How much sun will a door in Saltash get?
Because Saltash sees long summer days (about 16 h 26 min) and short winter ones (about 8 h 00 min), the elevation your door faces makes a real difference. With the midday sun at about 16° in winter, a south-facing door brings light well into the room; a west-facing door catches hot late-afternoon sun in summer.
What happens after you enquire
In Saltash the process is simple: guide price, free survey, written quote, manufacture and fitting, with the compliance certificate sent to you. Nothing is ordered until you confirm the surveyed specification in writing.
Approvals in England
English Building Regulations treat a new or replacement external door in an existing home as a controlled fitting: it needs a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or better (or Doorset Energy Rating band C) if more than 60% of it is glazed (Approved Document L), and safety glass in a critical location (Approved Document K). Compliance is arranged through a competent person scheme installer or a Building Control notification, so you get a certificate for your records.
