IG Doors celebrates 25 years with Secured by Design

With more than 45 years of experience, IG Doors has established itself as a trusted supplier to housing providers, developers and contractors across the UK. The company’s success is founded on a partnership-based approach to working with clients, supported by consistent delivery performance and a clear understanding of the needs of residents in the homes where its products are installed.

IG Doors has developed a specialist range of doorsets tailored to the specific requirements of the sectors it serves. Its products are designed to remain fully compliant with evolving building regulations and industry standards, including PAS 24 and Approved Document Q, while also meeting the Police Preferred Specification requirements of the Secured by Design initiative. Guaranteed quality standards, combined with a choice of door materials such as steel-faced and glass reinforced polymer, enable IG Doors to deliver products engineered for long-term performance, safety and security.

As a Secured by Design member for 25 years, IG Doors has achieved Police Preferred Specification accreditation across a number of doorset systems, including:

• IG Doors HD Composite Residential Glazed Door System
• IG Doors HFD Composite Residential Glazed Door System
• IG Doors HNG Composite Residential Glazed Door System
• IG Doors HFNG Composite Residential Glazed Door System
• IG Doors HTR Composite Residential Door System

Through its continued focus on compliance, quality and resident-focused design, IG Doors has maintained a strong and enduring relationship with Secured by Design, supporting safer homes and communities over the past quarter of a century.

Rhys Davies, Managing Director at IG Doors, said: “Celebrating 25 years of Secured by Design membership is a significant milestone for IG Doors and one that reflects our long-term commitment to security, compliance and product integrity.

For us, Secured by Design is not simply an accreditation - it represents a design philosophy centred on protecting residents and supporting housing providers with doorsets they can trust. Our continued investment in product development and UK manufacturing ensures we remain aligned with evolving regulations and security standards.”

Hazel Goss, Secured by Design, said: “It was lovely to issue IG Doors with their 25 year award. On the day it was myself, a local Inspector and two of our DOCOs in attendance, to whom IG Doors gave a tour of the factory and production. They were over the moon to receive this prestigious award and it is going to take pride of place in the main foyer. Well done and well deserved.”
