Front Doors serve as the primary entrance to our homes, which is why they are a burglar’s preferred point of entry and why replacing them to Security Front Doors is recommended as the first priority. However, intruders will not hesitate to target windows as well — even despite the high risk of injury from a broken glass which could leave behind DNA evidence and create a loud sound. Securing your windows is therefore the essential next step in restricting access and securing your house or flat, but about that read more in our high security windows section. Having both Front Security Doors and windows installed improves overall security dramatically as the physical security barrier is the most important one – they can’t steal from or enter if it’s locked. Our RC1 model offers a comprehensive range of security features, as detailed below.
Manufactured from electro-galvanised steel—one of the most robust materials available – our security front door protect you, your loved ones, and your hard-earned life savings from intruders. Front door security features a precision – bent and welded steel frame and steel reinforced leaf profiles, both of which are cladded in engineered timber panels to match the aesthetic of a traditional wooden door. We have successfully replicated Victorian doors for conservation areas and listed buildings throughout the UK, as well as in Granada, Barcelona, Paris, Hamburg, Vilnius, and other European cities.
Our doors are manufactured using superior – quality RUUKKI steel and the latest engineered timber – Medite Tricoya Extreme, which offers an impressive 60 – year lifespan.
With the standard door weighing upwards of 100 kg – in addition to the steel frame – the sheer quality of the engineering is clear. However, you needn’t worry about the weight, our adjustable, heavy-duty – welded hinges with special bearings ensure that the door remains as effortless to operate as a traditional timber one.
Security front entrance doors are nothing to be daunted by – they are quite simply an essential requirement for safeguarding your home and heritage.
Fire Rated – Our doors provide fire resistance for up to 30 minutes (FD30), available as an optional upgrade.
Thermal Insulation – Our doors offer outstanding thermal performance, achieving a U-value of 1.5 W/m²K.
Built to Last – Our doors have been rigorously tested for durability, completing 200,000 opening and closing cycles while remaining fully operational and structurally sound.
10-Year Warranty – Every door is supplied with a standard 10-year guarantee covering the steel construction; however, they are engineered to last for several decades to come.
Low Maintenance – Our doors require virtually no upkeep. Designed for durability, Security doors London are exceptionally easy to maintain; a simple wipe down with a damp cloth is all that is required to keep them looking their best.
Multi-point Locking System – Our doors feature a comprehensive security suite, including a multi-point locking system and a Grade 6 FIAM 678 lock, encased in a specialised manganese anti-drill plate. The mechanism secures the door with one bolt going upwards, one into the threshold, and four heavy-duty bolts into the main locking side. Furthermore, four fixed bolts protect the hinge side, ensuring the door remains impenetrable even in the unlikely event that an intruder attempts to bypass the heavy-duty hinges. The escutcheon is further reinforced against drilling by a unique spinning cylinder protector.
Unforgeable Keys – Our security doors London (RC1) feature a Grade 6 security lock and a Yale-type cylinder. These keys are patented and restricted, meaning they cannot be replicated without a unique security code, while the cylinder is specifically designed to resist standard lock-picking tools.
Robust Construction – Featuring an 80mm steel profile and a 75mm door leaf thickness, these units can easily withstand a significant impact from a bicycle or motorcycle. The stainless steel profile incorporates six precision bends, making it substantially stronger than a standard box section frame. This design also allows for a superior infill of rock wool, silicone, and other hermetic materials for maximum insulation.
Sound proof – Steel security doors clad in timber panels and infilled with rock wool achieve exceptional acoustic insulation levels. The RC1 model has been tested to 43 dB; in practical terms, this means conversation behind the door is virtually inaudible. This is invaluable for high-traffic or noisy areas where acoustic performance and noise reduction are a priority.
Bespoke Configurations – Our high-security doors are engineered for total versatility, allowing for seamless integration with side panels, double-leaf configurations, fanlights, or arched openings. Furthermore, we specialise in creating exact REPLICA high-security doors, specifically tailored for Grade I and Grade II listed buildings or protected conservation areas.
Certified to the Highest British and European Standards – In addition to independent RC1 certification, our doors have successfully undergone five further performance tests, including: Acoustics, Thermal Insulation, Wind Resistance, Hinge Cycle Testing, and Fire Resistance.
Professionally Installed by our skilled engineers – We believe that precision installation is just as vital as the craftsmanship and quality of the door itself. This is why we rely exclusively on our in-house team of engineers, who have successfully commissioned hundreds of installations across the UK.
Once expertly fitted, these doors provide optimum security and peace of mind. Furthermore, should an attempted break-in occur, door panels can easily be replaced, ensuring your property remains secure without the need for a total door replacement.
