Back Doors in Chelsea, London
Every back doors project we deliver in Chelsea starts with a senior surveyor on site — measuring, listening, and specifying to the character of Sloane Square, King's Road and the wider London area. Secure, insulated back doors in uPVC, aluminium and composite.
Back Doors designed around front doors that need to look right on a stucco terrace and secure a family home.
Chelsea's white-stucco terraces, mansion blocks and mews cottages sit almost entirely within conservation areas. We specify slim sightlines, painted finishes and heritage hardware — accepted by RBKC planners on projects from King's Road to Cheyne Walk.

Why Chelsea homeowners choose South East Windows & Doors.
Chelsea surveys, London experience
A senior surveyor visits every Chelsea project in person — no call-centre, no sub-contracted quoting. We understand front doors that need to look right on a stucco terrace and secure a family home because we install across London every week.
Made-to-measure back doors
Every back doors we install in Chelsea is manufactured to the survey — not selected from a stock list. That's why the finish, sightlines and thresholds match the property.
Postcode-covered: SW3, SW10
Weekly installs across SW3, SW10 and the surrounding London area, with parking, protection and clean-down handled by our own crews. Insurance-backed 10-year guarantee on every back doors project.
What sets our back doors apart in Chelsea.
Half-Glazed by Default
Obscured privacy glass in the upper half lets light into a utility or hallway without exposing a full glazed door to the garden. Fully glazed and solid-panel variants also available.
PAS 24 Multi-Point Locking
Same locking specification as the front door — multi-point hook, 3-star anti-snap cylinder, laminated inner glazing. Back doors are the entry point insurers ask about.
Low-Threshold Option
Standard 45mm weathered cill or Part M compliant 15mm low-threshold aluminium sill for wheelchair, pushchair and step-free access to the garden.
Cat-Flap Ready
We machine cat-flap apertures at manufacture — clean, sealed and weather-tight — rather than the retrofit hole a joiner cuts on-site.
Colour-Fast Finish
Chartwell Green, Painswick, Anthracite, Cream, Rosewood and 15+ more stocked as deep-grain foils or spray-applied RAL finishes.
What Chelsea homeowners tell us.
"They liaised directly with our managing agent and the freeholder — a huge relief. The block now has matched sightlines and a proper 10-year guarantee."
"A 6.4m aluminium bifold set across the rear of our garden flat. Slim sightlines, perfect thresholds, and the team left the house cleaner than they found it."
"Sprayed a bespoke Farrow & Ball green on our composite front door. The finish is glass-smooth and the security spec exceeds our insurer's PAS 24 requirements."
Common questions from Chelsea homeowners.
- Do you install back doors in Chelsea?
- Yes — South East Windows & Doors installs back doors across Chelsea (SW3, SW10) and the wider London area every week. Every project is surveyed, manufactured and installed by our own teams.
- How long does back doors installation take in Chelsea?
- Most Chelsea projects run to a two-to-eight week lead time from signed quote to install, depending on manufacture. Once on site, a typical back doors install completes in one to five working days with full dust-sheet protection and clean-down.
- Do you handle conservation-area planning in Chelsea?
- Working across London means understanding period detail, party-wall etiquette and permit parking as well as we understand glass. We schedule dust sheets, protection and clean-down like a good building firm should. We prepare planning-ready drawings with matched sightlines, glazing-bar depths and hardware for Chelsea projects that require them.
- What guarantee covers back doors in Chelsea?
- Every back doors installation in Chelsea is covered by our insurance-backed 10-year guarantee — parts, labour and finish. Aftercare is direct with the installing team, not a call centre.
- Can I see recent back doors work near Chelsea?
- Yes — we can share recent back doors case studies from across London, including projects in Sloane Square, King's Road and neighbouring towns. Ask your surveyor at the on-site visit.
- Do back doors need the same security as front doors?
- Yes — most insurers require the same PAS 24 multi-point locking and 3-star anti-snap cylinder on every external door. A back door onto a fenced-off garden is not lower risk; it's often higher because it's less overlooked.
- What material for a back door?
- uPVC for hard-wearing everyday use and value. Composite where the back door is on view from the garden and needs to match the front. Aluminium where the door reads through to a contemporary rear elevation. All three carry identical security.
- Can I have a cat-flap?
- Yes — machined into the door at manufacture, so it's clean, sealed, insulated and weather-tight. Petsafe, SureFlap and Cat-Mate are the three brands we fit as standard.
