Ben Brocklesby, Director at Origin, the UK’s leading manufacturer of aluminium doors and windows, discusses the brand’s latest product launch.
Fresh off the heels of its Soho External Door launch, Origin introduces the Contemporary External Door which features a refined look and ultra-slim sightlines. Never one to rest on its laurels, Origin’s Contemporary External Door joins the Soho in its OB-36+ bi-fold, French or single door line-up. Underpinned by performance and quality, the Contemporary door revives the passion that originally drove people to love bi-folding doors.
Architecturally striking
With sightlines of just 36mm, the design benefits from less frame and more glazing to offer a sleek look and help maximise natural light internally. The addition of complementing modern hardware adds to its elegant silhouette.
Unmatched thermal efficiency
With homeowners prioritising performance as well as aesthetics, the new Contemporary exterior door has been designed to boast superior thermal efficiency. Exceeding the requirements of the 2025 Future Homes Standard a year early, the door achieves U-Values as low as 0.8 W/M2K. This means homeowners energy bills will be kept low which will serve as a unique selling point when speaking to potential clients.
Elite security and safety
Homeowners deserve to feel safe at home. The Contemporary Door delivers on this promise by featuring a robust, 8-point locking system and 3-star British Standard Kitemark locking barrel. The latter offers unparalleled security against forced entry, including picking, bumping, and drilling.
But security isn’t enough, safety is also critical. The new exterior door features finger-safe gaskets to prevent fingers from getting trapped when doors are opening and closing, making them the safest doors on the market.
Made bespoke
Origin’s full line-up of products is always made fully bespoke from the highest-grade aluminium at its UK factory. With over 150 RAL colours to choose from and endless combinations of size, configuration, colour, and hardware, there is a solution to match every property aesthetic.
