Security
It's reassuring to know that our composite doors are arguably the most secure on the market, featuring insurance and Police approved locking systems.
ABS Master
We know protecting your home and family is important. Knowing your door is fitted with an ABS Master lock will give you the peace of mind you’re doing all you can, to do just that
This 3-star, tried and tested British Kitemarked approved cylinder creates a barrier if it’s attacked. Avocet are so sure of its high performance; they’re willing to offer £2000* if it’s snapped by a burglar!
Ultion Lock
It seems only fitting that the UK’s most secure composite door now features the country’s most secure locking system; the Ultion
It’s called the ‘Ultion’ because it offers the ultimate in locking protection, all with a £2000 homeowner guarantee*, capable of sensing an attack and subsequently engaging via a hidden lock to prevent intruders gaining entry, even when snapped twice
Analysis has shown that the Ultion easily outperforms the very best 3 star locks in a variety of different tests and when locked, stays locked
No key, no chance of burglary; the Ultion really is that good
Lock Lock
With Lock Lock, better security is built right in. Because when you lock a door featuring Lock Lock, you lock the spindle. This patented design features a simple, super-safe switch which replaces the need to turn a key to lock your door. There's no fuss, no risk and no searching for keys. You simply press down the switch and your door is more than locked. It's Lock Locked. So your family is better protected. Instantly

Avantis Lock
The Avantis Lock is exclusive to Solidor and was recently subject to the very highest testing procedures at a UKAS accredited Test Centre. According to an independent testing house it was 'the strongest composite door yet tested' thanks to the hardware and the fact that the Solidor slab is a solid timber core, rather than a foam filled GRP door that other manufacturers use. This new lock provides the largest and strongest hook and bolt system in the door sector. Like many features from Solidor, this new locking mechanism carries the market's first 25mm triangulated dead bolt, which makes for greater compression and security on a closed door. Another key feature is the deadlock, which also operates from the action of lifting the handle, rather than a key turn
The Avantis lock easily passed PAS 24 for security, which requires that the lock can sustain a manual attack for three minutes. In fact after two men had attacked the door for five minutes, they gave up to test the Solidor hinge, which also comfortably exceeded the required specification. Look at our video to see for yourself just how secure our doors are. Solidor can boast that not only are their doors some of the most secure in the market, they are also some of the most innovative!
Key Wind Up
Our Key Wind Up locking systems are used on doors where there is no locking handle, but traditional pull door furniture. Typical Edwardian and Georgian period doors had large pull handles and knobs and also our luxurious Italia Collection features the Key Wind Up locks, to enable the introduction of some very striking contemporary door handles. We also incorporate Key Wind Up locking when our traditional hand made antique door furniture is specified. Behind the Key Wind Up lock is an STV Cobra 2 mechanism, which is tested in accordance with DIN18103 (burglar resistant doors) and approved by major UK insurance companies
The deadbolt and hooks are thrown by turning the key and it also features a secure locking mechanism using sintered metal gears, which ensures a long service life. The STV Cobra 2 has been tested in accordance with PAS23 & PAS24 standards and the deadbolt can withstand in excess of 4.5kN end load, to comply with the additional Police 'Secured by Design' initiative. Reliability is provided by the fact that it has been endurance tested to 100,000 cycles and 30,000 cycles under load
Heritage AV2
As you would expect from a pioneer in the composite door market, we've pulled off yet another first in the door market with the introduction of the AV2 Heritage Door Lock. This new lock satisfies the need for traditional looking rim latches on composite doors, yet with the benefit of high security, multipoint locking. The AV2 is seen as an upgrade from the standard Key Wind Up and traditional rim lock used on our doors. Up until now, modern multi-point locking systems haven't lent themselves to doors that feature pull door furniture, particularly Georgian and Edwardian period doors and it has been a topic of discussion for the composite door sector
The AV2 Heritage Locking System has the euro profile locking cylinder at a similar height to a traditional round cylinder and the lock is operated automatically as soon as the door is closed. This key feature means that an external lever handle is not required to operate the locking points and the lock can be opened externally by turning the key a quarter of a turn or deadlocked with an additional full turn. From the inside, the door can be opened by an internal thumb turn, again with a quarter turn. The door is automatically locked when closed from the inside or outside and the key is then required to gain entry from the outside. The AV2 has been engineered and manufactured in Germany as a quality product and is Police Secured by Design and PAS23/24 accredited
Ultion NUKI PLUS smart handle & BOLT
The result of Ultion and Nuki working together is more than a smart lock

A wide range of accessories
We have a fine selection of beautiful accessories for our composite doors including an array of elegantly styled and finished hinges, handles, letter plates and door knockers. Whether you’re seeking a modern or traditional looking composite door, you will find an accessory to really make your Solidor stand out
Security - Secure as standard
Britain’s most secure composite doors have just got even better thanks to Ultion. Fitted as standard in every Solidor, this revolutionary locking system will when locked, stay locked. Leaving a key on the inside of the lock won’t affect its performance, plus you can have as many keys cut as you like
If a break-in occurs as a result of lock snapping, Ultion will give you £2000
Solid timber core
All of our composite doors are based on our proven 48mm design that is 10% thicker than our nearest competitors and offers incredible around-the-clock protection. The added thickness of a Solidor is because it is manufactured from a solid timber core, which helps make it the most durable composite door on the market
Solidor 5K Guarantee
Introducing Solidor’s 5 Star guarantee. Buy a Solidor fitted with a 3 star Ultion cylinder and 2 star Lock Lock handle and your door qualifies for our £5,000 homeowner guarantee
