Edinburgh-based The Door Centre Ltd has been commended in a regional e-trading category of the national E-commerce Awards for its online portal, www.directdoors.com.

The awards are run by the Department of Trade and Industry and InterForum, a not-for-profit organisation that helps British businesses trade electronically.

The Door Centre’s website was praised for being an excellent business-to-consumer site which had put thought into the user-buying process by creating a content system that allowed correct quantities to be bought through a process of product compatibility.
