I want to have two french doors in the center of the wall off my kitchen leading to the garden. Currently I have only one door to the far right with two windows in the kitchen area with a radiator between them. I want to have access to the garden from the kitchen. I know this involves engineering and careful construction. Has anyone done this? I am looking for information about cost and permits, etc.
Thank you for any input you can offer.
