GLAZED DOOR OPTIONS
Choosing the Right Glass for Your Front Door
The amount, position and style of glass can completely change how a front door looks and how much light it brings into the home. From smaller decorative panes to larger glazed sections and front doors with side panels, the right design should work with the property while giving you the balance of light and privacy you are comfortable with.
Choose from narrow glass panels, half-glazed doors, larger feature panes or designs with several smaller glazed sections. Glazed front doors are available in both modern and traditional styles, so the glass can feel like part of the design rather than an afterthought.
Frosted, patterned and obscured glass can bring natural light into the hallway while limiting the view into your home. Decorative and stained-glass-inspired options can add more character, while simpler finishes create a cleaner, more contemporary look.
Side panels can transform a darker entrance by bringing light around the door as well as through it. They can be glazed, partly glazed or designed to match the door, with single and double side-panel options available depending on the size and layout of the opening.
SECURITY AND ENERGY PERFORMANCE
Glazed Front Doors Built for Warmth and Security
Choosing more glass does not mean accepting a colder or less secure entrance. Our glazed front doors and front doors with side panels combine high-performance glazing, insulated construction and tested security, so you can bring more light into your home without compromising on warmth or protection.
Selected glazed doorsets can achieve energy ratings up to A++, with low U-values designed to reduce heat loss through the door and glass. Double glazing - and triple-glazed options, insulated door cores and effective weather seals all help create a warmer, less draughty entrance.
Our glazed front doors are available with high-performance locking cylinders and multipoint locking systems. Our doorsets meet PAS 24 security standards and can be specified to meet Secured by Design, giving you independent reassurance that the complete door has been tested against recognised methods of forced entry.
Our glazed composite doors use reinforced frames to add strength around the complete doorset, including doors designed with larger glazed sections or side panels. Rockdoor also builds the glass into the door as part of the complete unit, helping prevent the glazing from becoming a weak point in the entrance.

PREMIUM GLAZED COMPOSITE DOORS
Bring in More Light With a Glazed Rockdoor
Rockdoor is our premium composite door range, with glazed front door designs to suit both modern and traditional homes. Choose from slim glazed panels, larger decorative glass options and doors that can be paired with matching side panels to create a brighter, more welcoming entrance.
The glazing is built securely into the door as part of the complete structure, supported by a reinforced inner frame that Rockdoor states is 60% stronger than a standard composite door. Combined with a high-density core, multipoint locking and high-performance cylinders, this allows you to bring more light into your home without compromising on strength, warmth or security.
As a Rockdoor Trusted Installer, Doorquay can help you choose the right door, glass and side-panel configuration before measuring and fitting everything properly.

Greg, Broughty Ferry
I dont know where to start. What a service I got when ordering my new front door. Lorraine was so nice it was like talking with your best pal not an agent providing door's.
The door was delivered and fitted within 4 weeks which was great as our old door was useless.
Lynne, Dundee
What can I say, an absolutely brilliant service from Lorraine from start to finish, and an expert finish by Kenny and his team. We went for Rockdoors front and back, and on the day of installation there was no mess, no hassle and just x2 solid, secure and well fitting doors.

Arlene, St. Andrews
Amazing service from Lorraine and the team, from initial chat to installation. Every step of the way, the customer service was first class, and exceeded all expectations. Kenny and Paul were amazing with the fitting, so delighted with the end result and the finish is perfect!

Tracy, Dundee
So happy with my new door. First class. The standard of workmanship from the team was to the highest standards. So good that I’ll be in touch soon to get my windows replaced.
Highly recommend Doorquay doors.
Gary, Cupar
Excellent people to deal with. Lorraine is really friendly and a joy to converse with. Lovely discussion at design stage with pro/cons gone over to get the best choice. Always kept in the loop about progress of each stage, even coming over on fitting day to check on things.
