To choose a different door/window just return to the home page. Disclaimer: actual door slab may be slightly smaller than shown | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Frame colours
Door frames are made of UPVC and are available in flat white or in woodgrain effect colours on the outside of the door only, so frames are always white on the inside.
Coloured frames are only available on open-in doors.
Disclaimer: We cannot guarantee to match existing colours. If you need a colour match, please email us with your address and ask for a sample of the colour you need.
Handles
When you choose chrome, gold or brushed aluminium, you will get the "Trojan Sparta" door handle, a sleek, modern and multipoint sprung handle that conveys style and sophistication. Made out of stainless steel.
For white or black handles, you will get "Fab and Fix" handles.
Lever or pad
Normal (lever handle both sides):
This handle allows to open the door from both sides without a key.
The advantage of this normal handle is that you can close the door and still get in from the outside without a key, unless you lock it.
Pad (lever inside, pad outside):
A pad does not allow the door to open from the outside without the key.
So the advantage is added security, but you have to be careful not to lock yourself out.
Both types require the handle to be lifted in order to engage the multi point locks. Once lifted the key can be turned to fully lock.
External cill
Most doors require an external cill to drain water away correctly. If you already have a stone or tiled cill as part of the building you may not require a cill.
Your door will be manufactured to the sizes given including whichever cill and threshold is chosen.
For example at an order height of 2100mm with a cill, the actual door will be 2070 + 30mm for the cill.
The cill width is 100mm wider than the door projecting 50mm on each side. It's easy to cut if you wish otherwise.
85mm stub cill
This cill only protrudes from the external door face by 15mm.
150mm normal cill
Our most common cill size covers most situations. Protrudes from the external door face by 80mm. Recommended.
Please note: The cill height is 30mm and if a cill is chosen then these 30mm will be included within the overall height of the door.
For more advice please contact us.
Side window cill
Most windows require an external cill to drain water away correctly. If you already have a stone or tiled cill as part of the building you may not require a cill.
85mm stub cill
This cill only protrudes from the external window face by 15mm.
150mm normal cill
Most common cill size covers most situations. Protrudes from the external window face by 80mm. Recommended.
Please note: The cill height is 30mm and if a cill is chosen then these 30mm will be included within the overall height of the side window.
For more advice please contact us.

Open inside/outside
Open-in: Typically doors open inwards into a building. High quality Slimline adjustable hinges are provided, with a good 38mm clearance, so usually no side extender is needed.
Open-out: The hinges are on the outside, using a non adjustable "Butt" design.
The distance from the hinge to the edge of the outer frame is 38mm for open-in doors:
Hinges Left/Right
For open-in doors, we supply the high quality Slim-line hinges that are adjustable.
Open-out doors come with non-adjustable "Butt" hinges.
Hinges can be at the left or right side of the door. The handle is always at the opposite side.
In the case of a door with an additional side panel, we would recommend that the hinge be placed on the wall side.
The distance from the hinge to the edge of the outer frame is 38mm:
Frame extenders
A frame extender increases the thickness of a door frame at a specified side. Great for properties with deep plaster, render or tiles over tiles.
Some fitters buy extenders as a precaution, for example where the door opening has not been built yet. Extenders can be modified to accomodate inconsistent side walls.
Extenders simply clip or slide on the door profile as you can see on the picture.
Example of 20mm extender sliding
Thresholds
Your door will be manufactured to the sizes given including whichever cill and threshold is chosen.
Normal threshold:
The normal UPVC threshold is 48 to 68mm high (not including the optional cill), with the benefit of a better seal and insulation.
Low threshold:
Very low aluminium threshold 15 to 25mm tall. Cill optional. Part M complaint.
Low threshold with cill:
Low aluminium threshold, 15 to 25mm high with built-in ramp which is also an integrated cill, so no extra cill needed. Part M wheelchair compliant.
Note: On inward opening doors, please make sure there is sufficient clearance between the bottom of the door and the floor inside.
