PVC is ideal for doors that require very high resistance to impact damage. The 2mm-thick material absorbs general knocks, while the through colour masks surface scratches.

For our encapsulated doorset range, the PVC fully encapsulates the door leaf faces and edges. Across the rest of our doorset range, the face of the door leaf is complemented with hardwood lippings, which can be exposed, concealed or finished with our very popular S-rad detail.

Although vision panels serve a genuine purpose, they become a prominent feature that can be used to enhance the appearance of door leaves.

Our exclusive range of aperture configurations provides the means to create unique designs.

Standard glazing bead

As standard we offer three types of glazing bead – projecting, flush and steel trim. Timber beads will always be hardwood and can either be lacquered or painted to match the door face.

They are generally fixed with steel pins, punched in and filled although alternative methods such as screw fixings are available. Flush beads with laminate faced doors will have the aperture and outer corners of the bead radiused. Steel trims can be powder coated to match any RAL colour.

Standard frames

We have developed an extensive range of frames that provide our customers with a choice that is unique and exclusive to David Smith St Ives doorsets. Frames alter the appearance of the doorset and are used in different guises to achieve practical and pleasing features. The sectional profiles, the contraction and the materials used to manufacture frames contribute to the performance levels of all doorsets. We are able to combine these requirements with our doors to give the optimum doorset performance and aesthetic.
