The characteristics of timber external doors
Timber is an exceptional raw material and one often used in construction. Timber external doors today are not only a decorative element but also a durable structure with very good thermal values. In the post below we explain what distinguishes timber entrance doors and why their purchase is worth considering.
Timber doors for years
Timber is a synonym for longevity. Entrance doors made from it serve their users for years. Unlike cheaper doors made from other materials, timber doors do not deform, and regular maintenance extends their service life. Doors made of timber have excellent thermal insulation values. They can be installed in energy-efficient and passive houses, because they are airtight, and their thermal insulation coefficient is as low as 0.9 W/(m2K) for doors 92mm thick.
Security at the highest level
Timber is a naturally durable and hard-wearing raw material, and combined with various security elements it creates doors with enhanced resistance to burglary. Solid timber doors are fitted with a range of security features such as: P4 burglary-resistant glazing, multipoint locking, security cylinders of class C and anti-lift bolts.
A touch of luxury in your home
Timber is regarded as the most stylish material, adding chic and exceptional elegance to the interior of a flat or house. Timber entrance doors are extremely attractive and visually appealing, which is why they can draw attention as one of the most distinctive elements of a building. Entrance doors with a wide variety of patterns and original hardware are available on the market. Doors with glazing made of ornamental, reflective and stained glass enjoy great popularity.
Every species of timber has a unique colour and grain pattern. Doors of noble oak delight the eye with shades of yellow and brown. Popular pine doors come in colours from white to orange-brown. Larch doors are dark brown, and those made from the Asian timber Red Meranti take on a yellowish-grey or red-brown colour. At the customer’s request we make doors in any colour from the RAL palette.
