We’ve noticed that UK homeowners are really loving double doors – and for us, it’s easy to see why. They offer the ideal blend of practicality and style, instantly elevating the aesthetics of any home by creating a grand entrance and improving its accessibility.
Even better still, they‘re designed to play a starring role in any homeowner’s efforts to increase a home’s natural light intake, should they opt for doors with larger glazed areas. With 85+ styles available, you’ll find the perfect door to suit both traditional and more modern homes.
Security & Energy Efficiency Features
Our double doors do more than look the part. Our high-performing composite doors are engineered to deliver outstanding thermal efficiency and security and make an immediate impact on the comfort and cosiness of your home from the day of installation.
Features like our multi-point locking systems are integral to increasing a door’s security. They engage at multiple points along the door frame for superior protection and robustness.
At the heart of each Endurance door is a solid timber core, which plays a key role in both security and insulation. They also contribute to the overall thickness of our doors, which are on average 10% thicker than alternatives. This provides a heavier, more premium and secure feel for your home’s first line of protection.
For homeowners who place extra emphasis on security, we offer a range of SBD-compliant doors. They’re designed and tested to achieve ‘Secured By Design’ status, a UK Police standard which is awarded to doors that can withstand a rigorous testing process. SBD doors are tested to withstand manual attacks with various tools, including crowbars, mole grips, chisels, knives, and screwdrivers, as well as hard-body impacts.
Design Ideas & Finishes
We also boast a wide range of aesthetic possibilities with our double doors. For example, we offer double doors with minimal or no glazing, as well as doors with much higher glazed areas. Or, if you want glass but are concerned about privacy, we offer frosted or patterned designs.
With various door styles available across four distinct ranges, we can enhance any style of home, from modern to heritage, country, and beyond. And, with 20+ colours to choose from, we can bring your door vision to life.
Our extensive range of hardware, including knockers, handles, letterplates, pull bars and more, gives you countless ways to finish your door to make it feel like it’s truly your own, unique to your home and your preferences.
Suitable Materials: Composite vs Solid Wood
There’s often debate as to the best option for modern double doors, composites or solid wood. In reality, there’s a clear winner.
Composite doors provide superior strength, are low maintenance and highly weather resistant, and provide insulation benefits that any alternative couldn’t come close to matching.
While solid wood doors offer a traditional aesthetic and the appeal of classic craftsmanship, they require more frequent upkeep than composites and are prone to warping or swelling, which diminishes return from your door and worsens its performance.
