Composite and steel doors in County Durham
Steel doors suit rear lanes and service yards, and we can price several doors on one visit to your County Durham premises.
Businesses across the North East take deliveries in different ways, so we size your County Durham rear door around roll cages, pallets or whatever you handle. A flat above a County Durham shop may need a fire-rated door on the shared route, so we check that before suggesting a standard composite door.

Common questions
Do you cover all of County Durham?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across County Durham, including Bishop Auckland, Chester-le-Street, Consett, Darlington.
What colours do steel and composite doors come in?
Steel doors are usually powder coated, and most RAL colours are available. Composite door skins come in a narrower range set by the maker, often with a wood-grain texture. Dark colours absorb more heat on sunny elevations, so check the maker's guidance.
Is a composite door suitable for a flat above a shop?
Yes, as long as the fire requirements are met. A door from a shared stair or from the shop into a flat may need to be a fire door, so a standard composite door is not always right. Fire-rated composite doorsets exist for that use.
Can a steel door be a fire exit?
Yes, provided it opens in the direction of escape where required and has hardware that works without a key. BS EN 1125 panic bars or BS EN 179 emergency exit devices are used for this. Your fire risk assessment should confirm what the door needs.
