Front doors for every style of house

Front doors used to be seen as a display of wealth and one of the most important features of a house. Property owners would have grand and ornate doors that projected their authority and status. External doors might not be the status symbol they once were, but they still have kerb appeal and create the first impression of your home.

A front door that complements the period of your house will make your property more appealing. We recommend choosing your door based on the style and age of your home. We also recommend choosing a colour based on the period and the colour of the brick or stone.

At Everest, we have a wide range of front doors that can all be configured into hundreds of different options unique to your needs. All of our front doors are made-to-measure for a perfect fit to reduce draughts. With locking systems that meet British Security Standards, you can relax knowing your door will protect you from unwanted burglars.

Choose from popular uPVC front doors, secure composite front doors, contemporary aluminium front doors or traditional wooden front doors. All doors are available in different panel configurations, with or without glazing and with a variety of front door furniture.

What is the best front door colour?

To choose the best front door colour for your home, you first need to consider the architectural style and the location of your house.

Also think about the style of your house and the colour of the brick or building materials to choose a colour that complements your home.

You might also want to consider that different colours have different meanings, for example in Feng Shui, a black door is considered protective and a powerful shield.

If you are planning to sell your house, it would be wise to stick with classic 'safe' colours of black, red, dark blue and dark green.

What type of door is best for my home?

How do you choose a new front door, where do you start? A few simple questions will help you find the perfect front door for you.

How durable do you want your door to be?

  • uPVC –  a material lifespan of around 30 years
  • Composite - a GRP door should have a lifetime of 35 years
  • Timber - can last for a lifetime, but needs constant maintenance every few years
  • Aluminium - the most robust material with a lifespan of at least 45 years

What type of property do you live in?

  • Period property - Opt for timber or composite panel doors, avoid uPVC as it might devalue your home
  • Contemporary - a sleek aluminium or contemporary style composite door would best suit a modern home
  • Victorian or Edwardian - a four-panel timber door with two glazed panels of obscure patterned glass
  • Country cottage - a stable door for the kitchen and possibly as a front door
  • Townhouse - a period townhouse looks best with a traditional timber panel door

Everest Customers Also Asked

Are front doors with glass safe?

Glass doors are safe. The glass used in Everest glazed doors are fitted with 6.8mm laminated glass as standard, which makes breaking the glass incredibly difficult. Our laminated security glass surpasses every security standard with the extra layer of laminate holding the shards in place should the glass break and ensuring there is no hole left for an intruder to pass through.

How much does a new front door cost?

A large number of variables influence the price of a door including material, construction, if locks and hardware have been added and if the installation is included. The cheapest doors are sold as basic slabs – just the door leaf with no finish or hardware added. All Everest front doors are sold as door sets that come pre-assembled with the frame locks and all hardware in place and we then include the cost of installation.

What is Secured by Design and PAS 24?

Secured by Design (SBD) is an accreditation that consumers can look for when selecting products to have confidence that a door, window or lock meets a certain level of quality.

To achieve an SPD licence, the products must meet requirements to prevent crime set to a 'Police Preferred Specification'.

SBD approved products can only be produced by a manufacturer with a Secured by Design licence.

Read more: What is Secured by Design...

Publicly Available Specification (PAS) is a standard set by an industry to ensure that all manufacturers in an industry are making and selling products that reach the industry benchmark for quality.

PAS is overseen by the BSI (British Standards Institution) who manage the setting and distribution of the PAS standards.

PAS 24 and Secured by Design are independent of each other. However, most SBD products must meet PAS 24 standards as a minimum alongside other SBD requirements.

PAS 24 or an equivalent standard is required to meet Building Regulations for new builds properties.

Do I need planning permission to change my front door?

You can change the front door of your property without needing planning approval. However, it is always advisable to speak to your local authority, as there may be conditions attached to previous permissions or covenants covering what you can and cannot do.
