Metal Doors
Made from Architectural Bronze
We offer various bronze door systems for use internally or externally which can be individually tailored to suit the style and aesthetics you are trying to achieve. Most of our doors can be designed to be fully glazed, or incorporate solid bronze panels.
Why Choose Bronze for Doors?
Bronze is a beautiful metal that has been used in architecture for centuries. It combines timeless aesthetics with practical benefits and sustainability, making it a long-term investment for future generations to enjoy.
Slim Profiles
Whilst exceptionally strong, architectural bronze is a refined metal alloy and can be extruded to slender sections with great detail. The fine sightlines of all our bronze systems will produce a slim-framed door with interesting and attractive transom and abutting detail.
Low Maintenance
Bronze is a non-ferrous metal and naturally resistant to corrosion requiring minimal maintenance to retain its durability and charm. Unlike ferrous metals such as steel, bronze does not require galvanising and painting or powder coating which can chip, peel and will deteriorate over time.
Striking Aesthetic
The aesthetics of bronze provide an incomparable finish compared with traditional powder-coated steel and aluminium metal windows and doors. Consider why bronze was the chosen metal of great civilisations for the beautifully aged statues and coins that remain in existence today.
Slim Bronze Door
This is a slender profile ideal for internal doors and screens. When combined with Thermabronze™ fixed panels, it also provides a solution for internal and external screens.
The doors are fitted with 20mm double-glazed units, secured into place with either a traditional or contemporary decorative bronze bead. The Slim Door can open inwards and outwards and is secured with a Euro cylinder latch and internal shoot bolts and has been tested for Part Q security.

Semi Slim Bronze Doors
The semi slim door incorporates all the features of the slim door but with a slightly wider master door stile which is fitted with a multi-point locking system for enhanced security, fully operational both inside and out, and making it ideal for external doors and screens.
The doors can open inwards and outwards and are fitted with 18mm double-glazed units secured into place with a decorative traditional or contemporary bronze bead.

This technically advanced thermally broken system combines the advantages of a slim and attractive profile with outstanding U-value performance.
Designed to be fitted with 38.8mm triple glazing secured into place with either a traditional bronze bead, the Thermabronze Door is outward-opening only and is fitted with a multi-point locking system for enhanced security.

Bronze Clad Doors
This is a thermally broken system offering enhanced thermal efficiency. An inner timber frame is clad internally and externally in bronze, so the beauty of bronze is appreciated throughout. The doors are designed to fit into a flush reveal and can be either inward or outward opening.
They will accept 18mm double-glazed units which are secured into place with a decorative bead. Fitted with a multi-point locking system and Part Q security tested, the clad door provides enhanced security.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION → VIEW GALLERY →Timber Doors with Bronze
Ideal for those wanting a traditional timber door to complement bronze windows. Available in three profiles – Belton, Old Mill and Hardwick – many variations are achievable incorporating either the Advanced, Thermabronze™ or Heritage profiles. They are also ideally suited for those projects where folding doors are required.

Panelled Doors
When a glazed door is not suitable for a project, we are able to provide panelled doors which will provide greater privacy and screening. These are generally produced using timber backed bronze sheet, but we have created doors with a solid panel or kick plate in a few different materials to great effect.
With bronze panelling, as bronze is a living metal, there will be some natural inconsistency in tone and colour which is generally considered pleasing.
Curved Doors
Bronze can be bent and curved to form most arcs and shapes, for existing or new openings, whether within the door or as a curved glazed panel above.
Curved or shaped doors can be produced in all our systems, although some of our extrusions will bend to a tighter radius than others. All have a minimum bending radius, and our designer will discuss with you which is the most appropriate system for your preferred design, if of interest.

Bronze Tones
Bronze can be antiqued to two standard lustres – Mid Bronze and Dark Bronze. This choice helps to achieve the best look for your project and complements other materials in your home. We can also supply products in Bright Bronze which strips the brass alloy back to its raw gold-like colour.
