Start with the way you want to use your space. Compare a statement front door, a wide garden opening or glazed doors between rooms, then explore the styles and finishes in each range.







Make an entrance
From traditional panels and decorative glass to a clean, contemporary finish, we’ll help you bring the colour, handle and glazing together. Consider privacy, daylight and everyday access as well as the look of your door.
Explore Comp Door and Apeer composite doors, Origin aluminium entrance doors and Gerda steel-and-aluminium doors. Different constructions offer different choices: our team can talk you through the details.
Room to open up
The best garden door depends on your opening, furniture layout and how you use the room. We’ll check the practical details at your survey, including access, thresholds and the space needed for the doors to open.
| Door style | Why choose it? | Think about |
|---|---|---|
| Bifold doors | Panels fold back to create a generous connection to the garden. | Where the folded panels will stack and which leaf you’ll use daily. |
| Sliding patio doors | Large glass panels with no hinged swing into the room or patio. | The opening width, track arrangement and proportion that can open. |
| French doors | A familiar pair of opening doors, suited to many smaller openings. | The swing space and whether sidelights would add useful daylight. |
The finishing touches
Internal glass doors can separate living spaces while keeping a visual connection between them. Explore slim aluminium frames, heritage-style glazing bars and glass choices to suit the level of privacy you need.
For external glazed doors, ask about integral blinds where compatible. We can also discuss frame colours, handles, decorative glass and coordinating your new doors with existing windows.

Your questions, answered
The cost depends on the door system, measurements, glass, colour, hardware and installation work. Sidelights, access and changes to the opening can also affect the price. Send us a photograph and approximate measurements to start a conversation; the final specification is confirmed by survey.
