Inswing French Doors

Inswing French doors open inward, making the entrance to your home a natural centerpiece that leads the eye indoors.

Outswing French Doors

In contrast, outswing French doors open outward, providing a practical solution for spaces where interior room is a concern. Outswing doors can be more resistant to strong winds, as the door is pushed against the frame, enhancing security and durability.

Space Considerations

Inswing Doors

If your home has a significant amount of indoor space, an inswing door is ideal for easy opening and closing without worrying about outdoor obstructions, such as patio furniture or plants. Don't forget to check for adequate interior space for the doors to swing without hitting any furniture or wall surfaces.

Outswing Doors

Outswing doors are the obvious choice if there's little space inside your home. Swinging outwards instead of inwards provides maximum room in small living spaces. Also, make sure that there's clear space outside for the doors to open fully without bumping into and damaging property.

Style

French doors have a classic, elegant style and can serve as a focal point between your indoor and outdoor spaces. Infinity from Marvin doors are designed with the strength and beauty of Ultrex® fiberglass and offer a timeless elegance that can complement any style. They are available in multiple finishes and grille patterns, allowing you to customize the look to match your home's style. The expansive glass panels in both designs provide ample natural light and unobstructed views, enhancing the visual appeal of your living space.

So, what’s the right French door to bring new life to your home? Inswing doors are perfect for maximizing your outdoor space, while outswing doors optimize indoor space and offer increased durability and security.
