Why Solidor Doors Are a Top Choice for Surrey Homes

4 min read Doors

If you have been noticing more bold, beautifully designed front doors appearing around Surrey, there is a good chance many of them are Solidor doors.

In recent years, Solidor has become a favourite for homeowners who want doors that look stunning, feel solid, and perform all year. At Sheerwater Glass, we’ve installed many across Surrey and hear the same reasons from our customers time and again.

So what is behind the surge in popularity, and why are Surrey homeowners choosing Solidor for their homes right now?

A Front Door That Feels Truly Solid

One of the biggest reasons homeowners choose Solidor is right there in the name. They have a solid timber core.

This gives the door a noticeably sturdier feel when you open and close it. There is no flexing, no hollow sound, just a reassuring sense of strength. For many homeowners, especially those upgrading from an older door, the difference is immediate and impressive.

That solid core also plays a big role in insulation and security, making Solidor doors a practical upgrade as well as a visual one.

Kerb Appeal That Instantly Transforms Your Home

First impressions matter, and your front door sets the tone for the rest of your home. Solidor doors are designed to stand out for the right reasons.

With a wide choice of colours, from modern greys and bold statement shades to softer heritage tones, homeowners can choose a look that suits their property perfectly. Whether you live in a period cottage, a family home, or a more contemporary build, there is a Solidor style to match.

Decorative glazing, stylish hardware, and authentic door designs mean you can create a front door that feels personal, not off the shelf.

Energy Efficiency You Can Feel

Many Surrey homeowners come to us because their existing front door feels cold, draughty, or inefficient. Solidor doors are designed to tackle all of that.

Thanks to their solid timber core and high performance glazing options, they help keep warm air in and cold air out. This can make a noticeable difference to comfort, especially during winter, and can help reduce heat loss through one of the most used entrances in the home.

A warmer hallway and fewer draughts are benefits homeowners often notice straight away.

Security That Brings Peace of Mind

Security is a major factor for any front door, and Solidor doors are built with this firmly in mind.

They feature advanced multi point locking systems, robust hardware, and a strong door construction that makes forced entry far more difficult. Many homeowners tell us they simply feel more secure once their new door is installed.

For families, those working from home, or anyone who values peace of mind, this added reassurance is a big reason Solidor doors are so appealing.

Built to Last, Easy To Maintain

Surrey weather can be unpredictable, from wet winters to warm summers, and your front door needs to cope with it all.

Solidor doors are designed to withstand the elements without warping, cracking, or fading. Unlike timber doors, they do not require regular painting or varnishing. A simple clean now and then is usually all that is needed to keep them looking their best.

For busy households, this low maintenance appeal is a huge plus.

Designed Around You With the Solidor Door Builder

Another reason Solidor doors are so popular right now is the ability to design your own door.

With the Solidor door builder, homeowners can choose their style, colour, glazing, and hardware and see how it will look before ordering. This removes the guesswork and makes the process far more enjoyable and reassuring.

It also means your door is truly tailored to your home, rather than a standard design that everyone else has.
