Capps Case Study

The Capps family was looking to upgrade the windows and doors in their charming heritage home sat in the picturesque village of Papplewick, Nottingham.

After seeing some work that we’d previously done for one of the neighbours in the surrounding area, the Capps family was immediately impressed with the quality of our work so got in contact to make their own enquiry.

Their beautiful 18th Century cottage tucked up in the village of Papplewick boasts an authentic look and feel; however, the windows and doors were starting to look tired and dated.

A top choice of Residence 9 windows and a Solidor composite door

We worked closely with the Capps family to choose new windows and doors that accentuated and retained the charm of their beautiful heritage home.

After sharing our best visual and technical advice, the family opted to update their windows and backdoor with Residence 9 – a window and door system designed to authentically replicate 18th Century timber designs.

And what a great choice they made! Our Solidor front doors are the most safe and secure composite door on the market with three different lock options, and three different lock positions available for you to choose from. Yes, you read that right – three of each!

Boasting one of the largest palette of front door colours available

In addition to offering a large variety of locking features our Solidor doors also boast one of the largest palette of colours available for you to choose from. From painswick grey to chartwell green, there is a colour available for you to design your front door exactly how you’d like it. In this instance the family chose our premium range colour clotted cream which suits the property brilliantly.
