Standard and Custom Options We have standard size kits and we can produce custom sizes:

  • Standard size kits for common door configurations
  • Custom sizes manufactured to exact project requirements
  • Professional measurement and specification services available
  • Bespoke solutions for unique architectural applications

Adjustable Height System The standard pillars can be cut to a lower height using a fine-toothed saw or if you require a higher size there are pillar extensions available as an optional add-on:

  • Cut to lower height with standard woodworking tools
  • Pillar extensions available for increased height requirements

Popular White Finish White is by far the most popular colour for classic entrance appeal:

  • Timeless white finish complements all architectural styles
  • Professional appearance enhances property presentation
  • Classic colour choice maintains lasting appeal

Colour Matching Although we can't guarantee to match your existing white if you have PVC doors and windows, and you know the profile manufacturer, we will do our best to use a similar shade of white:

  • Best-effort colour coordination with existing PVC installations
  • Professional colour consultation for optimal matching
  • Expert advice on complementary colour selection
  • Quality colour consistency throughout the system

Professional Installation

Simple Wall Mounting As you can see from the custom size door surround above these pillars can be screwed to the wall using cups and caps to hide the screw tops:

  • The cups and caps system provides a clean, professional finish
  • Hidden fixings maintain aesthetic appeal
  • Simple installation process with standard tools
  • Professional appearance without visible mounting hardware

Batten Installation Method. You can also use battens behind the pillars. These battens are fixed to the wall, so the pillar can be pushed over them. Then, a solvent-free fixing glue is used to hold the pillar in place.

  • Batten system for secure, professional installation
  • Solvent-free fixing glue ensures reliable bonding
  • Pillar top glueing to batten tops for a complete system
  • Flashing installation with standard lead flashing coverage

Maintenance Excellence

Minimal Maintenance Requirements If you use silicone to seal the edges of the door surrounds, we recommend a forever white silicone to avoid mould build-up:

  • Forever white silicone prevents unsightly mould development
  • Professional sealing maintains weather protection
  • Quality sealant selection ensures long-term performance

Annual Maintenance. Then, once a year, a quick wash with very mild soapy water is all the maintenance required for these pillars:

  • Annual washing with mild soapy water maintains the appearance
  • Minimal maintenance requirements save time and costs
  • Easy-clean finish requires no special treatments
  • Professional appearance maintained with simple care
