Door colours — supply only, delivered in about a week
Door and frame colours.
Anthracite grey, RAL 7016, is far and away the most-ordered colour in Britain and has been for years. Black, RAL 9005, is the next. If you are unsure, ask for a sample before you commit — a colour on a screen is not a colour on a door in daylight.

Door colours — questions we get asked
What is RAL 7016?
Anthracite grey — the most-ordered window and door colour in the UK. It reads as a very dark warm grey rather than a flat black.
Can I have a different colour inside and out?
On aluminium, yes. On uPVC you are choosing from foil options rather than specifying freely, but dual-sided foils exist.
Do special colours cost more?
Yes, and they take longer, because the frame goes through powder coating as a one-off rather than coming from coated stock. We will price and date it before you order.
Can I get a sample?
Yes, and we would rather you did than guess. Ask when you enquire.
Does dark colour fade?
Modern powder coat is guaranteed typically 25 years against chalking and fading. Near the coast, specify a marine-grade coating — standard coat does not survive salt air.
