A tall story

Force 8 has completed the installation of one of its bespoke tall arched composite doors for a homeowner in its local area, a project that highlights the company’s continued leadership in specialist profile bending and non-standard door design.

The customer required a genuine tall arched door with no infill at the head of the frame and no square slab paired with an arched top light, a configuration widely offered as a compromise by other suppliers. After approaching several companies, the homeowner discovered that Force 8 was not only able to manufacture a fully arched, seamless frame to the exact specification, but could also provide a complete supply-and-fit service, as they were local to them.

Force 8 says it remains the only UK manufacturer producing tall, and fully arched composite doors and frames fabricated from a single, continuous length of profile. Its in-house profile-bending facility can form curves up to 6,500 mm, allowing the production of high-accuracy arches without welds or joints. According to the company, this ensures structural integrity, consistent sightlines, and a premium finish suitable for both residential and specialist architectural applications.

The company has built a long-standing reputation for delivering bespoke solutions that fall outside the scope of mainstream fabrication. Its composite door range, including arched, oversized, and wide-format options, is supported by precision bending techniques developed over decades. For installers, this provides access to a reliable source of non-standard products that would otherwise be difficult to source or fulfil.

According to the homeowner, the finished installation exceeded expectations and validated their decision not to settle for the “second-best” alternatives offered elsewhere. The seamless arched frame delivered the exact aesthetic they wanted, while benefitting from the durability, energy performance, and security features associated with Force 8’s composite door systems.
