uPVC doors have gained immense popularity in home design. When replacing front or rear doors, uPVC doors are a popular choice due to their modern benefits, which outweigh more dated doors like timber. At SRJ, our door range offers homeowners a multitude of benefits and versatility. In this article, we will delve into the history of uPVC doors and explore the reasons behind their surge in popularity.
The History and Advantages of uPVC Doors
uPVC, or unplasticised polyvinyl chloride, was first introduced in 1935 and has since become a widely used material in the fenestration industry. In the 1980s, it emerged as a superior alternative to timber doors due to its durability, low maintenance requirements, and resistance to rot and warping. uPVC doors provide homeowners with a long lasting and cost effective solution that demands minimal upkeep.
Versatility in Home Design
Since 2022, one of the primary reasons for the growing popularity of uPVC doors in home design is their adaptability to various architectural styles with the introduction of our new ranges. Whether you reside in a modern, contemporary, or traditional home, uPVC doors can be customised to suit your aesthetic preferences.
They are available in a wide range of colours, finishes, and designs, enabling you to create a harmonious look for your home. If you are also looking for operational stability in your need doors, we would recommend our panelled uPVC door. They are amongst the best in their price range, especially when compared to some composite doors.
Enhanced Security and Weather Resistance
Apart from their aesthetic appeal, our uPVC doors offer excellent security features. Reinforced and equipped with a security PAS24 rated security and performance test multi-locking system, these doors provide homeowners with peace of mind, knowing that their homes are well-protected. Our uPVC doors are also weatherproof with a PAS23 rated wind & water tightness test and are capable of withstanding harsh elements such as rain and wind, ensuring their longevity.
Low Maintenance and Sustainability
The low maintenance nature of uPVC doors contributes to their popularity. Unlike timber doors that require regular sanding, painting, and varnishing uPVC doors only need cleaning with a mild detergent and water to maintain their appearance.
This makes them a convenient choice for busy homeowners who wish to spend less time on maintenance and more time enjoying their homes. Furthermore, uPVC is a sustainable material that can be recycled multiple times without deteriorating in quality, making it a better choice for home improvements.
