Daylight across Merseyside
Because Merseyside sees long summer days (about 17 h 01 min) and short winter ones (about 7 h 29 min), the elevation your door faces makes a real difference. With the midday sun at about 13° in winter, a south-facing door brings light well into the room; a west-facing door catches hot late-afternoon sun in summer.
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.
A new or wider opening in England needs Building Control approval for the structural work as well as compliance for the door itself under Approved Documents L and K. Expect structural calculations, a steel beam and, where a party wall is involved, notices under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996.
