Why choose it
Timber Warmth, Aluminium Protection
Weatherproof exterior
The powder-coated aluminium shell shrugs off sun, wind, rain and salt air, protecting the timber beneath.
Low maintenance
No exterior repainting, an occasional wipe-down is all the outside ever needs.
Made to measure
Built to your exact opening in a wide choice of opening styles, in double or triple glazing.
Thermally efficient
An insulating timber core and high-performance glazing keep the warmth in and bills down.
Slim sightlines
Strong aluminium sections allow narrower frames and larger areas of glass.
Timber inside
The natural warmth and feel of real wood on every interior face.
Ironmongery
Door Handles
A choice of contemporary entrance handles, including Tokyo, Stockholm and Vitoria.
Handle options
Tokyo, Stockholm and Vitoria handle designs.
Glazing
Glass Options
Choose from a broad range of practical and decorative glazing to finish your door.
Toughened
Heat-treated for strength: it takes far more force to break, and breaks into small, rounded pieces that are less likely to cause injury.
Laminated
A clear interlayer bonds two panes together, so if the glass is broken the pieces stay put rather than falling away.
Opaque / obscure
Textured or frosted glazing that keeps a glazed door private without shutting out the light.
Featured designs
A choice of decorative glass patterns to add individual character while keeping a timeless look.
