Grilles

Make your French door stand out by adding a unique decorative grille pattern. Grilles can transform a standard French door into a distinctive design feature that enhances your home’s exterior. Many homeowners choose grilles to complement their home’s architecture and boost curb appeal. Interior grilles are placed between glass panes for a smooth, maintenance-free surface, while exterior grilles offer a traditional, handcrafted look with the durability of a sealed glass unit.
