What a new front door can do for you

Immediate impact on the look of your home

Fresher than paint, a new door will make your home more appealing and more welcoming.

Exceptional home security is locked in

We only specify industry standard security features in the construction and materials of our doors.

Better thermal performance

Our energy-efficient front doors offer excellent A-rated performance, with selected Meridian designs achieving an exceptionally low U-value of just 0.78 W/m²K.

Low maintenance

Unlike wooden doors, aluminium, uPVC and composite doors are largely maintenance free.

10-year product guarantee

All new doors carry a standard guarantee for 10 years on fit, function and finish.

Environmental protection

In addition to carbon offset EcoMax glass, our doors contain a high percentage of recycled materials.

Customise your entrance door

No home is the same, and nor should be any door. The range of materials and finishes, fittings and furniture for front doors is so wide that it’s easy to create the look you want for your home.

From the contemporary black or grey front door with chrome handlebar or more traditional oak front doors for an older or heritage property, there are many options available.

Dual colour doors—different exterior and interior colours—make it possible to match interior paint schemes without further effort.

New Suffolk uPVC front doors that will modernise your South East home

uPVC is a popular door material because it combines security, energy efficiency and low maintenance with excellent design flexibility.

Many people choose uPVC doors because they are largely maintenance-free, requiring only an occasional wipe with a cloth. A wide range of glazing options offers scope for personalisation and durable coatings prevent colours fading over time.

We offer a range of uPVC door styles, suiting both modern and traditional properties. Our Suffolk uPVC front doors replicate period features from the 1700s to the 1900s. In five historical era styles they provide a convincing alternative to timber doors.

A big collection of composite front door designs

With more than 30 design options, our composite front doors suit any kind of home perfectly. Choose from more than 250 colour combinations inside and out from modern greys to stylish vibrant tones. We also offer decorative glazing and a range of door furniture to explore your personal style.

All our composite doors are hand made, replicating the appearance of timber, but unlike wooden doors require no maintenance beyond cleaning. Thanks to their dense, insulating construction, they help retain warmth and improve thermal performance.

Our Balmoral composite doors feature a premium 48mm cross-laminated solid timber core, while our Meridian range uses an even more advanced 65mm reinforced monocoque composite construction, both of which are stronger than the average composite door. They come fitted with an ABS security cylinder and the very latest automatic multi-point locking system featuring a four self-locking deadbolt latch.

Aluminium looks for half the price

In recent years, aluminium doors have become increasingly popular, offering a bold, contemporary aesthetic and creating a striking focal point at the entrance of a property. Renowned for their exceptional strength and durability, aluminium doors deliver impressive visual appeal alongside robust performance. However, this premium option is reflected in the price, with average installations often in the region of £6,000.

For homeowners drawn to this modern styling, our Meridian range presents an attractive alternative. Designed to achieve the same sleek, contemporary look, it features elegant stainless steel inlay stripes and stylish bar handles. The key distinction lies in its outstanding value, offering the appearance and impact of aluminium at approximately half the cost.

Secure your home with a new front door

As the main point of entry, your front door is often the most vulnerable to a break-in attempt. To prevent unwanted access our replacement front doors have high security locking features as standard. Multi-point locking systems, anti-snap lock cylinders and mortice locks, which alongside their robust door frames, provide home security you can rely on.

With more than 50 years in the industry, we know that some homeowners want greater levels of security, so we also offer night latches and security chains. No matter which new front door style or material you opt for, with SEH BAC, you can be sure that it has been rigorously tested to meet strict security standards.

Replacement front doors that will reduce your carbon footprint

All our doors are chosen for their superior design and manufacturing quality and a key part of that is thermal efficiency. Pioneering frames incorporate features that stop warmth escaping and keep the cold air out. Our replacement front doors are designed to minimise heat loss through insulating frames, high-performance glazing and precision installation.

Performance varies by range, with our Meridian composite doors achieving U-values as low as 0.78 W/m²K. Both triple-glazed and double-glazed door panels can also incorporate argon gas between the panes to further reduce heat transfer.

You’ll notice that your home is a much more comfortable temperature once your replacement front door has been installed. Our expert installation team ensures that accuracy in fitting maximises thermal efficiency of your new door.

What’s the best kind of front door?

The right choice depends on you and your property—it’s a balance between style, performance and security.

For traditional styling and a substantial solid timber-core construction, our Balmoral composite range is a strong choice. For maximum thermal performance and contemporary styling, Meridian offers U-values as low as 0.78 W/m²K. For period homes, our Suffolk uPVC range recreates Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian detailing with modern security and insulation.

Whichever style you choose, your new front door will be professionally surveyed and installed by SEH BAC, with our experienced fitting teams ensuring it performs as intended. Our doors are also backed by comprehensive guarantees for added peace of mind.

What’s the most popular front door colour?

