Even more choice
We have widened the range of our Premium entrance doors to allow you even more flexibility as you look to create the perfect entrance to your dream home. Our Premium entrance doors are both bold and distinctive, so we have created a warmer natural option whilst retaining the contemporary aesthetic afforded across our entrance door range.
Natural oak finishes & textured black indents & feature handles
A natural oak finish in malt and concrete add both warmth and depth to our entrance doors. The doors outerframe and any adjacent windows can be powder coated to any RAL colour whilst the flush door panel appears like a solid wooden door, creating a feature both internally and externally with a contemporary timber door sat alongside our aluminium windows.
Textured black indents and feature handles are now available as an option to stainless steel. Black is a top trend for interior fixtures and fittings so our black finishing detail adds more choice across our Premium door range.
Natural oak veneer finishes are available throughout our Premium range.
Textured black indents and feature handles work particularly well with our natural oak finishes.
These new features can be viewed in our Leeds & Weybridge showrooms
SAFETY & SECURITY
TOUGH LOCKS
Security Lock Barrel Cylinders as standard
As part of our commitment to industry leading quality we offer high security, anti-snap, anti-drill, anti-pick and anti-bump lock cylinders as standard throughout our entire range of doors. These premium lock barrels are 3-star diamond rated BSI cylinders which exceeds the 2-star standard required for Secured by Design accreditation. We even supply these cylinders in doors with a half a barrel so internally the lock cylinder boasts all the same security benefits meaning that if an intruder does get into a property they will not be able to break-out through our doors.
Unlike other Secured by Design standard lock barrels, the keys for the barrels supplied by Express can be cut at any locksmith without the need for a specific lock card to have further keys cut. The lock barrels themselves are supplied by one of the worlds’ leading manufacturers of lock cylinders, which we think is the perfect complement to our industry leading range of products.
SOLIDITY COMES AS STANDARD
The manufacturing process includes injecting the door with a liquid component which sets rock-hard, making it light but as solid as concrete. It’s the perfect choice if you’re looking for something secure and reliable.
Our front entrance doors offer security features such as:
- Anti-snap/bump security cylinders offered as standard
- Five-point locking mechanism
Our dedication to quality engineering means that all our front doors are certified Secure By Design products.
DESIGNED FOR SAFETY
Your front entrance door will get a lot of use – that’s why we’ve designed them with the safety of you and your family in mind. Because all of our doors are bespoke we’ll always install your bottom threshold as flush as possible, making sure there are no trip hazards when coming in or out of your home.
