Simple steps to buying your new doors 3 January 2025

Make first impressions count with the perfect front door for your home – choose the best one with our advice.

If you’re looking to give your home a makeover, buying new external doors gives you an exciting opportunity to create a first impression that shows off your style.

Johnson's guide will give you all the advice you need to choose the right door for you.

 

Choose the type that suits you.

External doors can be made from many different materials and it is important to understand these differences so you can make the best choice for your home.

 

Timber
Our wood front doors are available in a range of different styles and colours, from classic to contemporary.

All of our timber is sustainably sourced, so it’s great for your home and the environment.

 

White oak veneer

Our real wood, white oak veneer front doors are modern in style and engineered to last. These come ready to stain, so you can add your finishing touch.

 

Selecting your style

You could choose anything from classic glazed or country cottage styles to ultra-modern, contemporary designs. Explore our range online, which has been developed with your needs in mind. With a high-quality, value-for-money selection, you’ll be getting peace of mind with your purchase.

 

Getting the perfect fit

Once you have decided on your type of door, you will need to take accurate measurements to make sure that your door will fit correctly into your frame.

 

To get the width

Start by measuring the top, middle and bottom of the frame where your door will go. Then take the smallest of the three measurements and take away 10mm, this is how wide your new doors should be.

 

To get the height

Again, measure in three points (to the left, centre and right, this time) and as above, deduct 10mm from the smallest measurement, this is how tall your new doors should be. Don’t forget to measure the underside of the existing door sill unless this won't have to be replaced (if it's a concrete sill, for example).
