Our vinyl doors, and accessories are supplied to companies who offer a bespoke manufactured solution to any room in your home. Only the finest quality raw materials are used, underpinned by exceeding BS6222 1993 quality standard with up to a 10 year guarantee.
Vinyl doors are made with MDF, using wood from sustainably managed forests. These are cut to size, and routed with any design. Finally, they are finished with high quality vinyl. Our manufacturing process recycles over 99% of waste.
Our local environment
Our factory is located right on the historic Rochdale Canal, which was built at the end of the 18th century. The Rochdale Canal is one of just three canals which cross the Pennines and is popular with leisure boaters. Our cutting-edge dust extractor and other technologies in the factory ensure we minimise air pollution to the canal and surrounding area.
We are also passionate about increasing the number of trees in Rochdale. In 2019 we became a corporate member of the City of Trees 100 Trees Club.
