To get the most out of your Bournemouth home, it’s beneficial to have a strong, stylish set of doors.

As well as being key access points, doors also play a vital role in the appearance, feel, security, energy efficiency, and soundproofing of your property.

That’s why at Poole Joinery we offer a huge variety of interior and exterior doors, meaning that no matter if you live in beautiful Boscombe, our lively town centre, or the tranquil Bear Cross, we’ve got a door to fit your home.

This blog will introduce you to several door styles, as well as colour and security options to hopefully present you with the ideal fit.

What are the different styles of doors on offer?

Composite Doors

Composite front doors are renowned for their high levels of security, noise reduction, energy efficiency, low maintenance, durability, and versatility when it comes to styling, all key traits when looking for the perfect entrance to your home.

Composite doors are made from a selection of perfectly suited materials, including a solid timber core and a glass-reinforced plastic outer shell, enabling all the benefits a modern door should have.

We believe that a front door in Bournemouth should look the part, so at Poole Joinery our composite doors are available to be finished in a variety of hardware, with knockers, letter plates, and spyholes all able to add the ideal final touch.

Bifold Door

A great way to allow the fresh Bournemouth seaside air to flow into your home is by installing bifold doors.

Bifold doors open by sliding along a track and folding back on themselves and are a great option to easily access an outdoor space such as a patio or garden area.

They consist of large panes of glass, which offer excellent views and allow natural light to flow into your property.

Like composite doors, bifolds are also incredibly secure, with shoot bolts preventing them from being lifted from their frames or prised open.

Sliding Patio Doors

Like bi-fold doors, sliding patio doors are an excellent way to easily access a garden whilst allowing fresh air and natural light to transform your interior space.

With a simple, contemporary design, the panes slide sideways to save space, and they can come installed in uPVC or aluminium with Poole Joinery.

Stable Doors

A perfect, high quality choice for those after a traditional, quirky aesthetic, stable doors (sometimes referred to as Dutch doors) feature two independently operated door leaves, allowing you to open up the top half of the door whilst keeping the bottom one closed.

They’re a great way to allow ventilation to flow into your property without the risk of pets or children running loose. They are durable, secure, and boast impressive thermal efficiency, which can save you money on energy bills.

What door colours are in fashion in 2024?

Woodgrain effects are popular this year as homeowners crave a more natural aesthetic – a timeless style that looks particularly appropriate in Bournemouth and the surrounding woodland areas including the New Forest.

Great examples of these available at Poole Joinery include English Oak, Nut Tree, and Irish Oak.

We’re also noticing more people opt for a standout front door, utilising colours such as Cobalt Blue, Red, and Green to create the ideal first impression.

How are doors from Poole Joinery kept secure?

As well as style, it’s important to prioritise security when installing the right door for you.

That’s why at Poole Joinery we fit all our doors with advanced multi-point locking systems, preventing any weak points or vulnerable areas – deterring unwelcome visitors.

We make sure to use the market’s strongest materials, with our composite doors boasting a GRP outer shell that is resistant to significant impacts.
