New Door

[TOWIE]

I am in the market for a new front door. Mr. Towie wants one of those white PVC things - I on the other hand want a traditional wooden one, varnished.

I do like a bit of colour, so if we did go with a PVC one, I would like a coloured one.

What colour/material is your front door ? (:o)

Hello Den, Oh! how much I agree with you. Our last house had a solid mahogany door half glazed with 15 panes of glass including 3 bottle panes, lovely door.
Here we've got one of those plastic ones YUK!!
(Hope all is well

wood painted with fired earth type painted red (our house is 300years old) ,

cream painted wood shaker/fake cottage style with a diamond shape glass window. The trouble with white UPVC is it doesn't stay looking sparkly for long.

White painted door - it's wooden inside a steel outer coating I think. It has a stained glass/opaque patterned glass panel which has red squares of glass in it.........................and don't get me started about coloured painted doors!

I seem to remember something about garage doors annie ?

[tenrec]

I have same as Tony but with half glass to let plenty of light in.

Don't forget you can paint a uPVC door any colour you like Towie.
Standard timber doors are fine if you fit a multipoint locking system that they use on uPVC doors. Otherwise, they warp and let in draughts :o(

tony - yes it was my neighbour who painted her door, the side bit, all the surround and her garage door a horrible shade of red one day....in an estate of white doors - looks mental.

[tonyav]
