Why Are Pre hung Pre finished Door sets so important and so Popular? A Guide by P and M Doors
When selecting new internal doors, you often choose between traditional wooden doors and modern wood-based board (MDF) doors with a laminate or painted finish. At P & M Contemporary Doors, we supply high-quality pre-hung and pre-finished door sets from DRE, one of Europe’s largest door manufacturers. Our customers love their doors for their style, durability, and ease of installation.
1. What is a Door Set?
A door set (or door kit) includes everything you need:
Door leaf (the main door)
Frame (supplied in three ready-to-assemble parts)
Architraves (to complete the frame)
Hinges & lock (already fitted)
The frame comes pre-cut and pre-drilled, making assembly simple with just a screwdriver and a sharp knife to trim the rubber seal.
2. Comfort & Noise Reduction
All P & M Contemporary Doors come with a rubber seal for soft closing, reducing noise and preventing draughts. This keeps your home quieter and warmer—perfect for cold winter nights.
3. Low Maintenance
Unlike traditional wooden doors, DRE doors never need painting or staining. Their pre-finished surface stays pristine with just a quick wipe-down with a damp cloth. The hinges also stay in great condition with occasional oiling—saving you time and effort.
4. Stylish & Versatile Designs
We offer a wide range of colours and styles to suit any home. Whether you love a modern, sleek finish or prefer the classic look of woodgrain, we have the perfect door for you. Choose from woodgrain finishes that mimic oak or walnut, offering the charm of real wood with the benefits of modern materials.
5. Energy Efficient Doors
With rising energy costs, having thermally efficient doors is more important than ever. Our doors help retain heat, keeping your home warm and reducing energy bills. Even doors with glass panels maintain insulation thanks to their rubber seals.
