Project Overview
Our client approached us with a desire to bring more natural light into their living space and improve access to their garden. Their traditional bay window, while charming, lacked practicality in terms of outdoor connection and energy performance.
We proposed a stunning yet practical solution: replacing the existing bay window with a bespoke French door set that seamlessly complements the existing brickwork and period charm of the property.
The Transformation
Before:
The original structure featured a classic bay window with fixed glazing and minimal ventilation or functionality. Although characterful, it limited natural airflow and made garden access inconvenient.
During Installation:
Our experienced installation team carefully removed the original bay window structure, preserving the brickwork's aesthetic integrity. Temporary supports were used to ensure structural stability while the opening was reconfigured to suit the new French doors.
After:
The final result is a beautifully integrated set of French doors with adjacent side panels that reflect the original bay dimensions. This layout maximizes light entry, creates a visual focal point in the room, and provides seamless garden access.
Security & Performance Highlights
- High-Security Ultion Door Barrels: Each door features Ultion's renowned high-security locking system, offering maximum protection against forced entry and lock snapping.
- A-Rated Energy Efficiency: he door and window units are built with high-spec insulated frames and advanced glazing, achieving an A-level energy rating. This means optimal thermal insulation, reduced heating bills, and year-round comfort.
- Enhanced Natural Light: The expansive glass areas dramatically increase daylight penetration into the living room, creating a brighter and more welcoming interior space.
Stylish, Modern Interior Finish
To complement the external upgrade, the room's interior was refreshed with deep navy walls, a plush teal sofa, and luxurious gold accents. The French doors became a stylish centrepiece that enhances both aesthetic appeal and functionality.

Conclusion
This bay-to-door transformation is a perfect example of how heritage character can be preserved while bringing a home into the modern era. With thoughtful design and high-spec installation, the result is both visually striking and practically beneficial.
