Suffolk
Composite and steel doors in Suffolk
Businesses across the East of England take deliveries in different ways, so we size your Suffolk rear door around roll cages, pallets or whatever you handle.
A flat above a Suffolk shop may need a fire-rated door on the shared route, so we check that before suggesting a standard composite door. A worn frame can undo a good door, so on your Suffolk job in the East of England we check the wall, fixings and threshold first.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Suffolk?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Suffolk, including Bury St Edmunds, Felixstowe, Ipswich, Lowestoft.
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.
Is a composite or steel door better for a shop's back door?
Steel is usually the stronger choice for a rear lane or yard door, and composite suits a door that also needs to look good and keep heat in. Composite doors can be tested to PAS 24, so the real answer depends on risk, use and appearance.
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.
