Is your front door winter ready?

Consider all the benefits a new front door will bring. A good quality front door is a sensible investment on a whole host of levels; firstly because it will withstand harsh winter weather conditions. A new front door from London Door Company is made from Accoya, a hard-wearing sustainable timber that’s engineered to last for many years. Several coats of quality paint protect your new front door and keep it looking good even when it’s exposed to wind, rain, sleet and frost.

Safe as houses

Even if your new front door is in an authentic Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian style, it will incorporate a range of modern security features that will keep unwanted visitors at bay. Kick plates are built into the lower panels of the door to strengthen it, and it will be fitted with the latest locking systems that are easy for you to operate from the inside but impossible for intruders penetrate.

Have a plan

Showcase the period of your property with a door that features original or personalised glazing details. An experienced door designer can discuss a range of options with you to ensure that your door design is unique to your home. If you have a fanlight or sidelights, these can be restored or refurbished at the same time as your door to create a bespoke entrance. There are a number of colour options available too – why stick to black or white when your door could be expertly hand-painted in a soft pastel shade or a maybe you want a vibrant pop of colour to welcome your guests.
