DOORS TECHNICAL
Discover why our doors are so special
Exceeding expectations & regulations...
All RK aluminium front doors far exceed the current recommended energy efficiency regulations. Doors energy efficiency is measured as a 'U value' and new doors must have a minimum U value of 1.8W/m2K (1.6W/m2K in Scotland) or less, with lower numbers being better. A typical wooden door might have a U value of around 2.5W/m2K and a lot of new doors will be just meeting the basic requirement of 1.80W/m2K...
Our doors far exceed this level and our 'Excellence' Premium door has a U value rating at an amazing 0.67W/m2K* with our 'Excellence' Standard door has a U Value of 0.92W/m2K*, far better than many other doors on the market.
Secure front doors
Enhanced security on all doors...
All our doors, benefit from "Secured by Design" and "PAS 24:2022" enhanced security certification to ensure full compliance with UK Buidling Regulation and insurance requirements and giving our customers complete peace of mind.
