The Whitmore door is the ultimate timeless classic.
It is the most popular door style in the UK for a reason, because it works with just about every house type, and will never go out of fashion!
This door has come in at the top choice for our Comp Doors and it is clear to see why. Offering a good amount of light into the home with two panes of glazing at either side, which can be chosen in 20 decorative glass options, this door is the perfect addition to any home!
But what colours is Whitmore seen in most?

Coming in third, the Bedford door also shows the popular central glazing panel similarly to the Abercorn and the Mowbray.

For all of our composite doors, foiled white is the most popular choice of frame colour. Due to its crisp, clean appearance and ability to brighten up a doorway, it creates the perfect frame for any entranceway. We can see why customers love the white frame look, creating a perfect contrast between the popular grey shades.
