Choosing a New Door? Consider Composite
Selecting a new front door for your home can be a hard decision to make. You’ll need to consider several factors, including security features, energy efficiency, style, and budget.
Our comprehensive collection of UPVC doors, windows, and conservatories is complemented by our premium range of composite doors, blending the classic appeal of timber with the unbeatable durability and low maintenance of UPVC.
Whether you’re renovating an older property or putting personal touches on a new build, our composite doors are a durable and elegant option.
What Are Composite External Doors Made Of?
Composite doors stand at the forefront of door technology, merging aesthetics, durability, and energy efficiency into one superior product.
Unlike traditional external doors made from singular materials such as wood or UPVC, standard composite doors are manufactured from a blend of different materials, each chosen for its specific properties to enhance your door’s overall performance.
The core of a traditional composite door consists of a robust wooden frame, providing structure and stability.
This frame is then filled with high-density foam insulation, which contributes to the door’s excellent thermal properties, keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
The outer layer of a composite door is where Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) comes into play.
GRP is a tough, weather-resistant material known for its durability and strength.
It’s designed to withstand the elements, resist wear and tear, and maintain its colour and finish over time, minimising the need for maintenance.
Benefits of Composite Front Doors
Investing in a new GRP composite door brings a multitude of benefits, whether it’s installed as an inviting front door, a secure back door, or even as a French door.
Here’s why choosing a GRP composite door is a smart decision for both functionality and aesthetics:
Versatile Installation
Our GRP composite doors with UPVC frames are suitable for a wide range of purposes, offering a flexible way to enhance your home’s security and appearance.
Superior Thermal Efficiency
Experience the comfort of optimal thermal performance with a composite front door.
During the winter months, energy-efficient composite external doors excel at retaining heat, ensuring your home is always warm and welcoming.
Conversely, in the summer, they work to keep your interiors cool and comfortable, striking the ideal balance for year-round comfort.
Added Security Features
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, our composite doors prioritise your safety.
Far surpassing traditional wooden doors, each door is equipped with a top-of-the-line multi-point locking system with steel reinforcement.
Their reinforced frames make them one of the most secure options available for external front doors, providing peace of mind and protection for your home and family.
Low Maintenance
Our GRP composite doors are remarkably easy to clean and require no painting, thanks to their durable finish.
Their GRP skin ensures they continue to look great with very little maintenance, saving you time and expense over the years.
Aesthetic Flexibility
While composite doors boast all the practical benefits of UPVC doors, they do not compromise on style.
Available in a wide array of colours, from Chartwell green to duck egg blue, our doors feature a wood-like appearance that adds a touch of traditional charm to your home’s exterior.
Additionally, with a variety of glass options to make the most of natural light, you have the freedom to choose a door style that perfectly matches the aesthetic of your property.
Our composite front doors are tailored to meet the specific needs and style preferences of every homeowner, making them a superior choice for those looking to upgrade their home’s entrance.
Unmatched Durability
Our composite timber solid core doors are constructed to stand the test of time.
The combination of UPVC doors with steel reinforcement not only enhances security but also contributes to the overall strength and life expectancy of your GRP composite door.
Composite Front Door Features
Our range of contemporary and traditional composite front doors will add character and style to your home’s exterior.
Whilst they have the look and texture of wooden doors, our composite doors are not vulnerable to the elements, and don’t need treating to preserve their colour.
Our glass reinforced plastic (GRP) composite doors come with:
- Adjustable high-security hinges
- A cassette system with a 24mm toughened glass unit
- Optional automated locking
- Multi-point locking system
They’re also fully sealed to prevent water penetration and demonstrate high thermal and sound insulation, up to 9 times more than a timber door.
