    Who by themselves or the geezer from the apprentice? :rotfl:

    You can often buy one style, design from a company its fine another its terrible? Choose a style, design etc then research it > I have seen many of there exact style, design and manufacture of doors? at much cheaper prices likes of flea bay
  • I looked at many doors to replace our front door.

    Looked at Solidor, Rockdoor, Apeer and god knows what else.

    In the end I went with Solidor.

    I think the reseller and installer is key, having the right people.

    There are no complains, perfectly happy, the only over sight of mine is that I wished it had been a smooth finish. Instead I went for a wood grain.

    Had mine installed in August 2013.

    These are the prices for the Apeer quotes I got;

    70mm Apeer – Black Door – White Frame with White Window in and out – Total Price - £1487.48
    44mm Apeer – Spec same as above – Total Price - £1324.28

    70mm Apeer – Black Door – Black Frame with Black Window in and out – Total Price - £1721.51
    44mm Apeer – Spec same as above – Total Price - £1538.42

    70mm Apeer – Black Door – White Frame with Black Sash Window in White Frame – Total Price - £1538.65
    44mm Apeer – Same spec as above – Total Price - £1375.45

    This is the final price I paid for the Solidor,

    The price including VAT and fitting was £1452.10 for the Black Ludlow Door and frame with side window and brushed chrome furniture.

    Hope this helps.

    Many thanks,

    i was initially looking at Rockdoor (I think for the name) but put off by prices of £1600+ with the extras we wanted like slamlock etc. We used a company in Essex (doorstooressex) and he recommended DoorStop doors, said they were on a par with all other composite doors and our front door came in at £1000 fitted, with slamlock and all the furniture. Highly recommend DoorStop doors, and on the website I used you can design and customise your own door to get the exact price it will cost
  • We got quotes at follows for various doors:
    Rockdoor- was around £1650
    Doorstop- was around £1100
    Solidor- £1360

    I got a quote via solidors recommended local fitter on their website- this came out at £1850!

    I thought for the sake of an extra £250 it was worth getting a solidor over the door stop.
