External UPVC door - Outward opening

[tommy8884]

Hi,

I have asked a builder to install a UPVC external back door to my external garage. They are going to make the opening in the single skin non load bearing wall.

I am going to supply the door to keep the cost down (i want the whole job including builder and door to be sub £500).

Ideally I want the door to open outwards, but these seem hard to come by on a budget. Is it possible to fit an inward opening door so it opens outwards? i know the drainage will need modifying but is it otherwise a practical thing to do? I was thinking something like this door:

Your comments would be much appreciated. Thanks

Why is it more for opening out, you will have to get one made to measure, don't thin you will get one of shelf

Coming in under £500 should be fine.
£270-£320 for the door plus a days labour.
Builders fitting doors scare me!!!

Do you think i should just go for a proper door/window firm?

The builder has quoted £280 + VAT. I can only find inward opening doors for about £300. That brings me to about £640. I was getting quotes from window firms of £1000 for an outward opening door.

Got to a small window/glass company. Should be able to get a open out door for about £400ish

350 supply only for an outward opening door sounds about right
