Whether you're looking to replace your old door or improve your home's existing exterior decor, the range of external glazed doors at Express Doors Direct will leave you spoiled for choice. We stock a variety of panel options, door colours, materials and finishes. You're guaranteed to find something to suit your tastes and style.
A glazed door simply refers to exterior doors where one or more of the panels is made from glass. These can be multiple small panels set in a particular decorative pattern, or one large panel so you can see who is at your front door before opening it. Couple a glazed external door with sidelights for maximum light flow.
This is a question we get asked a lot, and with good reason. Your front door is supposed to make you feel safe and secure, and many worry that doors with glass panels are easy to smash.
The great news is that external glazed doors are made from toughened glass, and are much more difficult to break than you may think.
If you're worried about the security of a glazed external door, we recommend choosing something with triple glazing for additional peace of mind.
In addition to selecting the style of glass for your external door, you'll need to choose a type of glazing. The options include single glazed, double glazed and triple glazed. The 'more glazed' a door, the more outside noise is reduced. Opting for any type of glazing will increase your home's energy efficiency, potentially lowering your energy bills, while increasing your kerb appeal. It's a win-win situation.
There are plenty of options when it comes to external glazed door styles and there will never be a one-size-fits-all solution. Everybody's tastes differ, and one option may suit one home and not another.
Here's a rundown of the glazed options, to help you choose the best style for your home:
Opting for clear glass on your new external doors can increase natural light flow and create a focal point in your front and back garden. If you've got a garden you're proud of, then choosing something like our Tricoya external door will help you get the most out of it.
You can also use clear glass to create a modern-looking aesthetic by opting for our Turin Oak M&t, for example.
Having frosted glass panels is great for maintaining your privacy. Whilst preventing onlookers from peering into your property, they still allow an abundance of natural light to flow into your home, creating a warm glow for your interior.
We're particularly fond of this Harrow Hardwood M&t external door, it exudes style and elegance.
If you're a fan of traditional decor, then decorative glass will suit you to a tee. Our Malton Green door oozes the traditional aesthetic, as does our Double Glazed Chester Hardwood option.
If modern styles are more to your tastes, there's still plenty to be found. Our Suffolk Charcoal makes great use of shading as part of its decoration.
In addition to deciding which type of glass you'd prefer for your glazed doors, you also get to choose the type of material your door will be made of. Each material has its own properties that must be considered when choosing your new door, including durability and even colour:
An oak external glazed door is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to bring added security to your home. Oak doors are notoriously sturdy, and our glazed oak doors are no different. The light, natural look pairs greatly with any exterior decor but particularly those with a more natural aesthetic.
Timber glazed doors are a cheaper alternative to oak but don't compromise on durability. This material is strong and environmentally friendly, and with the right maintenance can last just as long as regular composite doors!
External hardwood doors are ideal for durability and aesthetics. This type of glazed door can provide your entryways with increased security without compromising on style. By composing the internal layers of the door with strong and sturdy woods, the external layer can be decorated with other wood to provide a more appealing finish.
GRP stands for ‘glass reinforced plastic’ and is also commonly referred to as ‘fibreglass.’ The GRP forms a type of outer skin making them strong and durable. An additional benefit is that GRP doors require very little maintenance and are available in a range of colours.
If you’re a fan of the natural look then a pine glazed door is a fantastic choice. If you refrain from painting them, you’ll see all of the natural knots and grains. You can also opt for clear pine. They are lightweight but fantastic insulators.
Finally, our range of Tricoya external doors are an ideal choice for glazed doors. With cutting-edge technology and techniques, our Tricoya glazed doors are thoroughly water-resistant and durable.
The final decision you'll have to make when shopping for a new glazed door is the type of finish:
Our fully finished external glazed doors are ready to be installed the moment they're delivered. This relieves you of the responsibility of treating, staining or painting. All our pre-finished doors are decorated at a factory-level standard, leaving you with a door that is ready to be hung.
Our primed external doors are ready to paint however you like before being hung. It’s an ideal option for colour matching or making a statement. Painting front doors can be satisfying and striking, adding your personal touch to make the entrance to your house absolutely fabulous!
