We decided to install off the shelf french doors and build a custom transom window to fill the space above.
Interior double french doors with transom.
We offer numerous doors with two sidelites and rectangular transoms for sale.
The first step we took was to prep the opening for the doors.
The pattern or design of the muntins for the transom usually does not align with the muntin bars or stiles of the doors below.
Above a tall window with limestone surround is nestled under the flared eaves of the hipped slate roofed gable that completes the composition.
Double door units can be ordered with a pre planned transom above but no transom sash installed.
These door units come with a pre finished jamb above the doors.
The jamb above the door is of course empty and our planning and measuring tools will help you measure the interior of the jamb to order the correct sash size to fill it.
French doors with transoms afford a view to long island sound beyond.
A transom over a double door better visually connects the two rooms and shares light between the two.
Design interior door is an intricate part of home design and adding or upgrading the doors in your home can increase your home s value.
The french doors we used required a 62 in.
We headed to the home depot and picked up a pair of 60 in.
Double doors are often used for room transitions so adjoining rooms can occasionally be closed off from one another.
