Phoenix Doors
present’s ‘Meridian’
The 70mm high performance, rebated composite door
Phoenix Doors is proud to
unveil its new, high performance 70mm rebated composite door range, ‘Meridian’.
A game-changing, luxury
product that will help installers meet today’s consumer
demands and take full advantage of the premium composite door market.
Offering the highest specifications in security and A-rated
thermal-efficiency, the 70mm double-rebated door with triple weatherseals and 50mm triple-glazing
delivers outstanding weather,
energy and acoustic performance.
In addition, the Meridian range is
manufactured to achieve Secured
by Design as standard.
“We are extremely proud of
the newest, premium addition
to our comprehensive composite door range; the Meridian is a
truly niche product for discerning homeowners, which in turn,
creates exciting market opportunities for our customers,” says
Haydon Statham, Phoenix Doors’
Sales Director. “With outstanding
performance in all areas, the Meridian door ticks all the boxes for
installers and consumers alike.”
Taking its name from the Meridian Wood, located next to the
Phoenix door manufacturing facility at Bluntisham, this new range
is being promoted as a ‘doorway
to a greener future’. The innovative Meridian door, with a u-value
as low as 1.0, is specifically-designed to champion sustainability
and efficiency without compromising the natural environment by
using the latest modern materials
and manufacturing techniques.
To further underpin the Meridian door’s credentials as a truly
industry-leading product, tests
have shown that it is 19% more
thermally-efficient than a 48mm
solid timber core composite door
and 17% more thermally-efficient
than a 44mm traditional timber
panelled door.
Demonstrating their commitment to the environment and
sustainability, Phoenix Doors have
pledged their on-going support
of Meridian Wood through the
Woodland Trust and have sponsored a tree-planting scheme at
the site to help ‘preserve and
protect’ it for future generations
to enjoy.
Alongsid e broadening choice
for customers, an added benefit
of the Meridian door is ease of
installation, as Haydon explains:
“Because double-rebate doors are
easier to install and adjust on site
compared to single-rebate doors,
fitters will also love them. The
double rebate allows for greater
tolerances in movement between
the door leaf and frame during
installation – similar to installing a
PVC panel door.”
The Meridian range delivers versatility and choice; the collection
includes nine styles, all named after native tree types and features
both traditional and contemporary
designs with 5 brand new and exclusive glazing options. Available
in a palette of stylish new heritage
colour finishes including French
Grey, Duck Egg and Chartwell
Green, plus bright solid colours
like ‘Very Berry’ – the range has
been designed to support installers and meet current consumer
demand, whilst helping to create
valuable new business opportunities for Phoenix customers.
Furthermore, with the recent
launch of Phoenix’s in-house
paint spraying facility, catering for
any specified RAL colour means
that the personalisation options of
Meridian are virtually limitless!
Haydon adds: “This is an important, elegant and market-leading
addition to our GRP composite
door range that we predict will
make a positive impact with
our customers and provide the
broadest product range available
today in the UK composite door
market.”
To support the official June
launch of this exciting new door
range, Phoenix have produced
a premium consumer brochure,
printed on environmentally sustainable FSC® paper, dedicated
Meridian point-of-sale material
and a fully-responsive consumer
website. This launch comes at an
exciting time for Phoenix Doors,
who will also be launching a new
website to showcase their entire
composite and uPVC panel door
range, in conjunction with an innovative online ordering system.
