Steel Doors in Kensington
Bespoke steel entrance doors for Kensington homes
Kensington in W8 is one of Prime Central London's most valuable residential districts, defined by white stucco-fronted Victorian and Edwardian townhouses with columned porticos along Victoria Road, Cottesmore Gardens, Phillimore Gardens and Palace Gardens Terrace. Kensington Palace Gardens, the embassy-lined private avenue often called Billionaires' Row, sits at the heart of the Royal Borough alongside Kensington Square, one of the oldest garden squares in London laid out in the 1680s. The Phillimore Estate, Edwardes Square and the streets off Kensington High Street add Grade II listed stucco terraces and red-brick mansion blocks, all governed by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, which operates one of the strictest conservation regimes in the UK. SteelR bespoke steel entrance doors honour Kensington's classical proportions with traditional six-panel designs in painted RAL colours, lion-head knockers and polished brass ironmongery for conservation frontages, and large-format configurations with sidelights for the double-fronted stucco houses. Every door is BS EN 1627:2011 RC4 single leaf, unglazed certified as Standard, with LPS 1175 SR3 (LPCB Enhanced upgrade), SR4 (Commercial-grade upgrade) and LPS 1673 (Ultra-high, by enquiry) available. Listed building consent handled in-house. W8 surveyed from our Ickenham workshop.
