We’re not the biggest door company in the Midlands, and we don’t want to be. What matters to us is doing every job properly and being there if you ever need us.

Jim starts Very Secure Doors
After years in the door industry, Jim set up on his own to do things differently: honest advice, careful fitting, and treating every home the way he’d want his own treated.

Josh joins, straight from school
A father teaching his son the trade. Now the same two people answer your call, survey your home and fit your door.

These aren’t badges for the sake of it. They mean your door is fitted to Building Regulations, your guarantee is valid, and you’re protected if anything goes wrong.

I could not be happier with my new front door, I absolutely love it. Jim and Josh were fantastic to deal with throughout the process.…Responsive to messages when I had queries, everything was easy. On the day of the install both Josh and Jim were organised and tidy. They had great attention to detail and I now have a beautifully fitted, beautiful new door that keeps drafts out and reduces traffic noise and feels very secure.
Had big problems with my 15 year old front composit door . It had dropped, Hinge screws wouldn’t tighten , couldn’t get it lock properly.…srugling to open and shut . not used it for 6 weeks .

Yes. Jim started Very Secure Doors in 2010 and his son Josh joined in 2015. It’s still just the two of us: we design, survey and fit every door ourselves.
Who will fit my door?
Jim and Josh, always. We don’t use subcontractors, salespeople or a call centre, so the people who survey your home are the people who fit your door.
Do you have a showroom?
No. We work from home in Breedon on the Hill, which keeps our prices down. We bring colour samples to your survey, so you can see them against your own house, and you can design your door online any time.
In Breedon on the Hill, between Derby, Nottingham and Leicester. We fit doors across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and the West Midlands, including Solihull and Birmingham, and as far north as Sheffield. See every area we cover.
Can I see doors you’ve fitted?
Yes. Our work shows doors we’ve fitted across the Midlands, and each town page has photos from that town, like Derby and Nottingham.
