We Made a Door Designer That Could Replace Your Architect  

Posted

Walk down any street and you’ll likely see the same handful of door styles, colours, glazing patterns, and hardware finishes repeated over and over. While they might be functional, they’re often predictable, and in a world that celebrates individuality, why should your front door blend into the background? 

Your entrance is more than just a way to get inside; it’s the first impression your home makes. It reflects your personality, your taste, and the care you’ve invested in your property. That’s why we believe it should be as individual as you are, with the style, colour, and details that make it unmistakably yours. 

At Endurance Doors, we believe every homeowner should have the freedom to explore the full spectrum of design possibilities and push the boundaries of what a door can be. Whether you’re refreshing a tired exterior, adding kerb appeal or creating a bold statement entrance for your forever home, we give you the tools, options, and flexibility to make it happen. 

In this post, we’ll show you exactly how to bring your dream door to life, and how we put you in control at every stage of the journey, from the first click to the final installation.

Benefits of Designing Your Door in Real Time 

Designing your new door in real time means you can see your ideas take shape instantly. Instead of guessing how a certain colour, glazing style, or hardware finish might look, you can experiment with different combinations on the spot and compare results straight away. This makes the process faster, more enjoyable, and more accurate, so you can be confident the final design will look exactly as you imagined. 

For homeowners, this real-time view removes the uncertainty that can come with big design choices. You can quickly rule out options that don’t work, fine-tune the ones that do, and make sure every detail reflects your personal style. It’s an empowering, stress-free way to plan your perfect entrance, without any costly surprises when the door arrives. 

Door Customisation Options: Colours, Glazing and Hardware Choices Explained 

If you’ve never tried our virtual door designer before, you’re in for a treat. We’ll walk you through the process step by step, putting you firmly in control from start to finish. 

It all begins with selecting your door type and frame shape, then moving on to the style itself. With over 85 unique designs to choose from, there’s something to suit every taste and every home, whether you’re after a timeless classic or a bold, contemporary statement. 

Next comes the colour. With more than 20 door colour options available, you can choose a door colour that matches your existing windows, complements your home’s character, or makes a statement with an on-trend shade. Whatever you choose, our virtual door designer makes it easy to bring your vision to life. 

If your chosen design includes any glass units, you’ll then explore a variety of glazing styles. Depending on the glazing cassette design, you can select anything from clear or obscure glass to intricate decorative patterns, allowing you to fine-tune both privacy and style. 

Finally, complete the look with your choice of hardware. From letterplates and handles to knockers, every piece is available in a range of colours and finishes, helping you create a cohesive, high-quality finish that’s unique to your home. 

Make Quicker, More Confident Choices with Real-Time Door Design 

One of the biggest challenges when choosing a new door is picturing how it will look once it’s installed. Our virtual door designer removes that uncertainty by showing your design in real time. You can instantly see how each style, colour, glazing option, and hardware choice changes the overall appearance, making it much easier to narrow down your favourites and move forward with confidence. 

To make the process even faster, we offer our free HomeView tool. Once you’ve created your door design, simply upload a photo of your home and place your new door directly into the image. You’ll see exactly how it will look in its real setting, helping you decide on the perfect combination without the guesswork. 

This quick, visual approach means fewer doubts, fewer changes later, and a decision you’ll feel great about, long before installation day.
