Choosing The Best Feature Door For Your Home

It feels like we’ve been waiting forever for the weather to improve, and now it finally seems to be turning in our favour.

Don’t waste a moment of it—head into the garden while it’s warmer, encouraged by the presence of a feature door in your home. After all, we know how quickly the weather can change.

At Budget Windows, we have three types of doors that fall under the category of ‘feature doors’ – bi-folding doors, patio doors, and French doors.

Feature doors are aptly named, offering stunning designs and mesmerising opening styles that continuously captivate.

If you’re seriously considering one of these options to create a seamless connection between your home and garden, it’s essential to understand what each solution offers:

BI-FOLDING DOORS

Currently, the bi-folding door is the most sought-after feature door, and it’s easy to see why. Available in configurations of up to 7 panels, a bi-fold door has an incredibly smooth folding mechanism.

When fully opened, it removes a large section of the wall, flooding your space with light and allowing you to move effortlessly between indoors and outdoors.

Stand on the low threshold of the bi-fold door and take in the uninterrupted views; it’s bound to capture your attention.

PATIO DOORS

A patio door shares the smooth sliding action of a bi-fold door but does not have sections that take up internal or external space, as it moves from left to right or vice versa.

This makes it an excellent choice for areas where space is limited, allowing you to place furniture close to the door without obstruction.

While patio doors don’t open up an entire wall, you can compensate by opting for extra-large panes to maximise sightlines.

FRENCH DOORS

Inspired by Italian design and conceived in the 17th century, French doors exude timeless elegance.

As hinged double doors, you can open either section independently or both together when you want to step outside and enjoy the fresh air.

Choose between an inward or outward opening, showcasing the flexibility of French doors, and get ready to find yourself drawn outside throughout the spring and summer months.
