Welcome to Door Thresholds!

UPVC stands for Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride, it is a strong and low-maintenance yet lightweight plastic building material. UPVC thresholds are part of the UPVC door frame. These can often become cracked, broken or damaged after years of use. The primary benefit of UPVC door thresholds is their ability to create a weather-resistant seal, preventing rain, wind, and drafts from entering indoor spaces. UPVC door thresholds are easily replaced and can be cut to size, although UPVC doors themselves are quite cheap to replace. The purpose of the threshold is to close the gap between the bottom of the door and the floor, preventing different floor materials. Thresholds are used to seal the opening under the door and with weatherstripping, preventing wind, rain and snow from entering. UPVC door thresholds are highly resistant to moisture, making them suitable for outdoor use. They effectively prevent water infiltration and provide a weather-tight seal.
A PVC threshold means you will have a four-sided door frame with a frame underneath, when your door is open you will have about a 68mm frame to step on. It provides the tightest and most thermally efficient weather seal because the door sits behind the frame on all four sides. UPVC is a type of plastic used in a variety of applications, from plumbing to window frames. It is made from PVC resin, which is mixed with other chemicals to form a strong and durable material. UPVC windows are constructed with the highest precision to keep out water during the rain, storms and even cyclones and have been used many times in marine applications, where their quality is heavily tested. They are far more waterproof than other types of windows as they don't absorb moisture.
