Distinction launches Grandeur Collection

Distinction Doors has introduced the Grandeur Collection – an improved range of high quality 70mm door styles that’s been designed to deliver increased thermal efficiency and security alongside luxe styling.

The collection is said to take the essence of the company’s former 70mm double rebated door range and elevates it. Distinction has added more door styles and glass designs and introduced a new slab which opens up three further design options. Each slab now has the added feature of a security board.

Emma Fowlds, marketing manager for Distinction Doors, commented: “This is an important step in helping our fabricators and their customers make the most of premium opportunities. There is growing demand for larger, more substantial doors – driven largely by the steel and aluminium door market, and we’re pleased to offer an attractive, high-quality alternative. The Grandeur Collection will enable customers to upsell and also target homeowners who are looking to significantly upgrade their homes.”

New designs

Alongside signature and traditional cottage styles, Distinction has added door designs from the Contemporary Esprit and Contemporary Renown ranges. Many glazed designs have left, centre and right design options too.

The door supplier has also brought in the GD01 slab from its Infinity range which can be configured into three more designs. Distinction anticipates that these will prove popular with modern homeowners. As will another new addition – the clean and contemporary Chatsworth and Wentworth decorative glass designs.

According to Distinction, what sets the Grandeur Collection apart is the weight and quality of the doors. They are said to be nearly 50% thicker than the company’s standard composite doors.

The 70mm door core is also reported to offer 35% better thermal efficiency than the standard 44mm door core. This is further improved with the addition of 50mm triple glazed laminated decorative glass.

Distinction adds that fitting twin seals during fabrication can also improve noise reduction and provide extra protection against adverse weather.

Each door style features Distinction’s authentic woodgrain effect which is also repeated on the glazing cassette. Homeowners can choose from an exclusive colour palette and the glazed 70mm door styles are compatible with Distinction’s decorative and obscure glass.

The Grandeur Collection is said to be easy to install and can fit into any existing PVC-U outer frame and uses Distinction’s deglazable cassette.
