from a shared frame, meeting at a central astragal or edge-to-edge. Each leaf is powder-coated as part of the full assembly.
Where it works best
Wide openings from 1,100mm to around 2,400mm. Between a hallway and reception room, kitchen and garden, or as a centrepiece in an open-plan space.
How to order it right
Confirm total opening width and individual leaf sizes. Specify active and passive leaf if one stays fixed. Glass, finish and hardware as standard. Lead time 8 to 10 weeks.

The details, answered
Your questions
Clear answers
What opening width suits double doors?
Typically, 1,100mm to 2,400mm total width. Below 1,100mm a single door usually works better, and above 2,400mm we discuss whether a bifold or partition makes more sense. We advise on the right leaf proportions for your specific opening.
Do both leaves need to open?
No. One leaf can be fixed, called the passive leaf, and opened only when the full width is needed. We clarify which leaf is active and which is passive at the drawing stage, and hardware is specified accordingly.
How do the leaves meet in the centre?
Either with a central astragal bar, which is a slim steel mullion that each leaf closes against, or edge-to-edge with a rebated meeting stile. We advise on which suits your use case and the look you are after.
Can double doors be fire-rated?
Yes. FD30 and FD60 are both available in the same slim profile, with coordinating hardware and intumescent seals at the meeting stile, frame and threshold. Third-party certified. Specify the rating at the time of order.
What glass configurations are available?
Full-light, half-light or solid panel on each leaf independently. The two leaves do not need to match. We can glaze one and panel the other if your design calls for it.
Are double doors thermally broken?
Standard on all external double doors, with weather sealing at the perimeter and meeting stile. Available on internal doors where required. Specify at the time of order.
How long does manufacture take?
8 to 10 weeks from drawing sign-off. Fire rating or bespoke hardware can add two to three weeks. We confirm the programme at the time of order.
Can double doors be automated?
Yes. We can incorporate automation hardware, including actuators, sensors and controls, into the door frame at the time of manufacture. This needs to be specified at the outset as it affects the frame design.
Do you install?
Yes. We are based in London and install across the UK. We also supply-only to your contractor anywhere in the UK, and we deliver to European countries. Full fitting instructions and technical support are included with every supply-only order.
What warranty do you offer?
Ten years on frames and glazing, five years on hardware. Powder-coat is ten years internal and five years external, subject to normal maintenance. Full warranty terms are provided with every order.
