Boost the beauty of your garden with new external doors this Spring

As the weather finally looks like it is beginning to turn, and this long winter seems to be (mostly) behind us, it gives us all a chance to get out a bit more and enjoy the outdoors. This could include days out, visiting friends and new places; however, it also allows us to enjoy our own homes much more and in greater comfort. As Spring arrives, homeowners can have their windows and doors open more, allowing the breeze to flow through the home in a comforting way and now is the perfect time to take full advantage of this, and boost the functionality and beauty of your home with new external doors.

These could be sliding patio doors, traditional French doors, or stylish folding bifold doors. In this article, we will look into how new external doors such as these, can allow you to get greater enjoyment out of your home in the months to come. For the purposes of this article, we will be covering the larger types of garden door / external doors, and not singular entrance doors such as front and back doors.

Maximise enjoyment of both home and garden

With spring arriving, those who take pride in their garden will soon benefit from blooming flowers, healthier looking grass, and overall, more colour and beauty coming back into their pride and joy.

External doors allow homeowners to take further enjoyment in this. A large set of sliding doors, or folding doors for example allow you to have a large, open space that blends home and garden seamlessly. This also maximises the view from the home, allowing you to fully take in your garden and appreciate the work you have put into it.

Functionality as a result is greatly improved with a new set of external doors. Having a new set of well-constructed doors that operate with ease, improves access between home and garden. This is especially ideal for those with children and pets, and regardless of the size of opening, French doors, bifold doors and patio doors can each be a suitable solution for your home that both suits your needs, and adds value and beauty to the property.

New external doors for social events

The beauty of the rear of a home is just as important as the front. For those who host and socialise often, especially in the summer months with garden parties and BBQs, the beauty of the rear of the home should be a key consideration for homeowners as this is where the focus will be, and it has the opportunity to shine.

The doors at the rear of the home will be used more during the Spring and Summer seasons, and if you are hosting a BBQ for example, will be used constantly throughout the day. Therefore, you need a set of doors that function well and with ease, and may even be a talking point. A large set of bifold doors for example can cover a very wide opening, which can catch the eye when you walk into a room, and be the finishing touch to a beautiful patio area. We are often told by customers who we visit on our photoshoots that their new windows and doors have had the unexpected effect of making their neighbours jealous, and are often asked where they got their products from, as they cannot help but envision how it would help transform their homes as well.

Hosting people is made easier by having a large set of doors that can remain open the whole time with ease without compromising on their functionality, and saves doors having to be constantly opened and closed throughout, and this is where bifold and patio doors especially can shine.

Better temperature control in summer and preparing for winter

New doors and windows that are constructed to a high standard, such as engineered timber for example, allow for greater performance in all seasons. In the summer especially, the UK can suffer from high levels of humidity which can make temperatures inside the home difficult to cope with. Having well-constructed windows and doors is a key factor that can help combat this. While a naturally warm, insulating material, timber windows and doors allow for greater heat regulation inside the property throughout the year and can help combat humidity in the summer, combined with high performing, toughened double glazing.

Now is also the perfect time to considering upgrading your windows and doors throughout the home. Spring and Summer mean our heating will need to be on less and less anyway, which helps save on our energy bills, but it also gives us the perfect window (forgive the pun), to prepare our homes for the next winter. Before we even have to worry about the next winter, preparing the home, and upgrading it where possible to put it in the best position, will both save you money in the long run, and allow you to live more comfortably when temperatures do inevitably drop again late into the year.
