In 2025, Vista Panels is proud to celebrate 30 years as one of the most respected door panel suppliers UK-wide, and a leading name among composite door manufacturers with our XtremeDoor range. Since opening our doors back in 1995, we’ve built our reputation on quality, reliability, and service – values that remain at the heart of everything we do.
Three decades on, we’re still manufacturing on the Wirral, still growing, and still delivering the fast turnaround, dependable quality and long-term support that our trade customers rely on.
Built for the trade: then and now
Back in the mid-90s, Vista Panels began with a simple mission, to manufacture doors that combined exceptional quality with dependable service for the trade. From our early days producing PVCu panels, we quickly grew our capabilities, investing in larger premises, advanced machinery, and a skilled team dedicated to delivering consistent results.
As the market evolved, so did we. By the early 2000s, we were expanding our composite door range, responding to growing demand from installers, trade counters, and housebuilders for doors that offered both style and substance.
Building trust through consistency
In the trade, trust isn’t built overnight, it’s earned, order by order and delivery by delivery. Over the years, we’ve learned that the key to long-term relationships is delivering on promises, no matter the project size. That’s why our customers know they can rely on us for:
- Fast turnaround –doors manufactured and delivered in as little as five working days.
- Consistent quality – every product manufactured in-house, giving us complete control over standards.
- Technical excellence – uPVC door panels and our composite doors are manufactured to the highest standards, combining quality materials, skilled craftsmanship and rigorous checks to ensure lasting performance.
Why fast turnaround still matters
In an industry where lead times can stretch to six or eight weeks, we typically manufacture and deliver in just five working days. That speed helps our trade customers secure more work, keep schedules on track, and respond quickly to homeowner demand.
But speed is only part of the story. Accuracy, communications, and a proactive technical support team mean we help prevent fitting issues and reduce costly call-backs. From QR-coded fitting guides to on-site toolbox talks, we give installers the support to get it right the first time.
People, partnerships and performance
We’re proud to employ almost 190 people locally, many of whom have been part of the Vista story for years, and in some cases, across generations of the same family. That stability translates into expertise, pride in workmanship, and a shared commitment to our customers’ success.
Partnership is central to how we work. We don’t just supply doors, we support our customers with sales materials, technical advice, and responsive service that adds value beyond the product itself.
Looking ahead
While we’re proud of the last 30 years, we’re not standing still. We’re expanding our panel and composite door production, refreshing our brand, and building new resources to help our trade customers grow.
The past three decades have been shaped by the relationships we’ve built, and as we move forward, those partnerships will continue to be at the heart of everything we do.
Our message to the trade is simple: if you need a UK-based manufacturing partner who delivers on promises, supports you on the ground, and helps you win more business, Vista Panels is ready.
