Solid Core, Not Hollow
A 44mm solid laminated timber core, not a hollow shell filled with foam. It shuts with a thud, not a rattle.
44mm solid core



Ultimate Home Solutions supplies and fits new composite doors across Kirkintilloch and the G66 villages, measured at your own step before anything is ordered. The town runs from the old streets round the Cross and the Cowgate, where the canal cuts straight through, out to the postwar terraces of Harestanes and Hillhead and the newer houses built on the Woodilee grounds. Lenzie adds a line of tall villas put up for Glasgow commuters once the railway arrived, and those are usually the widest doorways we measure in a week. A composite door suits all of them, because each one is made to the opening rather than trimmed to fit it: a solid core, around 44mm thick, under a moulded skin that never asks for a paintbrush. Trusted installers hang it in a day and all workmanship is guaranteed.
A painted timber door in Kirkintilloch spends half the year damp, between the canal, the Luggie and the rain that rolls off the Campsie Fells. It swells, it sticks, and the paint goes soft along the bottom rail. Composite is put together so that water never gets into it at all. This is what the door is made of.

Same-day installWindows done lovely job. Fitters fantastic. No complaints from start to finish. Would recommended to anyone.
From start to finish very professional, fantastic job looks great.
Entire process was really smooth and professional; from setting up the consultation, the walkthroughs, and the work itself. I honestly couldn't have asked for better. Got a new kitchen floor and full bathroom renovation installed in 5 days and perfectly within the schedule I needed to work too. Both rooms are a dream come true. The whole company was amazing and I was kept informed every step of the way.

The online designer is for our Palladio range, the premium end of what we fit. It does not cover the other door ranges on this page. Choose a style, try it in every colour, compare the glass patterns and set the handle, the letterplate and the knocker.
Opens the Palladio door designer in a new tab. Free to use, nothing to download, and no obligation.
A surveyor comes out free of charge, measures the opening and the sill, and brings colour, glass and hardware samples so you can choose at your own front door.
A free, no-obligation quote follows, showing the door style, colour, glass and locks you chose. Take as long as you like over it.
Most composite doors go in within a single working day. The old door and frame are removed, the new set is fitted, sealed and locked, and the waste leaves with the installers.
You are shown the locks, then given the keys, the installation certificate and care notes, and we check in with you a few weeks later. All workmanship is guaranteed.

Call 0800 029 3875Most land between £950 and £2,200 fitted, with the old door taken out, carted away and the certification included. Where yours sits inside that depends on the colour, the glass, the hardware and whether side panels go in beside it. The measure costs nothing and the quote ties you to nothing. Various deposit options are available.
There can be. Parts of the historic centre round the Cross and the Cowgate sit inside a conservation area, and East Dunbartonshire Council may have a view on how the frontage looks. Woodgrain finishes and the Heritage composite designs exist for exactly that reason, and the surveyor will give you the product details the council asks to see. It is worth a phone call to them before you place the order.
Yes. Lenzie grew up around the railway as a commuter village, and its villas carry wide openings, very often with a fanlight above and glazed panels either side. Nothing here is off the shelf, so the frame is built to the figures the surveyor writes down, and the fanlight and side panels can be renewed in the same visit if they have had their day.
It should make a real difference. The core is insulated the whole way through, where an old timber door is solid wood and a uPVC panel is hollow, and a composite door is six times more insulating than timber. Weather seals run round the frame and close the gaps that let the draught in under and around an ageing door.
Every door we fit is tested to PAS 24, the British standard for resisting forced entry. The locking throws hooks and bolts into the frame at several points, the cylinder is 3-star Kitemarked and anti-snap, and any glass in the door or its side panels is laminated rather than toughened.
Over two hundred colour and glass combinations in all. Anthracite grey, black, cream, chartwell green and duck egg blue go out most often, woodgrain finishes give the timber look without the upkeep, and the hall face can be a different colour from the street face. Handles, knockers and letterplates come in chrome, gold, matt black or antique.
Not much, and not for long. The installers lift out the old door and frame in the morning, set and seal the new frame, hang the door, fit the glass and the hardware, then run through the locking with you. It is one working day, and you are never left with an open doorway overnight.
Yes, and they come up constantly. On a cottage flat you are replacing your own door rather than a shared one, so the decision is yours alone. Where a factor or a housing association takes an interest in how the frontage looks, settle that first and we will supply whatever paperwork they want to see.
Yes. We offer Buy Now Pay 12 Months Later, flexible credit up to 24 months, and longer-term flexible credit up to 10 years.

Across the whole of G66: the town centre, Cowgate, Townhead, Hillhead, Harestanes, Oxgang, Langmuir, Westermains, Eastside, Broomhill, Rosebank, Merkland, Luggiebank and Woodilee, then Lenzie, Waterside, Auchinloch, Torrance, Milton of Campsie, Lennoxtown and Twechar. Bishopbriggs, Kilsyth and Moodiesburn are covered as well, with nothing added for the journey.
We do. All workmanship is guaranteed. Ring the freephone number any day of the week and we will arrange for a hinge, a seal or a lock to be looked at.
A surveyor can be at any address in the town on a day that suits, and trusted installers follow once the door has been built. Nothing is charged for the visit and nothing for the mileage, in Kirkintilloch or out towards the Campsies.
