Complete Door Solution- Inside and Out
A contemporary renovation project in Leicestershire has been completed with the installation of a comprehensive suite of high-quality residential doors from Hörmann UK, showcasing the brand’ s ability to deliver cohesive solutions both externally and internally.
The family home features a Hörmann sectional garage door and aluminium entrance door, complemented inside by a range of side-hinged, pocket, and fire doors. Carefully selected high-specification materials and contemporary finishes have been used throughout, ensuring a seamless match with the property’ s modern architectural aesthetic and premium interior design.
Purchased by the current owners in 2023, the property came with planning permission already in place for a substantial extension. Building on this, the owners refined the scheme with a number of personal adjustments and selected Hörmann as their door partner of choice. Initially drawn to Hörmann’ s sectional garage doors, they subsequently explored the wider range of entrance and internal doors, recognising a portfolio that aligned seamlessly with their ambition to deliver high-quality, modern solutions throughout the home. Construction commenced in Autumn 2024, with all the internal and external doors supplied and fitted by Hörmann Partner Standard installer A S Doors of Melton Mowbary. The renovation was completed in time for Christmas 2025, delivering a stylish and cohesive finish both inside and out.
Externally, the property features a Hörmann LPU42 double-sized sectional garage door, designed with a 42mm thick door leaf that delivers excellent thermal efficiency— making it an ideal choice for the integrated garage. For added convenience and security, the door is fully automated with a Hörmann Supramatic P motor, operated by two hand transmitters. The door is finished in elegant Silkgrain, perfectly complementing the home’ s modern architectural style, while the Agate grey( RAL 7038) colour harmonises seamlessly with the external cladding and overall material palette of the property.
A Hörmann ThermoSafe high-performance aluminium entrance door with a glazed side panel was selected to complement and match the style and premium finish of the sectional garage door. The door features a 73mm thick leaf, delivering excellent thermal efficiency with Thermosafe doors being able to achieve U-values as low as 0.8 W /( m ² K). Equipped with the latest multi-point locking systems, it provides enhanced security and peace
