​Do NH Trade Frames use Double rebate doors?
Yes, NH Trade Frames mainly supply and install composite doors which are double rebated and measure 70mm thick, giving homeowners extra security and weatherproofing. The thickness and double seal construction make them a top choice for those looking for front and back doors that can handle severe weather and improve home insulation.
What is a Double Rebated Door?
Simply put, a double rebated door has two seals: one on the outside of the door and another on the inside. These two seals work together to provide enhanced protection against harsh weather conditions. While a single rebate door only has one seal, the double rebate offers twice the defence against wind, rain, and draughts. If water or wind manages to pass the outer seal, it still has to penetrate the inner seal, making these doors highly resistant to even extreme weather conditions.
High or Low Threshold- Which do you need?
There are many types and styles of thresholds available, although there are some important factors that you may need to consider when choosing your threshold. Listed below are some of the factors you may need to consider when choosing your threshold.
-
Do you or anyone else need wheelchair access to your home?
-
Do you have young children, or do you need access for prams or buggies?
-
Do you have anyone in your home with limited physical abilities or disability?
-
Is it a new build the exterior door is for? (all new builds require wheelchair access to comply with building regulations)
Whether you are just renovating your existing home, or it’s a new home, it’s always worth considering your options. A low threshold can make life so much easier if you are in and out with a pram or you or a member of your family struggle with steps in general. The threshold can sometimes have to withstand a great deal of wear and tear due to its location. The threshold you choose will also be down to your own personal preferences, however it’s recommended to make sure you go for a good quality threshold. A UPVC threshold whether it’s a low or standard height tends to be slightly better in terms of energy efficiency; however, the difference is minimal. When choosing your threshold there is also the overall appearance of the door that might sway you when choosing, as the aluminum will not be color coded as the UPVC option you can have matched the color of the rest of the door.

What are the Benefits of a Composite Door over Standard Upvc?
Composite doors come with high strength from within. An expanded mesh reinforcing is inserted into the super-strong, high density polyurethane core alongside an extremely strong vertical steel bar that together, far exceeds all Police-approved security standards. These doors are hung is a steel reinforced Frame and really are second to no other door for security.
Along with our 70mm super-strong, high insulating polyurethane core, glass elements are triple glazed for extra insulation. We can even gas-fill them for improved thermal performance.
Installing an Approved Composite door and you’ll have the weight of our entire design team and security specialists protecting you and your home from intruders. Our doors comfortably exceed all industry standard impact and cut-through tests
UPVC Panel Doors are still a great option if you are sticking to a budget. They still offer a great level of security with a double reinforced panel installed and a great five point locking system.
