uPVC Back Doors for Durability and Low Maintenance
When it comes to durability and low maintenance, uPVC back doors are hard to beat. Made from unplasticized polyvinyl chloride, these doors are resistant to weathering, and won’t warp, rot, or rust over time.
Good quality uPVC doors have excellent insulation properties, contributing to reduced energy bills by keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
The robust construction of good quality uPVC doors ensures enhanced security, offering peace of mind that your home is well-protected.
A Variety of uPVC Styles and Finishes
Available in a variety of styles and finishes, uPVC back doors can complement any home design, making them a versatile choice for homeowners.
White uPVC doors are the number one choice for back doors across the UK. This is because they are the best value whether you choose full length glazed or with the top half glazed and bottom solid. The white finish gives a clean and modern look that can suit any type of home.
All window ranges include back doors and patio doors to ensure matching frames styles and colours.
A Functional, Secure and Attractive uPVC Door Range
Double Glazed uPVC doors are exceptionally easy to clean, requiring only a simple wipe down to maintain their pristine appearance.
For those looking to personalise their door even further, there are options to add decorative glass, door furniture in a range of finishes, or even coloured frames to truly make your back door a reflection of your personal taste. uPVC back doors offer a blend of functionality, security, and clean looks tailored to your home.
Your new uPVC back door is available in many colours but are usually chosed to match windows and patio doors.
Composite Back Doors for Superior Strength and Insulation
If you’re looking for a back door that combines strength with aesthetics, composite back doors are the way to go. Constructed from a mix of materials, including a wood solid core, uPVC, and insulating foam, a composite door offers superior strength and thermal efficiency.
Composite doors replicate the look of external timber doors without the associated maintenance hassles. With a composite back door, you get the best of both worlds—an attractive appearance and robust security features.
Composite back doors are more expensive than uPVC but if you are looking for a particular look such as in a farm or country environment where you might prefer a rustic look, composite doors offer more design possibilities.
Matching Front and Back Door Styles
It has recently become popular to match the back door with the front door. Front and rear composite doors have dual colour options. Most of our customers choose white so that the interior looks light and bright and is neutral to work with any interior.
Composite front doors have a variety of styles where a back and front door will complement each other but allow for the differing light and privacy needs.
As you can see from the image here showing a farmhouse style composite door, the front door features a small glazed obscure panel and the back door has a glazed top half.
Stable Back Doors for Traditional Charm and Modern Functionality
Stable doors, also known as Dutch doors, are divided horizontally into two separate halves, allowing the top and bottom sections to open independently.
The bottom half of a stable door can remain locked, providing security and privacy while still allowing interaction with the outside through the open top half. This is particularly useful when there are children or pets in the house.
Crafted with attention to detail, they can improve your home’s light and ventilation, creating warm and inviting spaces. Whether you’re looking to enrich your kitchen with increased airflow or add a rustic flair to your garden entrance, these doors are a versatile choice. Stable doors are designed to bring a touch of traditional charm to your home while offering contemporary features that make everyday life easier.
Other Exterior Back Door Options
Depending on the size of your opening, you have several options. A small set of bifold doors may allow a larger opening without the swing of a larger door. Maybe the opening is big enough for a pair of French doors or sliding patio doors.
If you are considering a new external door as part of new kitchen plans, don’t forget that your door may be better sited somewhere else. This is your chance to get the external back doors that you really want.
Why Upgrade Your Back Door?
One of the most significant benefits of upgrading your back door is improved energy efficiency. Modern back doors are designed to provide better insulation, reducing heat loss and keeping your home at a comfortable temperature year-round. By investing in an energy-efficient back door, you can lower your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
Enhanced Home Security
Security is a top priority for any homeowner. New back doors come equipped with advanced locking mechanisms and reinforced materials, offering enhanced protection against break-ins. Whether you choose a uPVC, composite, or stable back door, you can rest assured that your home is secure.
Choose from a range of styles and finishes to find the perfect match for your home.
Back Doors for Garages
Adding a back door and window to a garage can help you get more use from your garage.
Improved ventilation from a back door allows for fresh air circulation, making the space more comfortable for activities beyond just parking, such as using it as a workshop or hobby area.
The addition of a window increases natural light, reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day and creating a more inviting atmosphere. Better security features, such as reinforced doors and frosted glass windows, provide peace of mind while maintaining privacy.
Accessibility through a back door also adds convenience, allowing for easy entry and exit without opening the main garage door. These improvements not only transform the garage into a multi-purpose area but also increase the overall value and appeal of your home.
Timber Back Doors
Timber back doors offer a timeless and natural charm. Wooden doors bring a classic touch, effortlessly blending with various architectural styles.
Available in a wide range of styles and finishes, timber doors can be customised to match individual design preferences, whether you prefer a rustic, traditional look or a sleek, modern appearance.
Timber doors are strong and provide excellent insulation, helping to maintain energy efficiency in your home. However, to preserve their elegance and functionality, regular maintenance such as sealing and varnishing is essential, ensuring that the wood remains protected from the elements while retaining its warm, inviting appearance.
