The Residence Collection has launched a new door designer, a feature which has been introduced alongside its new range of doors.

Created with homeowners, installers and fabricators in mind, the intuitive tool makes it easier than ever for homeowners to design their dream door, personalise every detail ready for the fabricator and connect directly with a local installer.

The designer was launched at the FIT Show 2025 and allows homeowners to explore options using all The Residence Collection systems, R9, R7 and R².

The designer also offers full control over the finishing details. Homeowners can customise frame colour, choose between decorative or square beading and choose their glazing preference. Hardware selections include Pear Drop, Monkey Tail and the new Knurled handle, with nine finishes available for Pear Drop and Monkey Tail and four for Knurled.

According to the Residence Collection, the innovation isn’t just a win for homeowners – it’s a game-changer for the wider supply chain. For installers, the designer acts as a direct lead generation tool, helping them connect with engaged, design-ready customers in their area. Once a homeowner completes their door design, they simply enter their postcode and are matched with a local, approved installer.

This also gives the installer a clearer specification of the homeowner’s requirements and helps reduce any miscommunication with the homeowner. It also serves as a powerful selling tool, helping the installer network close deals more easily with a visual, interactive customer journey.
