A Brief Explanation - Doors

Listed Under: News and Advice

External Doors -Timber remains the most widely used material for exterior doors, due to its natural beauty and ability to suit any style of house. Although there is some degree of maintenance required, if cared for properly they will last for many, many years. 

Internal Doors - Replacement internal doors can make a huge difference and create a brand new feel to your interiors. Any door style can be copied and manufactured to your design, copied from an existing door or matched from a picture. Fire rated doors are also available, for both domestic and commercial use.

Bi-folding Doors - A stylish and space saving design where the doors are joined with hinges which allow the doors to fold back as one unit, leaving a wide open space. Used instead of patio or french doors out to a garden or used internally to separate two rooms. 

Doors Pre-Hung - this means the door is pre-cut and fitted with furniture; hinges, latches, locks etc, and supplied in the correct frame or door lining, ready for fitting. Although slightly more expensive than non hung doors, this can help reduce labour costs and fitting time on site.

Top & Side lights - These are the extra panels of glass either above or at the side of a door. They allow extra light into the area and can be fixed or manufactured to open and close.

Other door styles and combinations are available.
