In recent years, high-pressure laminates (HPL) have become a key part of the fire door industry. As a trusted UK door manufacturer, we at Pendle Doors have seen firsthand how HPL improves both the look and function of our products.
HPL is known for its strength, hygiene, and design flexibility. It handles heavy use without showing damage. That makes it perfect for places like hospitals, schools, and apartment blocks. These are spaces where both safety and style matter.
Our fire doors, finished with HPL, are strong, safe, and stylish. The surface resists scratches, impacts, and general wear. The ease of cleaning also makes HPL ideal for high-traffic and hygiene-sensitive environments.
As fire door manufacturers, we don’t compromise on safety. All our doorsets meet strict fire and smoke testing standards, including BS EN 1634-1:2014 and BS EN 1634-3:2004. When combined with a Severe Duty-rated core, HPL offers a finish that supports the fire performance of the door.
All FD30, FD60, FD90 and FD120 fire doorsets we supply are built to perform. Our doors include multi-point locking systems, security handles, and high-quality hardware. HPL finishes provide the perfect final layer, ensuring fire safety, durability, and long-term good looks.
One of the biggest advantages of HPL is its wide range of finishes. Whether your project calls for natural wood looks, bright colours, or a minimalist modern style, HPL delivers. We offer real wood veneers and factory-painted options too, but HPL remains a top choice for those who need performance and custom design in one package.
Our factory-fitted mouldings and glazing options give architects and designers freedom. Add a side lite, over-panel, or shaped aperture. Each element works together to create a door that performs well and looks great.
Pendle Doors holds both the BM Trada Q-Mark Fire Door Manufacturing and Enhanced Security Door certifications. Our fire and security apartment entrance doors are Secured by Design accredited. Every detail, from the materials used to the factory-controlled build process, meets the highest standards.
HPL fire doors are especially popular in residential and public buildings. Whether it’s student housing, social housing, or a new office development, HPL helps ensure that style doesn’t come at the cost of safety.
As a leading UK door manufacturer, we understand the importance of getting every detail right. If you’re specifying for a high-demand environment, HPL is a smart finish to consider. It’s tough, easy to maintain, and versatile in design.
