Choice for 1,000 homes
11th April 2017

MASTERDOR, a subsidiary of the Synseal Group, has been chosen by Avant Homes to supply its Craftsman range of solid, engineered timber doors for more than 1,000 newly built homes.

The team at Avant Homes chose a handful of doors from the 27 styles available and handpicked a few of the 21 colours to offer their customers choice while ensuring homes remain in keeping with planning regulations and the aesthetics that Avant Homes requires.

The eight door styles pre-selected by Avant Homes include the Foxley door with horizontal tongue and groove pattern and long single glazed panel, and a cottage style Rockingham door with vertical tongue and groove etching and porthole window.

Martin Sanwell, Group Procurement Director at Avant Homes, said: “We introduced the Masterdor Craftsman range of front doors as part of the all-inclusive specification to our mainstream range, during our product development programme in 2016.

“As a business we are constantly striving to further enhance our product design and specification to the benefit of homebuyers and we have been very impressed with Synseal’s product and service.”

Bruce Manning, New Build Business Development Manager at Synseal Group, added: “Avant Homes approached us because they needed a supplier who could respond with consistent, excellent quality to a high order demand of 54mm doors, which are thicker than most engineered timber doors on the market but are very popular for new build and social housing projects as they are thermally superior and more secure than standard 44mm doors.

“The Craftsman is a truly unique door, built with a Kerto Q core, tricoya facings and sapele lipping which combined offer excellent weather protection and solidity – plus every door is triple rebated which also improves sound insulation. You’ll struggle to find a stronger, more weatherproof timber door on the market.”
