Hi all, very random request, and not quite sure which room to put it in...


We need a new front door, and someone recommended Velfac, but apparently their nearest distributor with a showroom showcasing a front door is Milton Keynes.. not the most convenient from ED. Does anyone know anyone in the area that has installed a Velfac front door? If so, would they mind if I cycled over at some point to take a very brief external look at the door? I wouldn't disturb anyone and won't touch anything I promise!


If don't feel comfortable sharing an address, any feedback or even a photo would be hugely appreciated!

Many many thanks!

Ask the distributor or a local installer, although it may be that your particular model may not be availble for inspection or the homeowner may not welcome a visit (perfectly reasonable).


I've just had a lovely pirnar aluminium front door installed, it's very highly insulated and triple glazed and has made a massive difference to our house in terms of thermal and noise insulation. Unfortunately, the only dealer with a full set on display was thames valley windows in bracknell ... but they do have a massive selection on display.

Thanks Redpost, unfortunately I've tried numerous distributors and showrooms, and noone has any of their doors on display.. even tried a showroom way outside of London, who had a door to be installed for a client that I could have seen (I don't mind that it wouldn't be fixed and "working") but they shipped it before I could get there..

Has anyone on the EDF had a velfac door??


Thanks!

    • I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.
    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
