French doors are a timeless architectural feature—elegant, light-filled, and endlessly charming. But with all their visual appeal comes a unique challenge: finding the perfect window furnishings that balance form, function, and flexibility.
At Security Plus Shutters, Doors & Blinds, we believe your French doors should look just as stunning as they are practical. With over 30 years of experience enhancing Australian homes, our team specialises in tailoring window furnishing solutions that elevate aesthetics, optimise comfort, and improve privacy—all without compromising the integrity of your design.
Let’s explore the smartest, most stylish ways to dress your French doors, and how the right products can transform both the feel and function of your home.
Unlike standard windows or sliding doors, French doors are typically double doors with large glass panes that open outward or inward. While this creates a grand, open feel, it also introduces specific needs:
With so much to consider, one-size-fits-all just doesn’t cut it. That’s where tailor-made furnishings shine.
Plantation shutters are a perfect pairing with French doors for those who want a classic, sophisticated look. Whether you prefer the natural warmth of paulownia and basswood or the resilience of PVC, our shutters are:
They also add a layer of insulation, helping to keep your space cooler in summer and warmer in winter—without sacrificing style.
Tip: Choose a shutter colour that matches or contrasts with your French door frames for a cohesive, designer-inspired finish.
If your style leans more modern or minimal, roller blinds offer a clean and contemporary solution that won’t obstruct the movement of your doors. Our options include:
Our roller blinds can be fitted above the door frame, rolling neatly up and out of the way when not in use. Plus, with motorisation options from Somfy and other premium brands, you can operate them at the push of a button.
French doors often open onto patios, balconies or alfresco areas. Why not enhance these external spaces too?
Our eZip track blinds and outdoor awnings:
Available in a variety of mesh densities and frame colours, outdoor blinds are ideal for turning any patio off your French doors into a year-round retreat.
While curtains are traditional, they often get in the way of French door access. A more structured solution, such as panel glides or slim-profile blinds, offers the softness of fabric with the functionality of modern design.
Panel glides move sideways along a track and stack neatly when open, making them a great option for wide spans like French doors. Fabric options range from sheer to full blockout, giving you complete control over ambiance.
At Security Plus, we combine craftsmanship, smart design, and expert advice to help you choose the right solution for your space. Every product is:
✔️ Custom-measured and locally manufactured
✔️ Designed to integrate with existing architectural details
✔️ Engineered for sun protection, privacy, and insulation
✔️ Installed by our specialist team for a flawless finish
With locations across Melbourne and Sydney, and three decades of happy clients, we know what works for French doors—and more importantly, what works for your lifestyle.
Ready to transform your French doors into a feature of beauty and function? Whether you’re renovating, building new, or just exploring options, the team at Security Plus is here to help.
