French Doors - How They Came To Be
Nearly any home can benefit from the addition of French doors because of the added light and beauty that they bring. One of the things that French doors add to your home is something that realtors refer to as curb appeal. Two of the preferred uses of these doors is to either have them open up onto the patio thereby creating a smooth transition from the outdoors to the indoors or installing them between two rooms making the rooms seem more spacious and opening up the interior of your home. In this article we will look at some of the materials that are used in modern construction of French doors as well as a bit of the history behind them and how modern designers have found new uses for these beautiful functional works of art. The French door actually began its life as a window. The casement window began its evolution from the common window at some time during the French Renaissance period. At first windows on the second floors of homes began to grow downwards to meet the floor. Once the evolution of the windows grew to taking them upwards, it was only a matter of time until they were converted to doors. These original French doors contained individual pieces of glass known as lites separated by wooden dividers known as mullions.These doors looked very much like windows with individual pieces of glass separated by wooden dividers known as millions. A naming convention for these doors has always been to identified by the number of glass pieces that it has, so that a door with 10 pieces of glass is a 10 light French door. Single paned, individual pieces of glass were used for these original doors and were separated by wooden dividers. Wood is commonly being replaced by lightweight materials such as aluminum and uPVC in the modern construction of these doors. While French doors can still be found that are manufactured using multiple pieces of glass, it is a common practice to use a single sheet of double pane glass that is then overlaid by a grid to give it the divided look. These doors are being created by crafty and innovative manufacturers today. You can find French doors with mini-blinds encased between the two sheets of glass to provide a way to block out light and provide for privacy. This illustrates just how creative modern manufactures have become in creating these doors. In order to keep up with the constantly changing needs and desires of consumers, today's designers have to be more creative and inventive than ever. Restaurants offer us an excellent example of this creative force an action because the owners of these establishments are constantly looking for ways to expand their seating area. Entire wall sections of the restaurants have been replaced with bi-folding French doors thereby meeting the needs of these restaurant owners. If we open our minds to new possibilities and new ideas the uses for French doors are basically endless.
