Rules for composite front doors in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, replacement external doors must meet 1.8 W/m²K. Replacing external doors does not need full plans or a building notice, but the work must still comply; enlarging an opening or other structural change needs building control approval.
Planning: Check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of doors, and always for listed buildings, conservation areas and flats.
How it works
The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.
- Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
- Glass build-up and door U-value on every quote
- Written handover pack at the end of the job
- Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
Questions from Bangor, County Down
Are composite doors secure?
Good ones are tested to PAS 24 and fitted with anti-snap cylinders. We specify both.
Is triple glazing worth it in a front door?
The glass is the weakest part of a composite door for heat loss, so triple glazing the panels helps most when the door has large glazed areas or side panels.
How long does it take to get triple glazed composite front doors fitted in Bangor, County Down?
After the survey, typical manufacture time is 4 to 6 weeks, and a door is usually fitted in a day.
Do I need permission for triple glazed composite front doors in Bangor, County Down?
In Northern Ireland, check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of a door, and always for listed buildings and flats. Check whether your street is in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction before changing the style.
