Entrance Doors for Homes in Ireland
An entrance door is an external doorset used at the front, back or side of a home, or as the outer door of an enclosed porch. It must operate reliably, close securely and resist exposure to Irish weather.
- Main front entrances
- Back and side entrances
- Enclosed porches
- New builds, extensions and renovations
- Standard and non-standard openings
Every entrance is professionally measured before ordering. We assess the complete opening, including the frame, threshold, opening direction and surrounding glazing.
Popular Entrance Door Options
The best system depends on the entrance location, exposure, dimensions, appearance, security needs and budget.
Compare popular composite, uPVC, aluminium and glazed doors below. We also offer timber, steel, alu-clad, pivot and compatible smart-access options.

Choosing the Right Entrance Door
Consider the complete doorset rather than the door panel alone. The frame, threshold, glass, hardware and installation all influence performance.
1. Entrance Location
Decide whether the door serves a front, back, side or porch entrance and how frequently it will be used.
- Front, back, side or porch location
- Opening direction and daily use
- Exposure to wind and rain
2. Material and Appearance
Compare uPVC, composite, aluminium, timber, steel and alu-clad options based on style, maintenance and exposure.
- uPVC for practical value
- Composite for substantial styling
- Aluminium for contemporary entrances
- Timber, steel and alu-clad for specialist designs
3. Glass, Privacy and Daylight
Choose clear, decorative or obscured glass according to the amount of daylight and privacy required.
4. Security and Access
Review the frame, locking points, cylinder, hinges, glass and any smart-access features as one complete specification.
- Multi-point locking options
- Appropriate lock cylinder and hinges
- Compatible manual override for smart access
5. Size, Frame and Threshold
Professional measurement must account for the opening, finished floor levels, clearance, sidelights and any non-standard dimensions.
Entrance Door Prices in Ireland
Entrance-door prices depend on material, size, glass, hardware, surrounding panels and installation conditions. Because every opening is different, we provide a tailored supply-and-fit quotation rather than a fixed price list.
Door Material
uPVC, composite, aluminium, timber and specialist systems vary in price and performance.
Size & Design
Non-standard openings, pivot doors and feature entrances require a bespoke specification.
Glass & Side Panels
Decorative glass, privacy glazing, sidelights and top lights affect the complete doorset price.
Frame & Installation
Removing an unsuitable frame or preparing the threshold changes the work required.
Hardware & Access
Locks, handles, cylinders and compatible smart-access features influence the quotation.
Non-standard sizes, sidelights, overhead glazing, upgraded hardware, low thresholds and repairs around the opening can affect the final entrance door cost. Request a survey for an accurate figure.
Entrance Door Replacement and Frame Assessment
A door may sometimes be replaced without changing the frame, but the existing frame must be structurally sound, correctly aligned and compatible with the new door.
- Frame and surrounding opening
- Door height and width
- Threshold and finished floor levels
- Opening direction and clearance
- Existing sidelights or top lights
- External exposure and drainage
If the frame is damaged, distorted or poorly sealed, replacing the complete doorset will usually provide a more dependable result.
We also assess existing sidelights, top lights, drainage, exposure and the internal and external finishing required around the opening.
