DOUBLE / FRENCH COMPOSITE DOORS

Force 8 has introduced an upgraded composite French door system for domestic properties, designed to combine style, security and practicality for homeowners, while offering trade installers a versatile, high-performance product, in either arched or standard formats

The latest iteration of the Force 8 French doors features a minimal aluminium meeting rail, which not only enhances the aesthetic appeal with clean, contemporary lines but also improves structural integrity. The system now incorporates the company’s auto-locking mechanism, which engages all latches and locks automatically when the door is closed, providing homeowners with an immediate, enhanced level of security. For those seeking additional convenience, the Tedee remote lock can also be integrated into the auto-locking system without any extra wiring, allowing smart operation and access control.

Weatherproofing has been a key focus in the redesign. A Neoprene rubber-proof seal, rebated into a slot within the door, ensures an accurate, long-lasting fit against the meeting rail, delivering excellent resistance against wind and rain. This is complemented by a Q-Lon edge seal from Mila, providing further protection and ensuring a reliable, weatherproof barrier. Together with the thermal efficiency of composite construction, these seals help maintain a comfortable indoor environment and reduce energy loss.

Security is reinforced further on the slave door, which is fitted with extra-strong finger bolts at both the top and bottom. The doors are supported by fully adjustable SFS hinges, making installation straightforward for trade professionals and allowing for fine adjustments over the product’s lifetime to maintain optimum performance.

To suit a range of property styles, the upgraded French doors are available in both standard and arched or part-arched formats, and a whole range of designs and colours, offering installers and homeowners greater flexibility. A wide choice of handle options is also available, including the increasingly popular stainless steel pull handles, ensuring homeowners can select a finish that complements their property’s style – whether traditional or contemporary.

With these enhancements, the Force 8 French doors deliver a high-quality, durable solution that meets the evolving expectations of homeowners while supporting installers with a product that is simple to fit and reliable over time.
