Identify The Style Of Your Door.
Homeowners may not be aware of the type of door installed on their property. Because new homeowners did not choose the door, a door would more than likely have been installed previously.
When choosing to upgrade the new doors you may ask yourself, what kind of door would you like?. Sometimes it is not an easy question to answer.
Take a look at these simple styles and design to help identify the type of door you currently have.
The Front Door.
The front door is at the entrance to your home. It is the part in which people approach to enter your home. It is also very important for the door to make a good impression on visitors.
Some side doors are also entrance doors as well. However, many homeowners are not as concerned with how they look as they can often unseen.
Because of the house age, it may dictate whether or not you have installed a traditional door or a contemporary styled door. However, because more than 67% of intruders go to the front door it is always best to have a secure front door.
With the front door being in use most of the time, you will need to make sure to use a good quality material and design. Double glazed and triple glazed options are available on front doors using materials such as uPVC, aluminium, composite and timber.
Bi-Folding Doors.
If you want to create a spacious feel, Bi-fold doors are a great way to open up your living space. They allow you to open up the full house or room unlike sliding doors, these can only open half way.
Choosing a bi-folding door will allow more space and light to enter your home. There are two options to choose from uPVC and aluminium. Aluminium has a slimmer frame and can come in a wide range of stylish colours.
Patio Doors.
Patio doors slide close and open allowing access to the outside of your home effortless. They are perfect for those who love to spend time outside in the garden or on a balcony. They are very useful for an opening where external and internal space is limited. This makes patio sliding doors a lot more practical.
Patio doors can come in aluminium and uPVC. You can choose the most suitable type of material for your house. Because they lack big frames, they are perfect for views and allowing more light into your home.
French Doors.
French doors are used to add style and character to a home. They can come in wide range of materials such as uPVC, aluminium and timber. Furthermore, they have multiple design option and colours to choose from.
These doors are more effective when trying to gain access to balconies. Or used between rooms as a way of opening up areas. Now that you can get triple glazing for french doors it helps to make them even warmer in the winter months.
