Respect the character of the entrance
Panel proportions, glazing and surrounding joinery influence how a replacement looks. Bring photographs of the whole frontage rather than the old door alone.
Door styles and details
Traditional Front Doors
Compare traditional front door panels, decorative glass and heritage-style hardware with a modern fitted doorset.
Plan the right specification
Make the details work together
A new door needs to suit the opening and the way you use it. These are the decisions to discuss with the team.
Read the door buying checklist →Check restrictions before ordering
If the property is listed or in a conservation area, ask the relevant authority whether the proposed change needs consent. Do not assume that matching a colour is the only requirement.

Clear quotation
Know what the fitting quote includes
Ask for the selected product, frame, glazing, hardware and threshold in writing. Confirm preparation, removal, disposal, finishing work, payment terms and guarantee details before proceeding.
Final sizes and suitability need a survey. Tell us about access needs or changes to the opening at the start.
