Buying second-hand PVCu french doors

Someone wrote, but sm_jamieson munged the attributions yet again:
Everyone doesn't. French windows is the correct description in the UK.
Only foreigners from the other side of the Atlantic should call them
french doors.
When describing component parts, what do you say. E.g.
I have a set of french windows. The left window has a crack ..
OR
The left door has a crack.
"The left [one] has a crack".
If you had a single side and called it a window, people would be
well confused !
"Well confused". Hm. ".. people would be, well, confused!" perhaps?
