Retractable Screens for French Doors in Langley

Preserve your view and your doors' elegance while keeping insects out.

How French Door Screens Work

French door retractable screens use a double-door configuration: two separate screens mount on either side of the doorway and meet in the middle when extended. Each screen retracts independently into its housing when not in use, completely disappearing from view.

The screens join at the center with magnetic strips that hold them securely together while allowing easy pass-through. Simply part the screens at the center to walk through, and they'll reconnect behind you. For regular in-and-out traffic, you can lock one screen in place and use just one side.

Ideal Applications

Traditional French Doors: Classic double doors that swing inward or outward onto patios and decks.

Double Entry Doors: Grand entryways with two swinging doors.

Wider Single Openings: Any doorway wider than 5 feet benefits from the French door configuration.

Note: For openings wider than 10 feet, or for bi-fold and multi-panel sliding doors, our Large Opening Retractable Screens may be a better solution.

Benefits of Retractable French Door Screens

Preserve Your View

When retracted, both screens store completely out of sight, maintaining the full beauty of your French doors.

Smooth Operation

Mirage's Teflon-infused tracks deliver the smoothest glide in the industry.

Custom Sizing

French door configurations can span openings up to 10 feet wide (120 inches) and 9 feet high.

Easy Access

The magnetic center join allows quick, hands-free passage. Perfect for carrying groceries, drinks, or patio furniture.

The Mirage French Kit System

Mirage's French kit includes all the specialized components needed for a double-door installation: matched screen housings, coordinated tracks, magnetic closure strips, and locking mechanisms that let you secure one screen in place when desired.

Each component is precision-engineered to work as a complete system. This integrated approach is why Mirage French door screens operate more smoothly and last longer than mix-and-match alternatives.
