What Are uPVC Doors?

uPVC doors have frames made from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride, a rigid material that resists weather and UV exposure and does not need painting. Ours use a UV stable mix designed for Australia’s climate. A timber hinged door is often a thermal weak point, because gaps around poor seals let in light and cold draughts. Our compression-sealed uPVC doors are designed to avoid that.

Which uPVC Door Style Suits Your Home?

The best door depends on the size of the opening and how you want to use the space. Here is how our main styles compare.

  • Sliding doors: glide open to link indoor and outdoor areas, with a flush finish to internal flooring possible and flyscreens included as standard.
  • Lift and slide doors: suit large openings, with two or four panels at widths from 2.1m up to 11m, and a double seal for a tight fit.
  • Tilt and slide doors: the sash slides away or tilts inwards for passive ventilation, which suits tight spaces where you want a door and window in one position.
  • Stacking doors: panels stack to one side to create a wide opening between your home and your entertaining area.
  • Magnaline doors: a swing and slide system that works like a bifold door with a superior seal.
  • French doors: classic lines with large areas of glass that let natural light in even when closed.
  • Entry doors: compression-sealed hinged doors, including barn doors with a tilt and turn window built in, which suit laundries.

For the best noise sealing, hinged doors and lift and slide doors give the optimum seal. If you are comparing bifold doors in Melbourne, ask us how Magnaline doors differ.

Security, Comfort and Noise Reduction

Every uPVC door we make uses an advanced multi-point locking system, and most styles offer a key lock or turn snib cylinder. Most doors can also have security screens as an option, and we have flyscreen options for all of our doors. Compression seals help keep out cold and reduce outside noise, and all of our glass is argon filled as standard at no extra cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a uPVC door?

A uPVC door has a frame made from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride, a rigid material that resists weather and UV exposure and does not need painting. Ours combine that frame with compression seals and multi-point locking, so they seal tightly, help reduce outside noise and stay low maintenance for everyday use.

How much do uPVC doors cost?

Doors cost more than windows because of larger spans, heavier glass and more complex hardware. Our double glazing cost guide shows indicative installed prices from about $3,500 for a standard back door to $14,000 or more for multi-panel stacking doors. A free measure gives you a fixed price.

Can I fit a pet door to a uPVC door?

Yes. For sliding doors we can supply double glazed units with a hole cut out for a pet door. On lift and slide doors we can also build the pet door into our uPVC panelling. Ask your sales representative which option suits your door style and opening size.

Are uPVC doors secure?

Our uPVC doors use an advanced multi-point locking system, with a key lock or turn snib cylinder on most styles, so the door is held shut at several points rather than one. Most doors can also be fitted with optional security screens for extra protection, which you can discuss at your free measure.
