Introduction: When a Door Becomes Architecture
Some doors simply open — the Solidor Modena, available through GFD Homes, becomes part of your home’s architecture.
Created for homeowners who want their entrance to embody modern luxury, the Modena stands out with its clean vertical glazing, balanced proportions, and sculptural precision.
It doesn’t just complement contemporary homes — it elevates them.
The Modena makes a statement long before you’ve reached the threshold.
The Solidor Modena — Italian Design, British Engineering
The Modena is inspired by modern Italian minimalism — clean lines, symmetry, and intelligent use of glass and geometry.
Every contour, every proportion has been refined to create balance and sophistication.
It’s a design that complements high-end architecture — from modern suburban builds to glass-fronted extensions.
Key design elements:
- Vertical glazed aperture offset for visual intrigue.
- Smooth, flush door surface with precision detailing.
- Perfect for contemporary homes and sleek renovations.
The Modena proves that a door can be both functional and beautiful.
Modena Glazed — Light, Style, Perfection
From £1,010 inc VAT

The signature glazed strip gives the Modena its unmistakable personality — tall, narrow, and architectural.
It’s available in a variety of glazing styles, from clear satin to etched or decorative glass, letting you control both privacy and light.
Why customers love it:
- Creates vertical emphasis, enhancing the sense of height.
- Perfectly complements minimalist or contemporary homes.
- Balances aesthetics and natural light beautifully.
In short — it’s not just a door; it’s design at the front of your home.
Modena Solid — Quiet Confidence
From £924 inc VAT
The Modena Solid takes the same sculptural form — just without the glazing.
The result? A bolder, more assertive aesthetic for those who want total privacy and sleek modern styling.
Ideal for:
- City properties or homes near busy roads.
- Modern builds with full-glass sidelights.
- Customers who prefer visual impact over light.
In darker colours like Schwarzbraun or Anthracite Grey, it looks effortlessly high-end.
Made to Measure — Down to the Millimetre
Every Modena from GFD Homes is built bespoke, crafted to the exact dimensions of your property.
Forget “off-the-peg.”
This is Savile Row for doors — precision-engineered to the millimetre.
Why it matters:
- Perfect fit = better insulation, better soundproofing.
- Zero compromise on aesthetic alignment.
- No trimming, filler panels, or shortcuts.
At GFD, “made to measure” isn’t a luxury. It’s standard.
Where the Modena Belongs
The Modena is designed to elevate homes that lean contemporary — think modern detached houses, architect-led extensions, or statement urban builds.
Ideal architectural pairings:
- White render, brick, or dark cladding.
- Glass-fronted façades.
- Homes with minimalist landscaping or aluminium detailing.
Top colour pairings:
- Anthracite Grey for understated luxury.
- Schwarzbraun for depth and contrast.
- Agate Grey or Foiled White for Scandi-inspired minimalism.
- French Grey for contemporary warmth.
Hardware & Detailing: The Finishing Touches
The Modena demands hardware that matches its precision.
Popular choices:
- Long stainless-steel pull bars (contemporary or offset).
- Square escutcheons and minimalist letterplates.
- Stainless steel or graphite finishes to complement modern tones.
Every handle, hinge, and lock can be tailored to your design — because perfection lies in the details.
Performance: Substance Behind the Style
Behind the Modena’s sleek exterior lies Solidor’s industry-leading engineering — the technology that makes it one of the most secure, durable, and energy-efficient composite doors on the market.
Built to outperform:
- 48mm Solid Timber Core — far superior to foam-filled alternatives.
- PAS24 Certified Security — police-approved peace of mind.
- Ultion 3-Star Plus Lock — the UK’s highest-rated locking system.
- A-Rated Thermal Efficiency — keeps warmth in, energy bills down.
- Fully Sustainable — FSC-certified timber and recyclable materials.
The Modena isn’t just modern in design — it’s modern in purpose.
