    Hi all,
    So we are at the stage of choosing our windows and doors. I have decided on a double front door. I would like a hardwood double doors. I was advised yesterday that it would be wise to have these opening out the way. I am not a fan of my front doors opening out the way. Does anyone have double front doors that open in the way? Another option would be to have a large single door with side glass panels. Any advice welcome. Thanks

    I have a double front door. Recently installed. Only one of the doors opens and it opens inwards. The other side of the double door is a "false" door.

    That's for quick reply. Do you mind me asking is yours a timber door or uPVC? We are looking at a composite aluclad door and as these are more expensive, we may decide on single door - budget may not allow for two of these doors!

    Timber frame (teak I think). Doors are composite (not aluclad just normal composite).

    If you on your email addy I will sent a picture.
