Every Designer door has a unique textured, powder coated finish that gives a stunning, premium finish. Unlike other materials, the UV-resistant surface won’t fade or crack over time, and is durable and hard-wearing against scratches and scuffs. Every aspect of the Designer door is engineered with busy households in mind.
We are so confident in the durability and performance of our door finish, that we offer a 25 year guarantee on the finish as standard.
Our ultra-stylish lever handles sit on an oval rose backplate, more reminiscent of a modern internal door than the ugly lever handles found on most PVC or composite doors. This gives the door an urban, contemporary feel.
For a contemporary look, we offer four sizes of designer bar handles. These handles are solid stainless steel, offering a robust way to operate the door. Bar handles really add wow factor to the right door design.

Yes - all of our Designer doors come pre-hung in a 70mm aluminium outer frame. If you’ve ordered the same colour door and frame, this is a perfect colour and finish match which is not possible with composite doors.
Exact U values vary depending on design, but the majority of Smart Designer doors fall between 1.3-1.5 U value. Some traditional designs may have a higher U value, please speak to our sales team if you have a specific requirement.
Our doors are no different to fit to any other door hung in an outer frame, which means they require skill and care. Many customers will source their own installer, and some even install themselves if they have experience or are competent DIY’ers.
We provide installation guides and 4 air bags to assist with installation. As aluminium is a robust material, if properly installed there should be no operational issues with the product in years to come, which is perhaps not the case with timber, composite or uPVC.
If you’re not able to install yourself, or perhaps just don’t want the hassle and would prefer a robust 5 year installation guarantee, then our survey and installation service is the perfect option. In this case we take care of everything - we even send one of our trained surveyors to come and measure the door for you.
The main reason many double glazing installers are now favouring aluminium over composite doors is that the product is almost impervious to seasonal movement - otherwise known as bowing. Whilst composite doors are a great product, they are notorious for seasonal movement during hot and cold weather, which can often lead to operation issues such as door dropping and catching. Our doors simply do not have this issue, which is why we offer an impressive ‘no bow guarantee’.
Some other notable benefits of aluminium doors over composite are:
Finish depends on the colour range you choose - we recommend customers go for a textured finish. Many companies offer this as a premium upgrade, but we offer this at no extra cost. The textured finish has a more premium, high end look, is more resistant to scratches and is very UV resistant. The textured finish is available on bespoke RAL colours, Creations range, Sensations range and selected colours from the Naturals range.
No, all doors are bespoke and made to measure. This ensures the doors meet your exact requirements, as all openings are slightly different.
Yes - we have several doors on display at our head office in Stockton on Tees. We can also arrange appointments at the Smart showroom which is near Bristol.
Showroom visits are by appointment only, so please contact us to arrange.
Both door ranges are stunning, so here are a few guidelines to help you choose:
Yes - our aluminium composite doors are coated with marine grade paint as standard, which makes them suitable for coastal properties. Unlike many other suppliers, we do not charge extra for this.
No way - Our doors are designed to be maintenance free save for cleaning and a yearly drop of oil on the moving parts. We also give an impressive 25 year paint guarantee on the finish of your door.
All of our doors come with 3 keys as standard, but more can be provided upon request.
The Aluminium Composite Door is a brand new product that is the evolution of composite doors. The door is guaranteed to never bow or warp, comes in unlimited colour choices and has a premium, textured paint finish that is guaranteed to last for over 25 years.
