A door from Fort! Ok, so Fort Doors are not experts in jokes, but they are renowned for making a stir in the market supplying standard doors that have an innovative twist. Fort Doors supply a range of linear and Georgian Up + Over doors (pretty standard) but they are supplied on a 50mm frame. EVEN RETRACTABLES! This has allowed Fort’s customers to fit standard doors in more applications, which has not only given them an advantage over their competitors, but has given the home owner a wider, and less expensive solution for their property. The next product that has proved particularly popular is the range of side-hinged doors. As standard Fort Door’s supply 4-point locking (that’s not even the twist!). In addition to this is the Fort premier pack that is supplied with an optional threshold which is ideal in the assistance of keeping debris out of the garage. And the Fort Twist? The option of having side-hinged doors up to 9’ wide insulated. The next product Fort has launched is almost entirely innovative! A standard up+over door on a 50mm frame, but with a built in pedestrian door. The Fort Smart-pass door is such a useful selling point, for people who want to have a standard up+over door, but with the convenience of a built in pedestrian door. With a range of 14 standard colours, and two laminates; matching personnel doors; a range of Timber and GRP doors on offer please call Matthew Berry for more information on 07900 943 262 or email m.berry@fortdoors.co.uk For supporting literature; trade accounts, more information or to make your next standard door innovative email orders@fortdoors.co.uk
