Key features of our Panel doors

Excellent Energy Efficiency
UPVC door panels are built with thermally efficient, high-density core materials that reduce heat loss, improve insulation, and help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round, lowering overall household energy consumption.

Enhanced Security Protection
Designed to work with multi-point locking systems and reinforced door frames, uPVC panels provide enhanced security, strong impact resistance, and dependable protection for front doors and main entrance points.

Cost-Effective Door Upgrade
Replacing only the door panel, rather than the entire frame, offers a practical, budget-friendly solution that improves appearance, performance, and security without the higher cost of a full door replacement.

Low Maintenance Durability
Manufactured from durable, weather-resistant materials, uPVC door panels resist warping, fading and corrosion, requiring minimal maintenance while maintaining their appearance and structural integrity for years.

Versatile Design Options
Available in a wide range of styles, colours and glazed designs, uPVC panels allow homeowners to customise entrance doors to complement both traditional and contemporary property aesthetics.

Suitable for Multiple Applications
Ideal for front doors, rear entrances and side access doors, uPVC panels provide a flexible solution for replacing damaged or outdated panels within existing door frames.

High-Performance Panel Doors for Every Home

Panel doors are a smart way to refresh and strengthen your entrance without replacing the entire frame. A uPVC door panel is the central section of a door leaf, manufactured using high-density core materials and durable outer skins for strength, insulation and durability. They are ideal for:

  • Replacing damaged or ageing panels
  • Improving energy efficiency in front doors
  • Upgrading to enhanced security doors
  • Modernising the appearance of entrance doors
  • Cost-effective improvements at competitive door prices

Built for Energy Efficiency
Our panelled doors are engineered with thermally efficient core materials that help reduce heat loss. Combined with well-fitted door frames and optional double-glazed units, they improve insulation and reduce energy bills.

For homeowners seeking better performance without investing in a new door system, upgrading the panel can deliver noticeable improvements in comfort and energy efficiency.

Choosing a new panel door is about achieving a finish that enhances your home’s entrance while maintaining security and performance. That’s why Secure Trade Frames offers a wide range of design and colour options across our uPVC door panels, composite door panels and aluminium door panels.

Our Process

We keep everything simple, structured and reassuring from first enquiry through to completion.

  • Step 1: Consultation & Measurement
    We start with a detailed discussion covering your needs for uPVC, composite, or aluminium panels. Our team inspects existing door frames, assesses locking systems, and takes precise measurements for a perfect fit.
  • Step 2: Panel Selection & Manufacturing
    Choose your panel based on energy efficiency, security, and style. It is then manufactured to exact specifications using high-quality core materials and durable finishes. We keep you updated on lead times.
  • Step 3: Installation & Security Integration
    Our specialists professionally install the door panel to ensure a secure fit. We integrate multi-point locking systems to enhance security and guarantee smooth operation.
  • Step 4: Final Testing & Aftercare
    We thoroughly test locking mechanisms, verify alignment, and confirm thermal sealing to ensure optimal performance. Our team remains available for post-installation support to ensure long-term reliability and customer satisfaction.

Understanding Your Options

At Secure Trade Frames, we supply and install three main types of door panels:

  • UPVC panels are known for being affordable, low-maintenance, and thermally efficient. They are available in solid or glazed designs, with decorative or high-security glass options.
  • Composite panels combine multiple core materials, often utilising GRP technology, delivering superior durability, insulation, and double-glazing options for both security and energy efficiency.
  • Aluminium panels offer sleek, modern finishes, slim sightlines, and excellent structural strength.

All panel types feature high-density cores and durable skins and are securely fitted into door frames equipped with multi-point locking systems, ensuring long-lasting performance, high energy efficiency, and enhanced home security.

Strength, Security & Style

High-Performance Panels with Enhanced Security

At Secure Trade Frames, every door panel is designed for strength, durability, and security. Our panels feature carefully selected high-density core materials that deliver excellent structural integrity and improved thermal efficiency. These cores are enclosed within robust outer skins, ensuring long-lasting performance without compromising style.

