Can you get a good security door for £199?
Can Security door be cheaper then a regular door?
The simple and straightforward answer is NO
It is highly unlikely you can get a good quality, professionally installed security door for only £199. Security doors are significantly more expensive than regular doors due to the specialized materials, construction techniques, and security features required.
Claims of “£199 security doors” are likely marketing gimmicks using very low-quality, insecure products or exclude the true installed cost.
Reputable security door companies would price professional installations starting from around £1,500 or more, depending on the specifications. The enhanced security and peace of mind is worth the investment, but cheaply priced security doors should be viewed skeptically.

HOW PRICING WORKS
We use individual pricing model
At Fort Premium Security Doors, we understand that every home and business has unique security needs and aesthetic preferences. That’s why we don’t have a one-size-fits-all pricing model. Instead, the cost of your security door is determined by several key factors, making each project and its pricing truly individual.

We pride ourselves on transparency and will work with you to understand your budget and security requirements, ensuring you get the best value for your investment. Our goal is to offer you a high-security door that meets your exact needs without any hidden costs or surprises.
Security Level
The level of security you choose is a major factor. Options range from standard secure designs to advanced features like bulletproof windows. Higher security levels involve more complex manufacturing processes and materials, which are reflected in the price.
Door Type and Style
The specific type of door you need (e.g., front door, back door, internal door) and the style you choose (modern, traditional, etc.) also affect the cost. Customisation options such as colours, finishes, and hardware can further influence the price, allowing you to match the door perfectly to your property’s look and feel.

SECURITY LEVEL
The security level of your bespoke door is a critical factor that significantly influences its price. At Fort Premium Security Doors, we offer a spectrum of security options to cater to various needs and preferences, from standard security features to advanced protection like bulletproof capabilities. Here’s how the security level impacts the pricing
Standard Security
Doors designed to meet basic security requirements, incorporating standard locking mechanisms and durable materials. These are more cost-effective but provide a solid level of protection suitable for many homes.
Enhanced Security
This level includes additional security features such as multi-point locking systems and reinforced frames, offering a higher degree of protection against forced entry. The use of more sophisticated technology and materials at this level results in a moderate increase in price.
Maximum Security
For those requiring the utmost in security, including features like bulletproof windows and advanced locking mechanisms. These doors are designed to withstand high-impact forces and provide the highest level of security. The complex manufacturing process and premium materials used in these doors reflect a higher price point.
The choice of security level depends on your specific needs, the location of your property, and your peace of mind. Each increase in security level involves additional features, technology, and materials, which are factored into the cost of your bespoke door. Our team is dedicated to advising you on the most appropriate security level for your needs, ensuring you invest in the right balance of safety and value.
Door Type
The type of door you select is another significant factor that influences the overall cost of your bespoke security door. At Fort Premium Security Doors, we understand that every property has its unique requirements and aesthetic preferences. Here’s how the type of door affects pricing:
Front Doors
Often the primary entry point and a focal element of a property’s facade, front doors require a balance between high security, durability, and visual appeal. The need for robust security features combined with aesthetic customisations can influence the price upwards.
Back and Side Doors
While these doors might not be as visible as front doors, they are equally important in ensuring the security of your property. The cost can vary based on the security features and materials selected, with a focus on functionality and security over aesthetic detail.
Internal Security Doors
Used to secure specific areas within a property, internal security doors can vary in price depending on the level of security desired and the door’s style and finish. These doors may be simpler in design but still incorporate essential security features.
Specialised Doors
This category includes doors with specific functions, such as fire-rated doors, soundproof doors, or bulletproof doors. The additional technology and materials required for these specialised functions significantly impact the price, reflecting the door’s enhanced capabilities.
The choice of door type is influenced by the intended use, location within the property, and specific security concerns. Each door type incorporates different materials, design complexities, and security features, all of which are carefully considered in the pricing. Our team works closely with you to select the most appropriate door type for your needs, ensuring a perfect blend of security, functionality, and aesthetics.
DOOR STYLE
The style of your bespoke security door plays a crucial role in determining its cost. At Fort Premium Security Doors, we offer a wide array of styles to ensure your door not only provides the highest level of security but also complements the aesthetic of your property. Here’s how different styles can affect the pricing:
Single Doors
The most common choice for many properties, single doors can be designed in a variety of styles, from classic to contemporary. The cost is influenced by the design complexity, materials used, and security features incorporated.
Double Doors
Offering a grander entrance, double doors require more materials and often more intricate design and manufacturing processes. The larger size and additional security features necessary for maintaining structural integrity can increase the price compared to single doors.
Doors with Side Panels
Adding side panels to a door not only enhances its appearance but also allows more natural light into the property. The inclusion of side panels involves additional materials and craftsmanship, impacting the overall cost. Security features must also be integrated into the side panels, ensuring they provide the same level of protection as the door itself.
Doors with Transoms
Doors featuring transoms (horizontal structural elements above the door) add a decorative touch and can improve natural lighting. Similar to side panels, transoms require extra materials and design considerations, which can influence the door’s final price. Ensuring the transom complements the door’s security level while maintaining aesthetic appeal requires precise engineering and design.
The style of the door, whether it’s a single, double, with side panels, or featuring a transom, significantly impacts the pricing due to the variations in materials, design, and manufacturing processes involved. Each style option offers its own set of benefits, from enhancing your home’s curb appeal to improving functionality and natural lighting. Our experts will guide you through the selection process, helping you choose a door style that meets your security needs, fits your aesthetic preferences, and aligns with your budget.
Bespoke Replication
Bespoke replication involves creating a security door that closely matches an existing design, whether it’s to preserve the architectural integrity of a historic building or to replicate a specific aesthetic. This process is intricate and requires a high level of craftsmanship and precision, which significantly influences the overall cost. Here’s how bespoke replication affects pricing:
Materials and Finishes: Replicating a door often involves using specialised materials and finishes to achieve an authentic look. The cost can vary significantly based on the rarity or quality of the materials required and the complexity of the finishing processes.
Security Integration: Incorporating modern security features into a replicated design without compromising its historical or aesthetic accuracy is a challenging task. Advanced locking mechanisms, reinforced structures, and potentially bulletproof or enhanced glazing must be seamlessly integrated, which can add to the cost.
Craftsmanship and Labour: Bespoke replication demands a high level of craftsmanship. Skilled artisans who can replicate historical designs while adhering to contemporary security standards are essential. The labour-intensive nature of this work, requiring attention to detail and precision, is a key factor in the pricing.
Bespoke replication is a specialised service that caters to clients looking to maintain or recreate a specific aesthetic without sacrificing security. The cost reflects the meticulous process of design, material selection, and craftsmanship required to achieve a seamless blend of beauty and protection. Our team is committed to working closely with you to understand your vision and provide a replica security door that meets your exact specifications, ensuring the perfect balance between historical fidelity and modern security.
