These are some of the tell-tale signs you might spot if your French doors are ready to be replaced: Draughts and cold spots. Older French doors can cause your home to be cold and uncomfortable, especially if you only have single glazing or the door is ill fitting. Damaged glazing. If glass is damaged, you’ll usually need to replace the whole pane. It may be time to consider a door upgrade at the same time – modern glazing has many benefits, and it won’t always fit into older doors. Warping, cracking and damage to the timber. As your French doors age, you may begin to see visible signs of wear and tear. This can affect the doors themselves as well as the frame. Gaps between the door and the frame. These can pose a security risk, making it easier to force the doors open. They can also be responsible for those cold spots you’re feeling. Difficulty opening and closing doors. Your doors, hinges and door furniture can sustain damage and suffer general wear and tear over the years.
