Security, considered

Finishing touches

Explore BLOK and BERGEN fittings, Montreal and Amsterdam pull handles, letterplates and an optional Tedee smart lock.

Light, your way

A little more detail

Your Gerda questions, answered.

What is included in the starting price?

The £2,895 figure is Spectrum’s supplied starting price for a fully fitted Optima 60 door. Your design, finish, glazing, hardware, dimensions, sidelights and installation requirements are confirmed in a written quotation. It is not a fixed price for every combination.

What is the difference between Tempo and Classic?

Both belong to the Optima 60 family. Tempo offers contemporary designs and glazing arrangements; Classic uses traditional pressed panel details. The UK brochure shows six Classic designs and a wider Tempo collection.

What door sizes are available?

The UK brochure lists Tempo widths of 840–1130mm and Classic widths of 920–1030mm. Heights and maximum sizes depend on the finish and design. Spectrum will measure the opening and confirm a suitable doorset.

Can I have different colours inside and outside?

The brochure offers different interior and exterior colours. Ask Spectrum to confirm the finish combination and any additional cost for your chosen design.

Can I add sidelights, a letterplate or a smart lock?

Yes, the brochure includes sidelights, toplights, letterplates and the optional Tedee smart lock. Availability and compatibility must be checked against your final door specification.
