Choosing the Right Front Door for Your Home

Choosing the perfect front door for your home is an important decision that can influence your home’s appeal, security, and energy efficiency. With several styles offered – such as composite doors, stable doors, and residence doors – it can be challenging to know which options suit you and your home. This guide will take you through the door options so you can be confident in choosing the right door.

Exploring Your Options

Composite Doors

Composite doors are an appealing choice for many homeowners for many reasons. They are a combination of materials including wood, PVC, and other materials. At Bergson and Eaton, we manufacture our composite doors with a 48mm durable core made with timber. This means they are secure, robust, and stand the test of time. 

Benefits of Composite Doors:

• Durability: Due to their strong material properties, composite doors are made to withstand weather conditions – making them resistant to warping, cracking, and fading.
• Security: Not only do our doors have a strong timber core, but our composite doors have heavy-duty hinges, multipoint locking systems, and Ultion locks to ensure maximum security. 
• Customisable: We take pride in the range of colours, styles, and features of composite doors that we offer here at Bergson and Eaton. These composite doors come in over 23 colour options, specified shade options, features like handles and knockers as well as the overall style. 

Stable Doors

Stable doors are a unique option that combines a traditional look with modern features. These are becoming increasingly more popular than they were before, due to the fact that they stand out compared to other front doors. They are split horizontally which divides the doors into 2 sections; they can be opened and closed with the bottom section locked into position. 

Benefits of Stable Doors:

• Versatility: Homeowners opt for stable doors as they are great for ventilation without having to leave the door open. They are ideal if you have pets too as they allow you to keep them contained whilst opening the door or enjoying the fresh air. 
• Aesthetic Appeal: Stable Doors have a traditional charm which adds character to your property. This makes them a great choice not only for country homes but adding character to contemporary homes. 
• Security: At Bergson and Eaton, we prioritise security for our customers; our stable doors come with options for PAS 24 compliant security. As they can be made with uPVC and composite materials, their durability also gives them maximised security. 

Residence Doors

At Bergson and Eaton, we offer our Residence collection; these are a high-quality timber alternative with three profiles to choose from. They maintain the characteristics of timber but have enhanced properties such as being weatherproof, as well as not rotting or distorting like timber doors do. 

Benefits of Residence Doors: 

• Energy Efficiency: Residence doors offer excellent energy efficiency with A++ ratings as well as multi-chambered profiles for superior insulation. They can be double and triple glazed and often outperform most alternative front doors. 
• Security: Their robust properties make them highly secure and these doors also have a multi-point locking system. Due to the fact they do not warp or rot like wooden doors, your protection will never be compromised. 
• Customisable: Our Residence collection offers a wide range of styles of doors including composite, stable, fire doors and aluminium residential doors. They have an option for up to nine internal chambers and a variety of different colours to choose from.
