Kent Case Study

Kerb appeal. Whether you're preparing to sell, want to outdo your neighbours or just improve the overall look of your home, it's an important thing for most homeowners. The Kent family from Gamston, Rushcliffe were looking to upgrade the appearance of the home by replacing their front door and windows. Gamston, roughly 3 miles outside of Nottingham city centre, is popular with commuters who work in the city. Most of the homes in the area were built in the 1980s, but the Kent’s home has a beautiful period look that required a touch-up.

Thermally efficient composite doors

The home’s existing door and windows were also prone to draughts, so improving the thermal efficiency was essential. The Lifestyle Windows team went through the Kent family’s requirements and, after browsing our range of doors, they decided on a composite door. These doors are known for their outstanding energy efficiency, perfect for the unpredictable Nottinghamshire climate. Composite doors provide a premium and wood aesthetic, without the maintenance requirements of timber. The Kents opted for an Irish Oak door, an ideal colour to provide an attractive contrast to the dark features of the rest of the home's facade.
