Doors for Every Communal Setting,
Installed Across the UK

Each door is engineered for security, longevity, and performance — because the people using them deserve the very best.

Communal Entrance Doors

Strength Meets First Impressions

Our flagship solution for social housing blocks and apartment communal entrances. Built from heavy-duty Sapele or Iroko hardwood, these doors are engineered for constant use without compromising on appearance.

Fitted with 2 × 500kg holding force magnetic locks, they deliver exceptional security and are fully compatible with controlled access systems — ensuring safe, reliable entry for residents and visitors alike.

Care & Supported Living Doors

Designed Around People

Thoughtfully designed to prioritise comfort, dignity, and accessibility, these doors help create environments that feel welcoming and familiar.

Wider clear openings allow for easier movement, while ergonomic D-handles and carefully considered glazing options bring in natural light and openness. Every detail supports independence and wellbeing — helping residents feel at home, not institutionalised.

DDA Compliant D-Handle Glazing Options Wide Clear Opening
Double Leaf Doors

Security for Wider Openings

Purpose-built for larger spaces such as plant rooms, bin stores, and electrical cupboards, our double leaf doors provide robust protection across a 1200mm clear opening.

Combining strength with smooth operation, each door is fitted with an integrated door selector, ensuring the correct closing sequence every time — delivering reliability in high-demand environments.

Constructed from durable Sapele or Iroko hardwood, these doors are fitted with high-performance panic bars for fast, effortless egress when it matters most. Fully compliant with emergency exit requirements and compatible with controlled access systems, they ensure buildings remain both secure and safe at all times.

Why ManMar

Security Without Compromise

🎯

Right Door. Right Purpose.

We don't just supply doors — we help you specify the right solution for your exact environment. Our team works closely with you to review project requirements and recommend the correct door type, size, glazing, and hardware — ensuring every installation is truly fit for purpose from day one.

🪵

Sapele & Iroko Hardwood Construction

Every door is crafted from premium FSC-certified Sapele or Iroko hardwood — renowned for strength, durability, and natural resilience. These are timbers built to perform in demanding communal environments, offering a rich, warm finish that engineered or composite alternatives simply can't replicate.

🔐

Independently Tested Security

Engineered for protection, our doors are independently tested to recognised enhanced security standards. Reinforced hardwood construction, combined with high-performance locking systems, delivers robust resistance against forced entry.

♿

Designed Around People

Accessibility is built in — not added on. With DDA-compliant hardware, generous clear openings, and low thresholds as standard, every detail is designed to support safe, comfortable use for all residents.

🛡️

About ManMar

A Family Business Built on Trust

For over 25 years, ManMar Security Doors has been built on a simple belief: the people who live in social housing, care homes, and supported accommodation deserve the same quality, security, and dignity as anyone else.

Based in Wigan, Lancashire, we design and manufacture every door in-house using premium Sapele and Iroko hardwood. This hands-on approach gives us complete control over quality, specification, and delivery — ensuring every door meets the highest standards from the outset.

We work in close partnership with housing associations, local authorities, care providers, and contractors, providing guidance at every stage to ensure each installation is right first time.

Our team understands the realities of communal environments — the constant use, the need for intuitive accessibility, and the responsibility to protect vulnerable residents. That experience is built into every detail, creating doors that don't just perform, but genuinely support the people who use them every day.
