Designer Doors: Premium 70mm Aluminium Construction
UNIK Designer Doors represent the ultimate in British-manufactured aluminium entrance door technology, featuring substantial 70mm thick construction that significantly exceeds standard composite door specifications. This enhanced thickness accommodates advanced polyamide thermal break technology, creating sophisticated barriers between internal and external aluminium surfaces that prevent cold transfer and eliminate condensation issues. The result is exceptional thermal performance achieving U-values from 0.9-1.1 W/m²K – significantly superior to standard composite doors (typically 1.8+ W/m²K) and even outperforming UNIK's own Signature range, making Designer doors the optimal choice for energy-conscious homeowners across Cambridge, Ipswich, Luton, Milton Keynes, Greater London, Reading, Oxford, Swindon, Guildford, Chelmsford, Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, Bournemouth, Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Plymouth, Cardiff, and Swansea.
Manufactured entirely at Smart Architectural Aluminium's 60,000m² facility in Somerset, each Designer door benefits from vertical integration spanning aluminium extrusion through powder coating application and final assembly. This British manufacturing ensures rigorous quality control at every stage, typically 4-6 week lead times for bespoke specifications, and direct manufacturer support throughout the door's 40+ year lifespan including guaranteed parts availability for 25+ years. For architects, developers, and specifiers working on projects across East England (Cambridge, Ipswich, Luton, Milton Keynes), Greater London, Thames Valley & Oxford (Reading, Oxford, Swindon, Guildford, Chelmsford), South Coast (Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, Bournemouth), or South West (Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Plymouth, Cardiff, Swansea), this manufacturing excellence delivers regulatory compliance, sustainable practices, and support for British jobs and engineering expertise.
Exceptional Thermal Performance for Energy Efficiency
Designer doors are specifically engineered to exceed UK Building Regulations thermal requirements, delivering U-values from 0.9-1.1 W/m²K that significantly outperform Document L standards. This exceptional insulation results from the sophisticated 70mm construction incorporating multiple polyamide thermal breaks, triple weather seals, and thermally enhanced glazing units. For homeowners in colder regions across Cambridge, Luton, Milton Keynes, or exposed coastal locations in Brighton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth, or Plymouth, this superior thermal performance translates to measurably reduced heating costs – upgrading from a standard timber door (U-value circa 2.0 W/m²K) to a Designer door saves approximately 200+ kWh annually for an average UK home, worth £35-45 per year at current energy prices.
The advanced thermal break system uses precision-engineered polyamide strips creating continuous insulation barriers throughout the door frame and sash, preventing thermal bridging that compromises standard door designs. Triple weather seals provide outstanding protection against wind-driven rain and draughts, particularly valuable for properties in exposed locations across Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, Bournemouth on the South Coast, or Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Plymouth, Cardiff, Swansea across the South West. Independent testing confirms weather performance exceeding 600 Pa for water tightness and 1200 Pa for wind resistance, ensuring homes stay warm, dry, and comfortable regardless of British weather extremes. For Passivhaus projects, eco-builds, or energy-conscious renovations across Cambridge, Oxford, Reading, Guildford, or throughout East England, Thames Valley, South Coast, and South West regions, Designer doors deliver thermal performance that supports ambitious energy efficiency targets whilst maintaining aesthetic excellence.
PAS24:2022 Security Certification as Standard
Every UNIK Designer Door achieves PAS24:2022 certification, the British Standard for enhanced security performance independently tested by BSI assessors. This rigorous accreditation ensures doors resist forced entry attempts for minimum three minutes, exceeding Secured by Design requirements essential for homeowners across Greater London, Cambridge, Ipswich, Luton, Milton Keynes, Reading, Oxford, Swindon, Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, and other urban areas. Designer doors feature 3-star Kitemarked Euro cylinders as standard – the highest security rating available in the UK market – incorporating anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-drill, and anti-bump technology. These cylinders are backed by UNIK's exclusive £4,000 security guarantee: if your home is burgled through one of our cylinders and your insurance doesn't cover it, we'll pay up to £4,000 for stolen goods.
Comprehensive security extends beyond cylinders to robust multi-point locking systems with high-security hooks and deadbolts, heavy-duty stainless steel hinges tested to 80kg resistance, and internally glazed units that cannot be removed from outside. Designer doors offer choice between convenient multi-point slam locks that secure automatically when doors close – ideal for families with children across homes in Guildford, Chelmsford, Brighton, Bristol, Bath, Exeter – or traditional 10-point key-operated systems preferred for properties requiring maximum security across London, Cambridge, Oxford, Southampton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth. For heritage properties in conservation areas across Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, Brighton, Bristol, and historic districts throughout East England, Thames Valley, South Coast, and South West regions, heritage slam lock options position cylinders two-thirds up the door rather than centrally, creating period-appropriate aesthetics whilst maintaining PAS24 security performance.

As proud members of the Made in Britain network, every door benefits from domestic manufacturing advantages including shorter lead times (typically 4-6 weeks versus 8-12+ weeks for imported alternatives), British engineering expertise, rigorous quality control, sustainable production practices, and direct manufacturer support throughout the door's lifetime.
British manufacturing guarantees compliance with all UK regulations including Part M accessibility requirements, Part Q security standards (PAS24:2022), and Document L thermal performance mandates (U-values 0.9-1.1 W/m²K). For architects, developers, and specifiers working on projects across Cambridge science parks, Oxford university colleges, London residential developments, Reading commercial schemes, Bristol regeneration projects, Southampton waterfront developments, Brighton seafront properties, or Bath conservation areas, this regulatory compliance is assured without complications of EU CE marking translations or post-Brexit import documentation challenges.

Qualicoat 25-Year Powder Coating Guarantee
Every Designer door receives Qualicoat-approved marine-grade powder coating, the highest quality finish available in the UK aluminium door market. The sophisticated multi-stage process begins with aluminium profiles cleaned and etched, then chromate-conversion treated for optimal paint adhesion, before electrostatically applied powder coating is precision-cured at controlled temperatures. This creates lustrous, UV-resistant finishes available in over 200 RAL colours including popular Anthracite Grey (RAL 7016), Jet Black (RAL 9005), Signal White (RAL 9003), Traffic Grey (RAL 7042), plus extensive palette spanning Heritage Green, Oxford Blue, Bristol Red, Cambridge Cream, and full RAL spectrum.
The Qualicoat certification guarantees finish performance for 25 years – the longest warranty available in the UK door market where most competitors offer just 10 years. Unlike GRP composite doors that fade within 5-7 years requiring repainting, or PVC doors that can never truly match frame colours, Designer aluminium doors and frames achieve perfect colour coordination guaranteed not to fade, chalk, or peel for 25 years. Particularly valuable for properties in high UV exposure areas including south-facing homes across Brighton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth, Southampton, Plymouth, Exeter throughout South Coast and South West, or exposed locations across Cambridge, Ipswich, Milton Keynes, Reading, Oxford, Swindon, Guildford, Chelmsford, Bristol, Bath, Cardiff, Swansea throughout East England, Thames Valley, Greater London, and all delivery zones.
