OUR RANGE
MAKE A LASTING FIRST IMPRESSION
We offer two luxury ranges of entrance doors, our Premium range and our statement Pivot doors both designed to act as a real statement piece with any property. Our XP77 panel doors and Smarts Signature doors are both quality front doors with large custom options but at a much more modest price tag.
We blend design & quality to bring you the finest premium doors available. Our solid panels sit flush against your door's external & internal sash surface, providing strength, clean lines, concealed hinges & a huge range of styles from timeless classics through to distinctive modern aesthetics, all available in a huge choice of colours, plus woodgrain and metal finishes.
Boasting many of the same features as our best aluminium doors, the XP77 is a more cost-effective option. Built with a glazed in panel to create designer inspired styles, they look great whilst still offering superb security features & thermal performance.
Designed for everyday budgets, the Signature doors are the most effective within our range and available in a huge range of styles, colours and custom options.
Available in a range of modern design that offer huge widths up to 2000mm wide and heights well over three metres tall. Rather than traditional door hinges the doors pivot thanks to an off centre rotation axis that adds a dramatic effect when opening the door.

We are watertight!! 👏🏼 I’m so pleased with how our doors from expressbifoldingdoors look!
Things haven’t quite gone to plan over here… our finished by spring goal has slipped a little. Waiting on trades, damaged furniture, faulty light fittings, even the media wall TV has arrived damaged!
It seems to be everything that comes through the door and the replacement’s turn up in worse condition 🙃
Lots of back and forth resolving things has taken the wind out of my sails, two steps forward three back but that’s the reality of a full house renovation, nothing ever goes to plan, expect the unexpected! Or in our case expected 😅
But… I woke up to this view this morning, hare running round the field it felt like a reset.
Spring is definitely in the air, the sun is shining and I have my positive pants on today 🌤️
The main bathroom has been tiled, the mood lighting and plumbing done and thankfully we now have two working toilet’s!
It’s a small but mighty win after the four of us and guest’s sharing our en suite for month’s!
Manifesting a finished home, maybe not by spring but hopefully by summer 😅🤞🏻✨
