Appeal & Versatility with External Stable Doors
Stable doors, Dutch doors, or half doors receive their name from the original stable door and are divided in design, with the top and bottom halves able to be opened separately. They are ideal for those who want to ventilate the home without sacrificing security and privacy.
Ideal for households with young kids or animals, stable doors are usually used as back doors and allow you to let in fresh air and natural light without fully opening your house to the outdoors. We carry a range of glazed stable doors to brighten up interiors and panelled stable doors for that extra level of security and homey ambience. Our unfinished doors are prepared for you to paint, stain, or varnish according to your home's style.
Stable doors are the ultimate in country cottage charm. They are a beautiful characteristic of traditional and period homes, combining rural chic with modern practicality. Explore our collection and find the perfect external door for your home today.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a Dutch door and a stable door?
Dutch doors and stable doors share the same horizontal split design, allowing the top and bottom sections to open independently. However, Dutch doors are primarily used as external entrances, while stable doors can be installed for both internal and external applications, offering versatility throughout the home.
Are stable doors a good idea?
The split design of a stable door provides both functionality and convenience, allowing you to enjoy fresh air and natural ventilation while keeping the lower section closed for added safety. This makes it an excellent choice for homes with young children or pets, ensuring they stay secure while still benefiting from airflow. With this design, you can enhance ventilation without compromising on security or privacy.
