New from Sashwise: Doors
If you’re planning to renovate your home in West London, particularly if you’re upgrading your windows, we have some exciting news! We have expanded our service offering to include the supply and fitting of front doors, back doors and French doors. Whether with solid or glazed panels and multi-point locking systems, this new service complements our expertise in high-quality, bespoke sash window installation, providing an excellent opportunity to elevate both the functionality and aesthetic appeal of your property.
Why upgrade your doors?
Doors play an essential role in connecting the inside of your home with your garden, patio, or outdoor space as well as providing a main entrance. Often, however, they can become neglected when compared to more visible elements like windows. Over time, they may wear down, compromising your home’s energy efficiency, security, and visual appeal. This is why upgrading your doors is so important—not only to enhance the functionality and beauty of your home but also to ensure safety and energy efficiency.
Here are some reasons why upgrading or adding a new back door and/or French doors can be a great decision for your home:
1. Improved Energy Efficiency
Modern doors, much like windows, are designed with advanced insulation technologies. These energy-efficient doors reduce heat loss in the winter and help keep your home cool in the summer. If your current doors are old or damaged, they may be allowing drafts or excessive heat to enter, increasing your energy bills. Installing new, insulated back doors and French doors can significantly reduce these energy costs. When done at the same time as new sash windows, you can ensure that your entire home benefits from enhanced thermal efficiency.
2. Enhanced Security
A door is your first line of defence, and older back doors, especially those made from timber that has aged poorly, can become vulnerable to break-ins. Modern doors are built with improved locking systems, reinforced materials, and more secure hinges. By upgrading your back doors with our new service, you will benefit from the latest security features designed to keep you and your family safe. French doors, while elegant, often come with concerns about security, but modern French doors are built with multi-point locking systems and toughened glass, providing both beauty and security in one package.
3. Better Aesthetic Appeal
Old, worn-out back doors and French doors can detract from your home’s appearance. Whether you choose traditional wooden designs or opt for modern materials, new doors can elevate the overall aesthetic of your property. We offer bespoke designs that can complement your home’s style, providing doors that not only look fantastic but also blend seamlessly with your new sash windows. By having both your windows and doors installed by the same company, you can create a cohesive design that enhances the visual appeal of your entire property.
4. Increased Property Value
Investing in new windows and doors is one of the most effective ways to boost your property’s value. Potential buyers are drawn to homes that are energy efficient, secure, and visually appealing. Upgrading both your sash windows and your back doors or French doors at the same time demonstrates to prospective buyers that you have invested in high-quality renovations, making your home more attractive on the property market.
5. More Natural Light
French doors are an excellent way to bring more natural light into your home. They can make small rooms feel larger and more open while providing beautiful views of your outdoor space. This is especially appealing if your property features a garden, patio, or any outdoor area that you’d like to showcase. Pairing new French doors with new windows allows you to create an interior space that is bathed in natural light, giving it a fresh, airy feel that will make your home more pleasant to live in.
The Benefits of Combining Door and Window Installations
If you’re already considering replacing your sash windows, there are several practical and financial advantages to upgrading or adding a back door and/or French doors at the same time. Here’s why combining these projects makes sense:
1. Cost Efficiency
By tackling both your window and door installation together, you can save on labour costs and potentially qualify for discounts on materials. Contractors typically charge a call-out or labour fee for each individual job, but by having the doors and windows replaced simultaneously, you can consolidate these costs. Our new offering allows you to bundle both services, saving time, money, and the inconvenience of scheduling separate installations.
2. Harmonised Aesthetic
When it comes to home renovations, consistency is key. Having mismatched doors and windows can disrupt the overall look of your home. By choosing a single company like Sashwise to handle both your sash window installation and door fittings, you ensure a seamless aesthetic. Whether you opt for traditional wooden designs or glazed doors with original stained glass, we will work with you to create a harmonious look that suits your home’s architecture.
3. Reduced Disruption
Home renovations, while exciting, can be disruptive. By having your windows and doors replaced at the same time, you minimise the number of visits required by tradespeople. This means less disruption to your daily routine, a faster completion time, and the ability to enjoy the benefits of your new windows and doors sooner. Our team of skilled professionals will ensure the project is completed efficiently and with minimal disturbance to your home life.
4. Improved Energy Efficiency
As mentioned earlier, upgrading both your windows and doors at the same time maximises the energy efficiency of your home. This not only translates to lower heating bills but also reduces your carbon footprint. New sash windows and doors are designed with the latest insulation technology, ensuring that your home stays warm in winter and cool in summer, with no drafts or energy loss.
5. Simplified Project Management
Coordinating multiple contractors for different elements of a home renovation can be a headache. With Sashwise handling both your windows and doors, you’ll enjoy streamlined communication and project management. Our experienced team will guide you through the process, from choosing the right designs to the final installation, ensuring that the entire project runs smoothly and efficiently.
