Elevate Your Home’s First Impression: The New Korniche Aluminium Entrance Door

Your front door carries a heavy responsibility. It has to make a statement that reflects your personal style, welcome family and friends with an effortless touch, and act as an uncompromising fortress against the British weather and unwanted intruders. Too often, homeowners find themselves forced to compromise between striking architectural aesthetics and rock-solid performance.

Now, that compromise is a thing of the past.

At Custom Rooflights, we are proud to introduce the new Korniche Aluminium Entrance Door. Developed from Korniche’s award-winning aluminium engineering lineage—famous for their revolutionary bi-fold doors and roof lanterns—this custom-size entrance system brings precision-crafted luxury straight to the front of your home.

Designed Around Your Personal Style

A front door shouldn’t feel like an off-the-shelf afterthought. Because every property has its own distinct character, the Korniche entrance collection offers over 40 contemporary and classic panel designs. Whether you are aiming for clean, minimalist architectural lines for a modern self-build or a timeless, subtle aesthetic for a period renovation, there is a design tailored to match your vision.

The customisation goes far beyond the panel itself. You can tailor your entrance with a broad selection of glazing patterns, decorative trims, and hardware finishes. Choose between traditional lift-to-lock lever handles (available in finishes like black, white, anthracite grey, agate grey, polished chrome, and brushed stainless steel) or opt for a sleek, contemporary look using slam-shut multipoint locking paired with striking stainless steel bar handles in lengths up to 1,800mm.

If you want to create a grander architectural feature, the doors can be seamlessly combined with bespoke side lights and top lights, transforming a simple entryway into a light-filled facade. When it comes to colour, the options are virtually endless. Alongside popular standard stock finishes, over 150 bespoke RAL colours are available in matt, satin, gloss, or textured finishes—giving you the ultimate freedom to choose dual-colour options that match your interior hallway styling while complementing your exterior brickwork.

Engineering You Can Rely On

Beneath its breathtaking, refined appearance lies the rigorous engineering that defines the Korniche brand. Each door panel is constructed using robust aluminium outer skins encasing a thermally insulating RAVATHERM™ core and dual layers of MDF for maximum structural rigidity.

Home security is woven into every component. Independent testing and certification to PAS 24 standards guarantee that your home meets the highest benchmark for enhanced security. Combined with heavy-duty, high-duty 3-point hinges, a 3-star security cylinder (available with standard key operation or an internal thumbturn), and sophisticated multipoint locking mechanisms, you are granted complete peace of mind day and night.

Furthermore, comfort goes hand-in-hand with security. Featuring an advanced thermally broken profile and high-performance weathering seals, these doors achieve impressive thermal efficiency (with U-values starting from 1.4 W/m²K), keeping cold drafts out and expensive heat locked firmly inside your home.

Seamless Integration for Your Project

One of the greatest advantages of the Korniche system is how effortlessly it coordinates with other architectural elements. If your property features Korniche bi-fold doors, sliding doors, or flat glass rooflights, matching your entrance door creates a harmonious, unified aesthetic across your entire home exterior.

Built right here in the UK and tailored to your exact custom dimensions, these doors combine luxury design with effortless everyday operation. Ready to transform your home’s facade? Explore the full range and configure your bespoke entrance today here.

Absolutely. Every door is made to order to fit your exact specifications. You can choose from over 40 panel styles, standard stock shades, or select from over 150 bespoke RAL colours in matt, satin, gloss, or textured finishes. Dual-colour options are also available, allowing you to match your interior hallway decor with a different colour on the exterior facade.

Korniche entrance doors are built for exceptional thermal performance, achieving overall U-values from 1.4 W/m²K. The panels feature a high-performance RAVATHERM™ insulating core paired with thermally broken frame profiles and advanced weather seals to eliminate drafts and retain heat in your home.

Yes! The Korniche system offers complete flexibility to create larger architectural features. You can configure single doors with factory-matched top lights, side lights, or a combination of both. Side and top lights feature high-performance 40mm triple glazing to maximize natural light without sacrificing energy efficiency.

Choosing a front door isn't just about replacing a frame—it's an investment in your home’s security, energy efficiency, and overall curb appeal. Here is why the Korniche Entrance Door stands out: • Bespoke Precision Fit: Every door is custom manufactured to your exact opening dimensions, eliminating gaps, draft leaks, and awkward fitting issues common with standard-sized doors. • Uncompromising Security: Certified to strict PAS 24 standards, each unit comes equipped with high-security multipoint locks and a 3-star cylinder to give you total peace of mind. • Complete Design Freedom: With over 40 modern and classic panel styles, over 150 custom RAL colours (including dual-colour frame options), and matching hardware, you can design a door that perfectly matches your home's character. • Built to Last with Low Maintenance: Manufactured in the UK using marine-grade powder coating and high-grade aluminium, these doors won't warp, twist, or fade over time—requiring minimal upkeep to stay looking brand new.
