The main reason to use a glass french door is the light that it brings into a room.  Glass french french doors can can have any number of lites. Lites are the name for each individual piece of glass in a french door.  Using glass in a room lets light into the room, also cutting down on the energy usage in a home. Natural light is added making a room less depressing.  With the use of french doors, you can close off a room, and still let light into a room.  Using french doors in a hallway, lets the light into a hall, while still allowing you to have a closed door.  The possibilities for french door uses in your home are as varied as your imagination.  See the types of french doors available at InteriorDoors.com

French doors can be configured in a number of ways. To begin with, a french door just means that it is a door with glass.  French doors can be used as single doors, double doors, bifold doors,  multifold doors, and closet bypass doors.  A single door can be used as a single hinged door, or used as a pocket door.  A double french door can be used as double doors hinged off both sides,  bifold doors, double pocket doors, or as bypass doors. Multifold french doors are pairs of french doors used in multiples of 4, or 6 doors.  All the french doors used here are available at InteriorDoors.com

The most basic definition of a french door is simply a door with glass that lets light into a room. French doors originated in France , as explained in an earlier post.  French doors can have any number of lites (separate pieces of glass), such as one lite, 5 lite, 10, 15 lite, and any number of custom lites.  Glass can be clear, frosted, or custom art glass.  French doors can be single doors, such as this single pocket door shown below:

French doors can be in series, such as the cherry french doors on the main page of this site below.

French doors are not limited to any one type of wood, size, or number of lites.  Custom glass such as some of these types below can be added:

Pennies are used here for scale, in order to show you how large the patterns are.  See InteriorDoors.com for more information on french doors, or call toll-free for quotes at 1-800-772-0314 M-F 8:00 – 4:30 P.M.

A fifteen lite french door means that there are 15 separate pieces of glass divided divided by wood mullions.  Of course, ten lite french doors would then have 10 separate pieces of glass, and a five lite french door would have 5 separate pieces of glass.  A one lite french door only has one piece of glass with no wood dividers, or mullions. To show illustrations of a beveled glass french door with mullions, see, see below:
