• Heritage Doors Beat Passive House Standard

U-values for the new Residence Door Collection by Apeer have been confirmed. They show that heritage solid doors in the twenty-model range perform considerably better than the Passive House Institute standard.

Testing also confirms that doors in the Collection with glass cassettes, will also comfortably outperform the anticipated, Future Homes Standard for new build homes.

This all puts the Residence Door Collection by Apeer in the highest tier of thermal performing residential doors currently available for the UK home improvement sector.

To complement Residence Collection windows, each door will be presented in a a 120mm front-to-back format.

Traditional, contemporary and stable door designs are included in the range, with 78mm quadruple sealed glass units as standard where relevant.

Construction utilises GPR skins around a high-density PU core, reinforced with aluminium anti-cut through security mesh embedded within the core of each door.

Performance is enhanced by weather deflectors and Stormguard or full frame thresholds.

Every door, including skins and glass units, will be manufactured by Apeer at its 120,000sq.ft Ballymena factory.

Colour

Aimed squarely at the premium sector, the range at launch comprises nine standard colours (seven grained and two smooth), with the availability of full sidelights and top lights now, with half lights and others to follow.

Security

Hardware and furniture will reflect the high-quality construction of the doors, whilst extra touches such as Ultion KeyTag-equipped, ‘Apple Find My’ trackable keys complete the specification.