To maximise security, panels are paired with compatible door frames and fitted with multi-point locking systems. Every lock is thoroughly tested during installation to guarantee reliable operation and peace of mind.

For added light and design flexibility, we offer glazed panels with clear, frosted, or decorative patterned glass, including high-security and energy-efficient double glazing options. Side panels are also available to complement your entrance doors, creating a cohesive look that enhances your home’s façade. With a combination of strength, safety, and style, our panel doors deliver both practical performance and visual appeal.

We've used Secure Trade previously for our windows and were very happy with the price and quality of work. We recently had quotes for a new front door and porch doors, Jason talked us through the options for replacing both sets of doors and in the end we went with Jason's recommendation to remove the porch doors completely and replace just the front door. The fitters were professional and have done a great job, we're well pleased with the result.

Really good experience from start to finish. Survey and quotation completed quickly. Great communication on design and advice around what style, fittings and doors would work for us.

Everyone we met was punctual, polite and took time to explain the process and answer questions.

The fitters were top notch. They worked with us to get things done properly, allowing us time to think and plan around other tasks.

They took a lot of pride in getting things just so and the banter was genuine and funny especially whem they were cleaning up.
Which they did each day and made sure we were always left secure and safe.

When there were issues they took responsibility for getting it sorted. No need for us to chase or complain. A unit damaged in transit was replaced within 4 days.

Great from start to finish - thankyou Jason, Rob and Eric.

We recently had new windows fitted by Secure Trade Frames. I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the service was professional, reliable, and stress-free. Jason and Denise’s responded promptly to all my queries, Rob was punctual, tidy, and clearly takes great pride in his work.

The windows are of excellent quality and the installation was completed to a very high standard. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and Rob took the time to make sure we were completely satisfied before leaving.

I would highly recommend Leicester Secure Trade Frames to anyone looking for new windows – fantastic workmanship and great value for money. Thank you again!

We had a new front door fitted and super happy with it. We’d been debating a new door for a while as the original one on our new build (10 years ago) has always been drafty. So Jason came over, measured up, got a quote, wasn’t pushy. WE LOVE IT. Chap that fitted it was great, so conscientious and did a fab job. Would def have these over to fit windows too. Thanks 🙂

We recently had all of our old box sash single-glazed windows removed and replaced with uPVC double glazing, along with having our back door replaced. From start to finish, the whole process was smooth and well organised.
The fitters arrived on time, were polite and professional throughout, and clearly took pride in their work. They worked efficiently and made sure everything was fitted properly, and they also kept disruption to a minimum. Once the job was finished, they left the house clean and tidy, which we really appreciated.
We’re extremely pleased with the quality of the windows and door and have already noticed the difference they’ve made. Overall, it was a great experience and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Secure Trade Frames to anyone considering new windows or doors.

We had STF to replace most of windows and doors. It was a very professional service and the quality of the products were excellent. The workmanship was great and they took away the windows they took out. They cleaned up after themselves and were respectful and polite. Out of 3 quotes they came in the most competitive for a premium product.
We will definitely use them again for our bifolds when we renovate our kitchen.

We had a fantastic experience with Secure Trade Frames from start to finish. By far the cheapest of the four quotes we had and by far the best attention to detail, personal attention and service. We had a replacement front door and window, replacement back door and replacement French doors. The finish is excellent and we couldn’t be more pleased.

I required urgent attention to the locking mechanism on my front door and contacted Secure Trade Frames online. They were very quick to get back in touch and an appointment was made with a clear estimate of what the costs would likely to be, based on a couple of options regarding potential faults. I had to change the agreed time at short notice but they re jigged their arrival to fit in with my availability. On arrival the work was completed efficiently and in a cheerful manner. Payment went just as well via card across the phone. In short from the initial contact to final payment the process was smooth and trouble free - would certainly use again and recommend - Steve Plant
