uPVC compared to wood
How they differ: Purpose-built doors vs natural material.
Description: It can’t be denied that wooden doors have existed for a long time within British homes, but how do they compare to uPVC? While wood is a natural material, uPVC is manufactured from resin and formed into a durable plastic. The purpose of uPVC has been to create an affordable and versatile material, designed to withstand the rigours of everyday use. When it comes to doors, uPVC offers superior weather resistance by default, having a rain-resistant and UV-stable surface, whereas wooden doors require varnishing to provide this same protection. Additionally, uPVC doors are generally cheaper and require less maintenance than external hardwood doors.
Our uPVC woodgrain finishes
What we offer: Irish Oak, Golden Oak and Rosewood.
Description: Of our woodgrain finishes, Irish Oak is the lightest. Styles like the Irish Oak Plain Panel uPVC Lead Back Door and Irish Oak Half Glass Plastic Clear/Pattern uPVC Door are good for creating a rustic charm with a relaxed pale-brown tone. Our Half Flat Panel Golden Oak uPVC Back Doors provide a more traditional look, with a mid-ochre tone. Darker still are our Half Flat Panel Rosewood uPVC Back Doors, perfect for formal settings with a rich, dark brown.
Woodgrain uPVC doors in the home
What they match: Similar-coloured wood, or uPVC surrounds and windows in the same finishes.
Description: Woodgrain uPVC doors can match surrounds of similar colours, whether they’re wooden or uPVC. Irish Oak, Golden Oak and Rosewood are common foils available for uPVC profiles, and as such woodgrain uPVC doors can also be matched to uPVC windows. While woodgrain uPVC doors are generally suited to traditional and rural homes, they can also be applied to more contemporary settings to combine the timeless look of wood with a modern touch.
In conclusion, our woodgrain uPVC Back Doors are a great replacement to wooden doors, with a varied selection of tones, superior performance against the elements, lower maintenance requirements and a generally lower cost.
