Unlike genuine wooden front doors, Palladio doors require no painting, and are much stronger!

Palladio doors - Different inside to out!
Palladio doors come in Anthracite Grey, Bog Oak, Red, Burgundy, Blue or Green, ideal colours for a Northerly elevation, or choose from Light Oak, Agate Grey, Chartwell Green, White, Silver Grey or Cream if your home faces any direction, especially for Southerly directions. For front doors to perform well, do consider the fitted elevation direction – A door that soaks up the sun is better in a light colour while a northerly facing door which sees little sun performs perfectly in any colour. With Palladio doors you can even choose a different finish inside to out.
Palladio doors - You’ve got next to nothing to do!
Palladio doors are not painted, they have a renolit foil finish, overtime the colour will hardly fade so you never have to worry about re-painting. Also, if the same renolit foil finish is selected for the outer door frame as the door, it will match perfectly, so you can have an identical door and frame if desired. Clean using a non-abrasive soft sponge and warm soapy water. Dry using a soft lint-free cloth. Palladio recommend Mr. Sheen multi-surface spray for added sheen. For glass use any traditional glass cleaner. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, bleach, or solvents. Lubricating your Palladio Doors: Place a dust sheet under to protect flooring, apply 3 in 1 oil or silicone spray to the lever handle, cylinder and multi-point locking system and hinges. Add a small amount of Vaseline to the hooks, deadbolts, and rollers. Lift the handle up and down 6-8 times, or for doors without a handle wind the key multiple times. Repeat twice a year for perfect lubrication.
Palladio doors - Get a handle to handle
Originally front doors came with classic handles where you were required to hold the handle down and push to open the door. With today Palladio doors you can choose levers, knobs and pull handles. Knobs look great in period properties and modern self builds or newbuilds, they are also an excellent way to make certain a toddler or young child cannot open the door. The lever or a pull handle might be a better choice if gripping a doorknob is more difficult for you to grasp and turn. Lever handles are especially handy when your hands are full, returning home with bags of shopping and haven’t got a finger to spare. You could access your home using your elbow to press on the lever. Pull handles are simply stunning on a new front door. The Palladio Doors Collection has an inspiring array of door accessories to choose from.
