Why choose a wooden front door?
A historic material in carpentry, wood retains an unmatched charm while meeting current requirements for security, durability, and energy efficiency.
A natural and elegant touch
Wood immediately brings warmth and character to your facade. Whether it is oak, meranti, northern red pine, or exotic species, each wooden door is unique, with grain patterns, shades, and textures that give a true signature to your entrance.
High thermal and acoustic insulation
Wood is an excellent natural insulator. It offers very high thermal performance, helping to reduce heat loss and enhance the soundproofing of your entrance. In winter and summer, your indoor comfort is optimized.
Unmatched robustness
A well-treated wooden front door withstands Belgian weather conditions very well: humidity, frost, winds, temperature variations. With proper maintenance, it offers a remarkable lifespan, often exceeding 30 years.

It offers maximum protection against cold and attempted break-ins. Perfectly suited for traditional homes or exposed areas, it guarantees privacy and sturdiness.
It incorporates one or more glazed surfaces while maintaining a wooden structure. This allows natural light to enter without compromising security through the use of laminated or decorative glazing.
Very trendy in modern homes, this model combines wood and safety glazing, for a contemporary and bright look, while ensuring a high level of protection.
We also create fully custom wooden doors, suitable for character homes, old buildings, or special configurations (arched entrance, asymmetrical, etc.).

FAQ – Wooden entrance door in an energy renovation project
Is the installation of a wooden entrance door eligible for an energy grant in Belgium?
Yes, if it contributes to improving the thermal performance of the building, the installation of a wooden entrance door may be eligible for certain regional grants, as part of a comprehensive energy renovation project. For this, the door must meet insulation performance standards, including a thermal transmittance coefficient (Uw) below a certain threshold. Our teams help you prepare your file to benefit from available aids in Wallonia, Brussels, and Flanders.
What type of wooden door is the most efficient for an energy renovation?
A solid wooden entrance door, with integrated insulation and a multi-point locking system, is generally the most efficient. It is also possible to choose a semi-glazed model, provided that the glazing is laminated and has high thermal efficiency (double or triple glazing). The choice of wood species (oak, exotic wood, etc.) and the quality of assembly also influence thermal performance.
Is wood as insulating as other materials like PVC or aluminum?
Yes. Wood is an excellent natural insulator, often superior to standard PVC or aluminum. When combined with a thermal insulating core or high-performance glazing, it achieves very good energy performance levels. Moreover, wood does not create thermal bridges, unlike some metals, making it an ideal material for an entrance door in an energy renovation project in Belgium.
Should I replace the entire door frame to improve insulation, or just the door?
To achieve the best performance and renovation aids, it is strongly recommended to replace the entire door frame: leaf, frame (surround), threshold, and sealing system. A simple renovation of the leaf, without treating the frame, greatly limits thermal gains and can lead to energy losses or air leaks.
Does the wooden door need to meet a specific Uw coefficient for energy grants?
Yes. In Wallonia, Brussels, and Flanders, the thermal transmittance coefficient Uw is a determining criterion for obtaining a grant. This coefficient measures the door's ability to limit heat loss. Generally, it must be below 1.5 W/m²K (the value may vary by region). Our wooden door models are designed to meet or exceed these requirements.
