Endurance: we have only recently started installing Endurance doors, having carefully chosen the brand following extensive and in-depth research. The extremely strong timber doors have a timber core which is made from 17 crossed layers of engineered timber designed to provide unparalleled strength and a reassuring, high quality feel. Unlike other timber doors, Endurance doors have unique integrated moisture strips to prevent water ingress; effectively eradicating any risk of the door sticking or warping. When it comes to security Endurance fit the bill too as they meet the UK Police Initiative Secured by Design, with the option to upgrade to Federal UCF Locking Cylinder from Brisant. This is an intuitive locking system which knows when it’s under attack and features a hidden locking mechanism which will automatically engage to stop burglars from entering. Endurance doors are available in a wide range of attractive colours, wood finishes and thermally efficient glazing options, with choices to suit all styles of home.

Solid Core by Bevelpane: offering discerning homeowners an exceptional price point without having to compromise on quality, security or strength, Solid Core doors give significant rigidity. These robust doors are made from sixteen layers of laminated timber which runs in different directions to ensure enhanced strength. In addition, each door is fitted with a Yale Lockmaster Door Lock which comes with a 10 year security guarantee, Ultion Euro-Cylinder locks which have a £1000 anti snap guarantee and Sweet Door Furniture which has a 20 year anti corrosion guarantee. If you’re looking for a door which offers all the good looks of timber but with none of the drawbacks, choosing a Solid Core door could offer the perfect option.
