Choose from hundreds of secure front and back door configurations, featuring PAS 24 composite security, multi-point locks, and energy-efficient glazing.
Front and Back Doors From FAB
FAB offers an extensive range of front doors and external doors in composite, uPVC, aluminium, and timber materials. Each new entrance door is made to measure for a perfect fit, reducing draughts and improving insulation and energy efficiency.
Front doors are fitted with multi-point locking systems and anti-snap, anti-bump cylinder locks, with Secured by Design certification as a key safety benchmark, ensuring strong security alongside style and kerb appeal.
External Doors
Choosing new external doors starts with location and weather resistance. In Liverpool and across the UK, doors must handle high moisture, wind, and salt air without warping or rusting. For that reason, uPVC, steel, and solid wood are recommended materials for exterior doors, with composite doors, uPVC, and aluminium being popular choices for durability and low maintenance. Door colour, glazing style, and overall design should match personal taste while fitting the home’s architectural style.
Security matters as much as style. Quality external doors should use multi-point locking systems and strong locking mechanisms to help deter thieves. Many homeowners also look for upgrades like Ultion Diamond cylinder locks, which are designed to prevent picking, bumping, snapping, and drilling. For added reassurance, features commonly seen on Everest front doors include toughened safety glass, security hinges, and hook bolts, and British Security Standards are a key benchmark when comparing options.
Composite Doors
Composite doors Wirral are a durable and secure choice for front and back entrances and are highly recommended in Liverpool due to their durability and low maintenance. Built with a solid timber or foam core and a Glass Reinforced Plastic skin, they resist warping and moisture damage. SafeGuard composite doors meet PAS 24 standards and deliver strong insulation, security, and long-lasting performance.
uPVC Doors
uPVC doors Wirral are a cost-effective and low-maintenance solution for exterior doors. Resistant to corrosion and salt spray, they are suitable for UK coastal locations and provide strong frames, secure locks, and reliable thermal efficiency. Unlike timber, uPVC doors do not require varnishing or painting and generally only need occasional cleaning to maintain their finish. For homeowners balancing cost, durability, and performance, uPVC front doors remain a popular and practical choice.
Wooden Doors
Wooden and timber doors are ideal for traditional designs and heritage properties where maintaining character is important. Oak and solid timber can enhance the appearance of Victorian homes and create a classic entrance. However, timber requires regular maintenance, including painting or varnishing on all faces and edges before installation, to protect against moisture exposure. Ongoing care is essential to prevent swelling or warping in humid conditions and to prolong the lifespan of the exterior door.
Aluminium Doors
Aluminium doors are modern, lightweight, and exceptionally strong, making them ideal for contemporary properties and bifold doors on the Wirral. Naturally resistant to corrosion, they are suitable for exposed locations, with marine-grade finishes recommended for properties within three miles of the shoreline. Aluminium exterior doors provide excellent weather resistance and minimal upkeep, while a thermal break helps prevent heat loss and maintain strong insulation performance.

Front Door Designs and Glazing
Front doors are available in a vast range of materials, door colour options, and glazing styles to suit different styles and personal tastes. Choosing the right glazing is key to balancing natural light, privacy, and energy efficiency, especially during hot weather. A durable door that complements the period and architectural style of your house can improve kerb appeal and property value. For accurate sizing of your new door, measure between the frame legs and the sill and lintel rather than relying on the existing door size.

Frequently Asked Questions About Front and Back Doors
What is a front door and back door?
A front door is the main entrance to your home, designed for security, insulation, and kerb appeal. A back door provides secondary access, often leading to a garden or driveway, and must offer the same level of durability, glazing balance, and protection.
What is the average cost of installing a front door in the UK?
The average cost of a new front door installed in the UK typically ranges from £900 to £2,500, depending on materials, glazing, security features, and labour. Composite doors usually sit at the higher end due to enhanced insulation and security.
How much should I pay for a new front door installed in the UK?
A standard uPVC front door may cost between £900 and £1,400 installed, while composite front doors range from £1,200 to £2,500. Aluminium and double doors are often more expensive due to materials and structural work.
Are double doors more expensive?
Yes, double doors generally cost more because they require larger frames, additional hardware, reinforced hinges, and more complex installation.
Which door is better, uPVC or composite?
Composite doors are more secure and durable than uPVC. Built with a solid timber or foam core and Glass Reinforced Plastic skin, they resist warping and moisture. SafeGuard composite doors meet PAS 24 standards, offering reinforced security and excellent insulation. uPVC doors remain a cost-effective, low-maintenance alternative requiring only occasional cleaning.
What does a standard front door cost?
A basic uPVC door may start around £500 supply only, while composite options with enhanced security and glazing features cost more.
What security features should a front door have?
Front doors should include multi-point locking systems, anti-snap cylinder locks, and ideally Secured by Design certification. Ultion Diamond cylinder locks prevent picking, bumping, snapping, and drilling. Everest front doors feature toughened safety glass, security hinges, hook bolts, and meet British Security Standards for protection against burglars.
Are composite doors energy efficient?
Yes. All Everest front doors are made to measure for a perfect fit, reducing draughts and improving energy efficiency. Composite doors generally offer the best insulation, while aluminium doors require a thermal break to prevent heat loss.
What should I consider before installation?
Choose glazing carefully to balance light, privacy, and energy efficiency. External doors are available in a range of sizes to suit different openings. Fit a minimum of three good-quality hinges for stability. Do not arrange tradesmen until goods have arrived and been checked for damage, as courier delays can affect installation. Timber doors require regular painting or staining, while composite and uPVC doors need minimal upkeep.
