French Doors
Did you know that French Doors actually originated in 17th century France during the late Renaissance period? Or that their intricate woodwork and etched glass became so popular they soon migrated throughout Europe and made their way to North America in the 1700s?
Today, these doors — characterized by multiple glass panels — are the perfect way to add natural light and beauty to any room. At Direct Pro Windows & Doors, we have been the Greater Toronto Area’s premier retailer and installer of high-quality Exterior French Doors for more than a decade and can help you find a style that fits your needs and budget. Homeowners comparing options for a primary entryway can also explore our custom entrance doors.

The Direct Pro Windows & Doors Way of Doing Business
In today’s tough economy, there is more to being successful than just selling and installing French Doors. Any company or skilled handyman can do that.
At Direct Pro Windows & Doors, our distinguishing characteristics are an unrelenting commitment to high-quality customer service and workmanship, taking the time and effort to understand customer goals, and working with you to find the right exterior doors at the best price.
To that end, we follow a multi-step approach: Initial consultation with the client, in-home inspection of the existing door or room where it is to be installed, undertaking careful measurements, reviewing door options and accessories such as handles and locks, and developing estimates listing multiple door options.
It is only through such effort that new and existing customers are able to make informed decisions and know exactly where their money is going. Before scheduling your project, use our checklist for replacing windows and doors to review product choices, budgeting, measurements and installation preparation.
Complete Services with Every French Doors Installation
Once a client has purchased a door and scheduled an installation, the real work begins. Each of our French Entrance Doors is custom made to ensure the best fit and the least disruption to walls, flooring, or other architectural features during installation. Generally speaking, a single set ofdoors can be installed within one business day, which includes cleaning up after the job is done. For openings where saving indoor floor space is a priority, homeowners can also compare our sliding patio doors.
During installation, we drop tarps to protect flooring and hang heavy gauge plastic sheets to protect furnishings and rooms from dust and debris. We take as much care working for our customers as we would for ourselves or loved ones. York Region homeowners can also explore our local windows and doors in Vaughan services.

Frequently Asked Questions
You likely have many questions about our windows, doors, and installation services. To help you out, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions that will assist you in making the right choice for your home.
Can French doors be used as exterior doors?
Yes. Exterior French door systems are designed with weatherstripping, thresholds, insulated glass and locking hardware suitable for outdoor exposure. They should be ordered and installed as a complete exterior-rated system.
Are French doors energy efficient?
They can perform well when they use insulated glass, effective seals at the meeting stiles and threshold, and a properly installed frame. Door alignment is especially important because two operating panels must meet and seal correctly.
How secure are exterior French doors?
Security depends on the frame, glass, hinges, astragal, locking system and installation. Multipoint locks, reinforced strike areas and properly secured inactive panels can improve resistance to forced entry.
How long does French door installation take?
A like-for-like replacement may be completed in a day, while changes to the opening, structural repairs, sidelights or custom finishing can extend the project. The final scope should be confirmed after measurement.
What is the difference between French doors and sliding patio doors?
French doors swing open and offer a traditional double-door appearance, while sliding doors move along a track and require less floor clearance. The best option depends on space, opening width, view, ventilation and design preference.
