uPVC Door

Made-to-measure uPVC doors for homes in the UK

uPVC Door is a British company specialising in the supply and installation of uPVC doors for homes. Its activity focuses on front and back doors, although it also manufactures doors for sheds, garden rooms, outhouses, garages and porches. The company presents itself as the UK's longest-established uPVC door company and has been operating since 2010.

It offers two service options: full installation by its own teams or supply only for those who prefer to carry out the installation themselves. The catalogue includes front doors, back doors, doors with cat flaps, French doors and sliding patio doors, all of which can be personalised using an online configurator that provides an instant price.

Personalisation and finishes

The doors are made to measure and can be configured in seven colours: white, agate grey, anthracite grey, black, Chartwell green, Irish oak, golden oak and rosewood. The company sends free colour samples to your home so that you can check the actual finish before deciding.

The online configurator allows you to choose between different ranges — modern, traditional and cottage — and to select hardware in five finishes: polished chrome, graphite, antique black, polished gold and white. Each finish includes a coordinated range of handles, letterboxes, knockers, spyholes and door numbers or letters.

Glass options range from decorative glass with bevelled edges and lead to sandblasted designs, as well as backing glass from the Pilkington range with different levels of opacity. A bespoke glass design service is also offered to reproduce traditional designs or incorporate sandblasted house numbers and names in flag windows, side panels and top lights.

Security and technical features

The doors come as standard with an Avantis multi-point locking system, certified Secure by Design and police approved, which according to the company has the largest hooks and central deadbolt among uPVC locks in the UK. The system is accredited with class 4 corrosion resistance according to BS EN 1670, with BS 6375 certification for operation and weathertightness, and with PAS24 enhanced security approval.

The company backs its doors with a ten-year guarantee and offers a £5,000 homeowner security guarantee. Technical features include UV-stable uPVC, twin rebated weather seals inside and out, double and triple glazed safety glass compliant with British Standards, weathersealed threshold and rain deflector fitted as standard, and a dual-sealed wind-resistant letterbox.

Buying process and customer service

The company has a sales and online enquiry line, with telephone support from 8:00 in the morning on Mondays. It offers free delivery and finance available. In its presentation it highlights that it does not use pushy salesmen and that the buying process can be completed through its online configurator. The average delivery time indicated is four weeks.

The company has insurance approval for its multi-point locks and its doors are manufactured in accordance with British regulations.
