At Three Counties, we offer a range of door styles to suit all kinds of homes. Explore this article to find the right door for you.
Composite Doors
The entrance to your home is the first thing that people notice when they visit your home, so having a door that encapsulates your home’s style is a great idea. Not only this, but a front door is the first barrier to entering your home; a sturdy and robust front door gives you peace of mind that you are safe and comfortable at all times. At Three Counties, we would recommend a composite door for your new front door, these doors combine a solid timber core and a plastic protective coating that protects your door from the elements and strong forces. The solid timber core acts as a solid barrier to your home, and the outer layer maintains the strength and style of your door against harsh weather conditions for long-lasting design. Composite doors come in a range of styles, colours and finishes, which allows you to customise your front door to suit the existing appearance of your home. With our doors, you can enhance the curb appeal of your home and feel proud of its aesthetic appeal.
Bifold Doors
Transform your home and add a modern touch to your space with aluminium bifold doors; these doors open up your home and allow for a seamless transition to your garden space. Aluminium is a highly durable material that is designed to withstand strong forces whilst still providing modern aesthetics. Bifold doors feature folding panels and a sliding roller track in which your doors will fold all the way back into a compact space to allow you to enjoy your garden space. These doors are perfect for hosting parties, family gatherings, summer BBQs and indoor outdoor dining allowing the fresh air to enter your home. Bifold doors are ideal for larger spaces as you can choose from a large number of panels. Bifold doors have become highly popular in recent years due to their sleek and slimline design; even in the winter months, you can enjoy your beautiful outdoor views with their large glass panels and slim aluminium frames.
French Doors
If you have a traditional style home and are looking to upkeep your classic appearance, then our French doors are the perfect choice; these doors offer an elegant and timeless design that will never go out of style. French doors feature double hinged doors that open outwards to your garden space, their easy to use design is popular with many homeowners. All of our doors come with double glazing as standard; double glazing allows you to enjoy consistent temperatures in your home, preventing the cold air from entering your home in the winter months and the warm air in the summer months from entering your home.
Patio Doors
Enhance the back of your home with sliding patio doors that are a stylish addition to any home. Patio doors slide in front of one another to allow you to access your outdoor space easily; this sliding method takes up minimal space and is perfect for homes that lack space. Unlike bifold doors, patio doors cannot open the full way due to the panels sliding in front of one another. However, they still allow you to open up your home and create a harmonious passage to your garden and patio space, perfect both in the summer months when enjoying the warm summer sun or in the winter months with uninterrupted views and consistent temperatures. Our patio doors come with multi-point locking systems, which allow you to feel safe and comfortable in your home at all times, knowing your loved ones and prized possessions are secure from any potential intruders.
Choosing the right door for your home
Whilst all doors offer a range of advantages, it is important to look at where in your home you are looking to upgrade. If your front door needs replacing, our composite doors are a secure and sturdy option suitable for all styles of homes. If you are looking to transform your patio space, French doors are ideal for more traditional homes, whereas sliding and bifold doors complement more modern-style homes. Consider your budget as well, as different door styles come with different price points.
