Trade composite doors on the Isle of Wight

Ordering composite doors for jobs on the Isle of Wight

Composite doors are ordered by style, colour, handing and frame size. Your quote lists each of those so the door that arrives is the one you specified.

For flats where the front door opens onto a common stair, the door may need to be fire-rated. Fire doors are a separate product and are not supplied as standard composite doors.

Delivery across the Isle of Wight

Because the Isle of Wight is outside our standard mainland routes, delivery is quoted separately for each order and confirmed before production starts.

Building regulations in England

Replacement external doors in England should meet a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K under Approved Document L. Glass in doors and side panels below 1500mm is a critical location under Approved Document K, so it must break safely (toughened or laminated to BS EN 12600), be robust or in small panes, or be permanently protected. Doors into new homes also need to meet Approved Document Q for security, which is usually shown with PAS 24. Replacing a door that is more than half glazed is notifiable building work, self-certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control.

Before anything goes into production you get a written order acknowledgement with sizes, finishes and handing for every item. Check it carefully, because made-to-measure items cannot be returned if the sizes were wrong.
