Back Doors

Our Range of Back Doors

At Direct Doors, we supply back doors in a variety of designs, sizes, and glazing options to ensure you find the specifications you need. 

Material Options

We offer back doors in several timbers to suit different budgets, aesthetics, and functions:

• Hemlock: Smooth-grained veneer, ideal for painting and finishing to your own design.

• Hardwood: Durable hardwood veneers over a solid core, offering excellent strength and wear resistance.

• Oak: A classic veneer with a distinctive grain pattern that adds a natural character.

Unique Back Door Styles 

We offer three distinct types of back doors for various sizing requirements: 

• Single door: Ideal for most homes, offering easy access and a clean look with various panel designs.

• Double doors: Perfect for wider spaces, these doors create a grander entrance while maximising airflow when open.

• Stable door: Split horizontally so the top and bottom operate independently, perfect for ventilation while keeping children or pets secure.

Glazing Options for Privacy & Aesthetics

Choose from five stylish glazing options to balance natural light and privacy:

• Unglazed: Ready for your custom glass or solid fill.

• Clear: Simple, transparent glass to let in natural light.

• Bevelled:  Decorative angled glass edges for a subtle, elegant touch.

• Designer: Patterned glass for a distinctive look. 

• Reeded: Vertical textured glass that allows light in while maintaining privacy.

Door Sizes & Weight

Our back doors are available in standard sizes to fit most UK homes. Heights range from 1980–2135mm, with widths spanning from narrower single-door sizes to wider double-door options. Depending on the size and style, door weights generally range from 12kg for the smallest doors up to around 38kg for larger, double-door configurations.

FAQs about Our Back Doors

Here’s some more information to guide your shopping. 

How do you choose the best back door for your home?

Choosing an external rear door involves balancing functionality, design, and durability. It also depends on whether you want a ready-to-install option or intend to add your own customisations. Some important factors to consider include: 

• Veneer material: Choose from oak, hemlock, or hardwood.

• Style: This includes room size and functional preferences (airflow and accessibility).

• Glazing: Consider the amount of light and privacy you’re looking for.

• Finish and maintenance: Unfinished back doors require decoration and coating before installation, or pre-finished options that are ready to install.

• Safety: Exterior rear doors with little to no glass are safer and more secure. 

Do your external back doors provide good insulation?

Yes, our exterior back doors offer excellent insulation due to their high-quality wood veneers. 

Additionally, our glazing options also contribute to better energy efficiency within your rooms. Speak to our experts if you’re interested in double-glazed back door that maximise insulation.   

Do your back doors come with a guarantee?

Yes, most of our rear doors come with a 12-month guarantee; however, the specific terms and conditions vary by product. Bespoke options usually have different ordering, cancellation, and return policies. We recommend checking the information on the specific product you’re interested in purchasing.
