UPVC doors

UPVC doors are the most popular choice for UK homeowners. As a material, UPVC is affordable, easy to maintain and incredible durable making it a great option for doors. Particularly when compare to higher-end materials such as timber and aluminium.

UPVC stands for Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride. It’s a form of plastic which is also known as rigid PVC as it’s hard and inflexible. Unplasticised simply means that no additives have been inserted during the manufacturing process.s

After it has been manufactured, many production companies reinforce the UPVC by inserting a core of galvanised steel to increase strength and give you peace of mind when it comes to security and longevity of your windows and doors.
