Scot Doors (secured by Design)

All Scotdoors styles feature a bonded composite construction comprising: 6mm hardwood veneered laminated sheeting. 0.3mm aluminium plate. 48mm insulated core.

This balanced construction gives a high degree of stability, the aluminium providing an effective moisture barrier. The insulating core provides exceptional U-value (0.84) and significantly reduces the effects of temperature differential - the most common cause of door failure.

The frame can be constructed from quality redwood or hardwood. Redwood is the standard.

To resist foot traffic wear, all frames and sidelights have a durable hardwood threshold. For wheelchair access, special low level thresholds can be provided in accordance with Dept of Environment & Welsh Office, Access & Facilities for Disabled People, Approved Document M 1999 Edition and Scottish Executive Technical Standards, Access & Facilities for Dwellings Pt. Q, Amended December 1999.

With a combination of rebated doors and frames, integral draught stripping and a low level weather bar, Scotdoors provide an effective barrier against adverse weather conditions.

Air Permeability: 600 Pa
