Please can you help Set of doors in b&q warehouse for £199.00 In the instructions it sais that they have to be fitted so that the doors open outwards. Why is this?? Can they not be fitted to open inwards. Have a close look at how they would seal out a heavy rain. OK you could fit a drip bar across most of the width, but the centre will be unprotected. Moisture would collect along the centre rebate and run down, an additional rubber seal may alleviate this. A modern inward opening window (a french casement?) would have weep holes in the frame to allow moisture to drain, you would have to drill the base of the french doors' frame to replicate this. -- Toby.
