Discover The Latest Trend in Stable Doors

The stable door is an icon of British home design. Just picturing one instantly brings to mind a sense of rustic simplicity, letting in a summer breeze while keeping the dog or toddler safely inside. It’s a design rooted in history, but for too long, achieving that look meant putting up with the hassle of old, draughty timber.

Well, times have changed.

The latest and greatest trend in home entrances isn’t about replacing that functionality; it’s about perfecting it. Homeowners across Yorkshire are discovering how today’s premium uPVC Stable Doors are delivering the classic split-door aesthetic with all the zero-maintenance, high-security benefits of modern engineering.

This isn’t the brittle, yellowish uPVC of decades past. This is a robust, thermally-efficient material that has been refined to be the undisputed champion of performance. If you want the character of a country home without the chore list, here’s why the uPVC stable door is the perfect solution.

The secret to a warmer, more efficient home: uPVC stable doors

The primary driver behind the uPVC stable door surge is simple: efficiency. In a world focused on keeping energy bills down, a gorgeous door that leaks heat just won’t cut it.

Modern uPVC is an exceptionally good insulator, and when paired with the high-quality, thermally-broken frames used by experts like Coral Windows, it ensures your home stays warmer for longer.

Imagine an old wooden door on a chilly morning. Chances are, you’d feel a subtle draught. A new uPVC stable door, however, is sealed with precision-engineered gaskets and multi-chambered profiles. When the top and bottom sections are securely closed and locked, they form a near-perfect barrier, offering outstanding weather resistance and thermal performance. This trend is driven by savvy homeowners who want heritage style and an A+ energy rating.

The perfect mix of security and ventilation

What makes a stable door unique is its split functionality and modern uPVC has only enhanced this practicality.

  • Safe space, while letting the breeze in. The ability to open the top leaf while keeping the bottom firmly shut is invaluable. It’s perfect for ventilating the kitchen after cooking, letting light stream in, or just listening to the birds, all while knowing pets and children are safe inside.
  • Uncompromising security. The trend towards highly secure doors has been fully adopted by the uPVC stable door. They come fitted with robust multi-point locking systems on both the top and bottom sections. When locked together, they operate with the strength and security of a solid, single entrance door. They are designed to stand up to the elements and unwelcome intruders, giving you total peace of mind.

Style without the struggle

The final, compelling trend is the sheer level of customisation now available. Historically, if you wanted a stable door, you had a few shades of timber to choose from and a weekend of sanding and painting every few years.

Today’s uPVC technology delivers incredible finishes that mimic the beautiful look of timber without the headaches. You can choose from an extensive palette, including authentic woodgrain effects or popular, trend-setting colours like deep blues, sophisticated greys, or elegant greens. Because the colour is bonded to the uPVC, it won’t flake, fade, or peel, meaning your door stays looking pristine year after year with nothing more than a quick wipe.

The modern stable door is about making a stylish statement that lasts. By choosing a high-quality uPVC door from a trusted Yorkshire manufacturer, you get that charming, traditional look, exceptional security, and thermal efficiency all rolled into one effortlessly beautiful package.

Demonstrating dedication and skill, he quickly advanced to lead his own team, focusing on aluminium and timber installations, as well as sealed unit replacements—a period when UPVC was still emerging in the U.K. In 1980, Steve briefly shifted to manufacturing sealed units but returned to his passion for window and door fitting in 1981. Over the next 13 years, he honed his expertise, adapting seamlessly as UPVC became the industry standard.​ Steve joined Coral Windows in 1994, expanding his repertoire to include conservatory installations alongside windows and doors. In 2005, Steve joined a fabrication facility in Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, where he dedicated 15 months, training local workers who were accustomed to aluminium on the nuances of UPVC window and door installations.​ Upon returning to the UK in 2006, Steve returned to Coral windows and assumed the role of Conservatory Manager, a position he held for six years before being promoted to Head of Installations in 2012. In 2015, after recovering from a stroke, Steve resumed his role as Conservatory Manager, a testament to his resilience and commitment to the company.​ Steve has a passion for music, mainly creating new songs via various apps, he has had 5 songs played on the radio in the U.K. Reflecting on his 47-year career, Steve remarks on the swift passage of time and the continuous advancements in the glazing industry, emphasising that every day remains an opportunity for learning.
