What are uPVC doors?
uPVC doors have frames made from tough, rigid plastic, with glazed or solid panels. They need no repainting, so a quick wipe keeps them looking smart. Also, modern doors use multi-point locking for extra security.
Many homes in Southgate still have old timber or worn plastic doors. For example, tired doors can warp, stick or let in draughts. When you replace them, the entrance looks better and your hallway feels warmer.
Why choose uPVC doors in Southgate?
Homeowners in Southgate choose uPVC doors for four main reasons. First, they want low upkeep. Second, they want a warmer home. Third, they want better security. Finally, they want a smart look that lasts.
Strong security
Modern uPVC doors use multi-point locking, so the door locks in several places. Therefore, it holds firmly in the frame. Ask us how the locking works on the doors we supply.
A warmer hallway
Good seals and sealed glazing help keep heat inside. As a result, your hallway feels more comfortable in winter. In addition, a well-fitted door cuts down on draughts.
Low upkeep
uPVC does not need painting or treating. Meanwhile, a quick wipe keeps the door looking smart. Because of this, you spend less time on maintenance.
Style and colour
You can choose from many door styles and colours. For instance, some homeowners pick a classic panelled look, while others prefer a modern glazed design. We show you the options at your free visit.
Door styles and finishes
Front doors
A front door sets the tone for your home. Panelled doors give a classic look, while glazed doors let light into the hallway. We show you the options at your free visit.
Back, French and patio doors
We also fit back doors, French doors and patio doors. French doors open the room to the garden, while sliding doors save space. Ask us which suits your opening.
Handles, letterboxes and hardware
Hardware finishes the look of the door. For example, you can choose from different handles and letterboxes. Then you can match them to your other fittings.

- The size of the door and frame changes the cost.

Looking after your uPVC doors
uPVC doors need only a little care, so a few simple habits go a long way. Wipe the door and frame with a soft cloth and mild soap. Check that the seals look healthy, because worn seals let in draughts. In addition, keep the hinges and locks clean and lightly lubricated. Then the door works smoothly for years.
