A door for the future
You may have never given a second thought to what a door is made of but there may be more to it than you think. A timber door may look great when it’s new but apart from the regular chore of painting, it may crack or warp. It may also have simple, old-fashioned locking mechanisms that offer little resistance to even an amateur burglar.
A PVC-U door needs less maintenance but may sometimes look less than authentic. Enter the next-generation AMULET, a composite door with the lustrous look of timber and all the energy efficiency, weather resistance and durability of modern materials. The part you see is a tough GRP skin that’s not only highly scratch-resistant but also coloured throughout its thickness to keep its appearance if it should become scratched. This is mounted onto a composite material sub-frame supported by laminated timber stiffeners and pressure filled with an energy efficient foam. The outer edge is then protected by a hard wearing PVC-U edge band to provide a neat and durable finish.
The doorframe can also be supplied with a low-profile aluminium or carbon fibre threshold to improve accessibility in accordance with Building Regulations Part M.
Security
Home security is now high among everyone’s priorities and the AMULET door is built and equipped to live up to your expectations. As well as its sturdy, high-tech construction,the door comes with exeptional guarantees on all aspects of the door.
Among all the high-tech armoury, one aspect of the AMULET’s defences is unashamedly old-fashioned. While the practice of ‘lockbumping’ means any amateur intruder can defeat most cylinder locks in seconds, the AMULET door has gone back to the ageold principle of the mortice lock. Backed by an array of multipoint hook-locks, the AMULET’s locking system offers all the security a door could ever need.
