About Robust (UK) Ltd

Robust UK are the leading supplier of steel door solutions, offering a wide range of products to suit your purpose in both the Industrial and Commercial sectors. Our doors are ideally used for projects within the Transport, Education, Health, Housing and Utilities markets; whether it's for a new build or a refurbishment project, Robust has you covered.

Products
  • External Steel Doors
    The Robust ‘OUTA-DOR’ product leads the industry in steel doorsets; built for general purpose, this range of external steel doors are available in a wide range of sizes, manufactured in the UK and with an average lead time of only ten days.

  • Internal Flush Doors
    Our Internal Flush designed Steel Doors are suitable for use in most applications where timber is traditionally specified. Our steel doors are available in a wide range of sizes from 690mm - 1340mm wide single doors and 1000mm - 2600mm wide double doors, and from 1500mm - 2800mm high. Doors are made to order in 10mm increments.

  • Security Doors
    The Robust 'TUFF-DOR' is a fully certified LPS 1175 security doorset, designed to offer an enhanced level of security for premises requiring a higher level of protection than that offered by a basic steel hinged doorset.

  • Secur-Dor
    Security doors offer a physical barrier designed to deter and delay intruders for a specified time period. These doors should be used in conjunction with secondary defences and specified accordingly.

  • Glas-Dor
    Our steel profile GLAS-DOR are available in fire rated and non-fire rated specifications. Single and double configurations are available fully glazed or with mid rails.

  • Fire Doors
    Fire rated doors are designed to contain and prevent the spread of fire for a specified period of time. Our Fire Doors are available in latched and unlatched configurations, with sizes and hardware constraints varying between classifications.

  • Louvred Doors
    Our fully Louvred Steel Doors are suitable for plant rooms, boiler rooms, etc. where continuous airflow is required to ventilate machinery, vegetation, etc.

  • Profiled Doors
    Robust have designed a range of Profiled Doors to allow our conventional steel doors to step away from their 'industrial' image, with carefully selected patterns bringing traditional timber designs to steel doorsets.

  • Stainless Steel Doors
    Robust Stainless Steel Doors are manufactured from grade 304 or 316 stainless steel sheet and are suitable for environments requiring corrosion protection. Stainless steel doors are also available in a wide range of coloured, textured and patterned finishes to suit specific design requirements.

  • Hardware & Parts
    Robust Hardware is the direct store page for you to purchase door hardware and replacement parts for Robust UK steel doors. We stock a wide range of steel door parts, including: handles, locks, hinges, seals, panic hardware, closers & stays, cylinders, paint, thresholds, access control hardware, and plates.
The 'Robust' nature of our products comes from our history as Scandinavian manufacturers of steel hinged doors. The harsh environments of Sweden required security, function and peace of mind - all of which Robust deliver on a daily basis. With over forty years of experience, we are leading the industry with our custom-made steel door solutions. Also, the recent acquisition of the Robust Group by Norvester Equity AS speaks for the vast developments at the company (not forgetting our £2m expansion).

The UK market is currently becoming more aware of the benefits of choosing high quality steel doors over timber, not only in terms of their life expectancy and whole cost but also in terms of the durability and flexibility of the materials. Robust UK believes in the longevity of steel, providing an immovable and constant defence against whatever the world has to throw at us.

This is where the Old English definition for steel comes from. Meaning 'to stay', the products that we manufacture are rigorously checked to stand the test of time. Robust believes in innovation, using state of the art CNC machinery to provide both standard and custom-made products according to customer specification. Due to our use of flat sheet materials, we are also able to incorporate almost any hardwear configuration into our doorsets, made to order and with swifter lead times.

Steel sheet material is available in a variety of finished, basic Zintec, Aluzinc or galvanised materials, offering corrosion resistance which can be enhanced by polyester powder coating in an enormous range of colours. If greater environmental protection is required, we can increase the powder coat finish to meet marine grade specifications, or we can offer an enhanced corrosion resistant base material, Magnelis, which is proving to be extremely popular.

Robust UK's Multi-Million Pound Move

Robust UK, the UK’s leading steel door manufacturer, has moved to a new £6 million production facility.

Situated on Lymedale Business Park, Newcastle-under-Lyme, the new site is more than double the size of their previous premises in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent.

New machinery has been invested in which will increase capacity, reduce lead times and provide smoother fabrication and precision – all for the benefit of their customers.

The firm, who employ over 150 staff, manufacture many thousands of door sets every year to customers across the UK and have more than 40 years’ experience in making custom-made steel door solutions.

Vertical space in the new site has been maximised with Kardex towers and racking – providing more efficiencies than the ground footprint would suggest. The company’s custom-built powder coating line is also now one of the largest in the UK as a result of the move.

Robust UK was founded in 1999 and supplies an extensive range of products including fire and security doors, personnel doors, and glazed and louvered options. All doors are custom built to order.

The door manufacturer, who became part of the Novoferm Group in 2019, have ambitious plans for the new facility with a target to grow by 50% by 2030 and beyond.

Commercial Director Paul Williams said: “From humble beginnings from our first site in Tean we have grown exponentially. We are proud to operate in Staffordshire and it was vitally important to us that Robust UK’s new home remained in the county. We needed to find the perfect location not just to meet our specific manufacturing needs but the right site for our staff too. Lymedale Business Park is just that. It’s in a great position with bigger, better, fantastic facilities which will ultimately benefit our customers.

He added: “The factory move is the just the start of a very exciting time for Robust and heralds the beginning of a major financial investment by Novoferm in the company’s future-growth plans.

"Times are difficult for UK manufacturing so to be able to invest over £6m in our future and celebrate our success is something all of us at Robust are very proud of.”
