ABOUT BACK DOORS

Back doors are available in UPVC plastic, timber, or aluminium. They may have plain or decorated glazed panels. They normally open inward, but may open outward. They are specially design to provide good security, and to withstand the elements. They are very much more durable and secure than interior doors.

The leading UK manufacturers of back doors, listed after the panel of sponsored links, have comprehensive websites, with product catalogues and information on materials, colours, and designs for back doors.

LEADING UK BACK DOOR SUPPLIERS

Jeld-Wen is a leading supplier of back doors and other external doors. It supplies front doors in timber, UPVC, and composite doorset construction. Timber back doors are supplied in panel, glazed, or boarded styles, in oak, hemlock, redwood, softwood or plywood. UPVC back doors are available in a wide range of styles, many of which contain decorative glazed panels. The composite construction combines a hardwood frame with a polyurethane core panel and a GRP (glass reinforced polyester) skin. The panel has six times better insulation than a timber door.

You can choose from a range of glazing and security options, and a variety of styles is available in white, mahogany, or golden oak effect. All Anglian Home Improvement residential PVCu back doors incorporate a multiple locking system. Their robust construction and the pins locked within the hinges help resist heavy attacks. Welded joints give more inherent strength than mechanical screw joints, and sculptured door panels are made from resilient vacuum-formed plastic which is then reinforced through the centre.
