| Each residential
door, including double and French doors, fabricated in
Scotia’s 24,000
square feet factory is made from pvc-u extruded profile which
is specifically made for doors.
Many cheaper products use
window profile for doors, which for the first few years may
not prove to be a problem, but as time goes by and the product
has to prove its fitness for the job, unfortunately many
fail.
With a Scotia door we only use door extrusion and in
order to ensure strength and rigidity the outer frame and
the door leaf are reinforced with steel and aluminium. This
steel reinforcement is then what is used as a fixing for
our high security locking system which incorporates three
substantial steel claw hooks, four steel roller fixings and
a latch.
In addition each door comes complete with high security
flag hinges, which are fixed, into the steel reinforcement
in order to provide better security. Many competitors fix
their locking system with self tapping screws into the pvc-u
this can be a problem particularly if any force is applied
as the screws tend to easily tear from the frame.
All Scotia
doors are also internally beaded for security and 28 mm sealed
units incorporating toughened low “e” toughened
safety glass are fitted as standard which is much more difficult
to break than standard float glass. Toughened glass also offers
safety benefits as if it were to break the glass breaks into
small pea size pieces, which are much less likely to harm members
of your family, where as float glass can break into large,
sharp dangerous pieces.
Our residential doors come in a wide
variety of designs and can incorporate side screens, fanlights
etc.
The range is also available in a wide variety of Colour options include:
White.
Rosewood.
Rosewood on white.
Cherry and cherry on white.
