Location: Wokingham
Our Wokingham homeowners chose a pebble grey composite front door from the Apeer 70 collection for their newly built brick-enclosed porch.
The Detached property is located at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac in Wokingham. The homeowners had already had their enclosed porch built to increase the overall space of their entrance and improve the aesthetics.
Our designer, George, contacted the homeowners to discuss their requirements. Part of their brief was an entrance door that would improve their home’s overall security and energy efficiency and complement the craftsmanship of their new enclosed porch. High-performing security and safety features were key requirements for our client.
Our client had already decided what they required regarding the front door design. With such a clear brief, George discussed the various energy-efficient double-glazed front doors and which style might look best in their home and recommended that they visit our Bracknell showroom to view the range of uPVC and composite front doors we have on display.
After viewing our wide range of front doors on display, the homeowners narrowed their choice towards composite doors from the Apeer 70 traditional collection. Given that security was a huge priority for the homeowners, George talked through all the benefits and high-security features to meet their requirements. George also reviewed the available glass designs and options, as the doors they liked featured some glass elements.
After careful consideration, the Wokingham homeowners chose the impressive, country-inspired Apeer Hanwell composite door finished in a dual colour with pebble grey (RAL7032) on the exterior and white on the interior to add a little rural charm to the entrance of their home. They chose the minster texture glass for the triple-glazed window for increased privacy. They decided on a traditional graphite bullring, letter plate, and an escutcheon finger pull/thumb turn for the door furniture.
Apeer was explicitly founded to provide homeowners owners with an energy-efficient composite door that benefits from a robust high-density polyurethane thermally insulated foam core with an expanded mesh inserted inside and sits alongside a full vertical steel bar, providing extraordinary strength that enhances home security and offers increased protection against intruders and burglaries. They are one of the most secure composite entrance doors on the UK market that exceeds all Police-approved security standards. The cylinder locks are police-approved and Secured by Design, and the large steel hinge bolts ensure maximum security.
Apeers manufacturing is known for being innovative. Each Apeer composite door is precisely tailored to your specifications and meticulously crafted with precision, exceptional craftsmanship, and the highest quality, giving you peace of mind that your front door is built to last.
Apeer 70 doors are proudly made in Britain. They offer exceptional durability and longevity, improved energy efficiency, and reduced noise pollution, achieve an A rating for energy efficiency and provide a low u-value of just 0.7 w/m²K. They are manufactured to the highest standards in quality with a weather-resistant finish for protection from adverse weather and to prevent fading and retain the colour. However, they are robust and durable with no splitting, warping, twisting or splitting as with traditional timber doors.
They have spent decades continually investing in revolutionary technology, research and product development, which has breathed new life into the front door industry for timber alternatives that emulate natural wood’s look, feel and even authentic texture.
Apeer doors can be designed with a realistic wood grain finish that emulates the authentic beauty of natural timber without regular maintenance. They are an affordable option to give any entrance an instant revamp and can bring charm and character into modern and period properties.
All the composite doors are available in an array of colours and finishes from the neutral hues of Irish Oak to the dramatically dark and impactful Anthracite grey; each composite door design is a realistic representation of the hand-crafted beauty of natural timber with unexpected richness and authentic textures that offer depth and dimension. They are also low maintenance. No need to repaint or varnish; simply wipe clean!
Quality, energy efficiency, security and sustainability are essential elements of their company ethos and remain to this day their core values.
The transformation from the outdated green front door to the new pebble grey composite front door is stunning. The pebble grey’s warm tones and soft hues provide a fresh contrast to the white door frame and the surrounding brickwork while maintaining a cohesively warm aesthetic that creates a welcoming entrance to the Wokingham home.
The Hanwell door adds an eye-catching curb appeal to the family home, guaranteeing high security and excellent thermal performance.
The side window facilitates natural light flow into the home, whilst the white finish on the inside complements the neutral interior decor and adds a touch of sophistication to the hallway.
The homeowners are delighted with their new grey composite front door, and they now benefit from a high-performance double rebated insulated entrance door that provides extra draught protection to keep the family home warmer and help reduce their energy bills.