The most popular colour for front doors varies by location, property type, and personal preference. Some of the most popular front door colours in recent years include:

    1. Black—timeless classic that offers a sophisticated look to your home's exterior.
    2. White: a popular choice for front doors, as its clean and fresh look works well with many different home types.
    3. Blue: stands out while still remaining relatively conservative. Pale blue shades lend a lighter, coastal feel; deeper blues look more traditional.
    4. Red: makes a bold statement and adds a pop of colour to your home's exterior. It's a popular choice for traditional or historic homes.
    5. Green: works well with a variety of home styles, from traditional to modern. Its natural, earthy look is organic.

FAQs

How much will a new front door cost?

SEH BAC replacement front doors typically range from around £1,800 to £6,088, depending on the door range, size, glazing, colour, hardware and specification you choose. Balmoral composite front doors typically range from £1,800–£3,900, while Meridian doors range from £2,450–£4,700. Every door is made to measure, so we provide an individual quotation for your home.

How do I know if I need a new door?

There are always obvious signs like poor fit, rot in wood, loose fittings, and inconsistent lock operation, but sometimes it’s just time for a change. A new door can have a big impact on the outward appearance of your home. See our blog for more on this.

Is a composite or uPVC front door better?

Both can make excellent replacement front doors. Composite doors generally offer greater strength, security and a more substantial feel, while uPVC doors can provide excellent thermal performance, low maintenance and traditional styling. The best option depends on your property, preferred appearance, budget and performance requirements.

All our doors are designed for visual appeal as well as security, thermal efficiency, and durability. Complete with industry-leading and highly accredited hardware, any of our award-winning replacement front doors could transform your home. Read more.

Where in England can you supply and install doors?

We supply and install replacement doors across the South East of England, including:

  • Doors Essex
  • Doors Harrow
  • Doors Hertfordshire
  • Doors Cambridgeshire
  • Doors Buckinghamshire
  • Doors Suffolk
  • What is the most energy-efficient type of front door?

    Energy efficiency depends on the complete door specification rather than material alone. Our Meridian composite entrance doors can achieve U-values as low as 0.78 W/m²K depending on specification, making them an excellent choice where thermal performance is a priority.

    Are composite front doors secure?

    Yes. Composite front doors are designed to provide a high level of security, combining a strong, robust door construction with multipoint locking systems and modern security hardware.

    Selected SEH BAC composite doors can also be fitted with our Smart Lock and Alarm services in partnership with Kubu. Compatible Kubu smart sensors can monitor whether your door is locked and provide status information and alerts through the Kubu app, helping you check your door security even when you are away from home.

    For additional protection, a compatible SEH BAC alarm system can connect door and window sensors to a smart hub and siren, creating an integrated security system around the home. Available security features and specifications vary by door range, so our team can explain the locking, smart monitoring and alarm options available for your chosen door.

    Can I change the colour of my front door?

    Yes. Our front doors are available in a wide choice of colours and finishes, with different options depending on the range selected. Many designs can also have different colours internally and externally, allowing you to coordinate the exterior with your property and the inside with your décor.

    Can I have glass in my new front door?

    Yes. We offer a wide range of decorative and practical glazing options for front doors, including different glass designs, levels of privacy and configurations. The options available depend on the door style and range you choose.

    Do I need planning permission to replace my front door?

    In most cases, replacing a front door does not require planning permission. Restrictions can apply to listed buildings, properties in conservation areas or where specific planning conditions are in place. If you are unsure, it is worth checking with your local planning authority before making significant changes to the appearance of the property or speak to our dedicated planning team, who can guide you through the process.

    How long should a new front door last?

    A high-quality, professionally installed front door should provide many years of service. Its lifespan will depend on the material, exposure to weather, usage and maintenance. SEH BAC front doors are designed to provide long-term performance and are supported by our 10-Year product and installation guarantee.

    What type of front door is best for a period property?

    For period homes, a traditionally styled door that complements the original character of the property is usually the best choice. Our Suffolk uPVC and Balmoral composite ranges include designs suited to traditional and period properties, while still providing the benefits of modern security, insulation and low maintenance.

    What type of front door is best for a modern home?

    For contemporary properties, clean lines, larger glazed areas and modern colours such as anthracite grey, black or muted tones are popular choices. Our Meridian range is particularly well suited to modern homes and offers strong thermal performance alongside contemporary styling.

    How long does it take to install a new front door?

    Most replacement front door installations can be completed within a day. The exact time will depend on the condition of the existing opening and whether any additional work is required. Your door will be professionally surveyed beforehand so we can identify any requirements before installation.

    What is included in the price of a new front door?

    Our quoted price includes your made-to-measure front door, the glazing, colour and hardware options selected, professional installation and associated finishing work. Your new door will also be covered by the applicable SEH BAC product and installation guarantees, giving you added peace of mind. Your quotation will clearly detail everything included before you place your order.
