Two leaves where one or both can open to pass big items.
Double Doors
Typical Measurements
Clear opening width
60-72 in
Single active leaf width
30-36 in
Opening height
80 in
Center astragal width
1-3 in
These are planning defaults. Measure your real opening before buying, moving, or booking delivery.
Fit Notes
- Opening both leaves yields a very wide passage, but the center astragal trim adds an inch back.
- The inactive leaf is often bolted shut, so check it actually releases before counting on it.
- With one leaf open you are back to a single-door width of roughly 30 to 36 in.
What Fits?
Large sectional, joined
Both leaves open give ample width for one-piece units.
Dining table
