Your front door is the first thing that your visitors see and you want it to make a good impression.
In addition, according to the Energy Saving Trust, a properly fitted external door will reduce both your heating bills and your carbon footprint. You have a wide range of choices when it comes to materials, so here are some of the most popular options.
UPVC doors
Affordable, easy to maintain, durable, secure, with great thermal and sound insulation properties and with a wide range of designs and colours to choose from, uPVC doors Hereford from a specialist provider such as truhouse.co.uk/double-glazing/doors/upvc-doors/hereford are a popular choice.
Steel doors
Steel doors are the best option when strength and security are your top priorities. They may scratch and dent but they can last up to 100 years! They also keep out a lot of noise.
Aluminium doors
As a corrosion-resistant material that lasts for over 40 years, aluminium is a popular choice for slimline patio and bifold door frames. The minimalist yet sophisticated appearance of these doors has become popular in the last couple of decades.
Wooden doors
These are the traditional choice and as a front door material, wood still has a lot to offer. It is a natural insulator, is highly versatile, and has a timeless appeal. However, timber prices are expensive and you will need to maintain it regularly with paint or varnish.
Composite doors
Many people looking for uPVC doors in Hereford choose composite doors. These are usually timber doors coated in layers of uPVC so you get the benefits of both materials. Composite doors will last for decades because the uPVC protects them from warping and decay. They also come in a huge range of colours and are superbly stylish and elegant.
