The Hardest-Working Door in the House, Made Warm, Secure and Effortless
Emplas uPVC back doors on the British-made Profile 22 Optima frame, fitted by our Newmarket team. A-rated glass units and 3-Star Kitemark security as standard — because the back door deserves front door protection — all covered by our 10-year guarantee.
In and Out a Hundred Times a Day
Nobody photographs their back door, but everybody uses it — the school run, the dog, the washing line, the barbecue. It's the door that gets opened a hundred times a day, which is exactly why a draughty, sticking or flimsy one makes itself felt so quickly. Replacing it is one of the most satisfying, best-value improvements we fit from our Newmarket base, in homes across Kesgrave, Ipswich, Woodbridge, Felixstowe and throughout Suffolk and Essex.
We install uPVC back doors manufactured in Britain by Emplas on the multi-chamber Profile 22 Optima frame, with A-rated glass units as standard. And because the back of the house is where an intruder would rather try, every door comes with the same protection as our front doors: a multi-point locking mechanism and a 3-Star British Kitemark TS007 cylinder — anti-drill, anti-snap and anti-pick. Half-glazed, fully glazed or solid, in a wide choice of finishes, all fitted by our own installation team — never subcontractors.
Every installation starts with a free, no-obligation survey, is protected by our 10-year guarantee, and is FENSA-certified for building regulations compliance.
Choose Your Style
Every Emplas back door is built on the same Profile 22 Optima frame — the choice is in the glazing and the profile finish. The simple version: glazed layouts bring garden light into the kitchen; chamfered edges look crisp and modern, sculptured curves suit traditional homes. Our consultants will bring both to your survey.
Optima Chamfered
Clean, contemporary lines that suit most homes — and the practical favourite for kitchens and utility rooms. Choose a half-glazed layout for light with privacy below worktop height, or a fully glazed door for the best view of the garden.

What Our Back Door Customers Say
Reviews related to our uPVC back doors
Our old back door stuck every winter — the new one closes with a satisfying click and the kitchen is noticeably warmer. Brilliant job.
Dave sorted us out with a fully glazed back door and even had the cat flap built in at the factory. Superb service and spot-on lead times.
Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Great advice on the obscure glass options, and the installers were polite and spotless.
Cannot recommend Micron enough. The fitters were tidy and their attention to detail on the finishing trims around our new door is exceptional.
