What is a Composite Door?

A composite door is a type of external door built from several different materials, renowned for strength and durability. A composite door usually has a hardwearing and weather resistant exterior glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) skin, housing a thick timber or insulating foam core.

Why Choose a Composite Door?

  1. Thermally Efficient Design

    Our composite doors are made from a 44m or 48mm thick door panel with insulating materials inside. They keep the heat in and the cold out with a U-Value or BFRC energy rating that meets the most up-to-date Building Regulations.

  2. Long-Lasting

    Composite doors are very hard-wearing and durable. A high quality, professionally installed composite door can last over 30 years with proper care. They stand up to everyday knocks and bumps and won’t crack or peel over time.

  3. Easy Maintenance

    Composite doors are among the easiest front and back door types to look after over time. Simply wipe them down regularly and keep the seals and hinges clear of debris.

Composite vs uPVC Doors - Which is Right for You?

If you’re considering a composite or uPVC door, you want to know what the main advantages of each are. Both materials are popular, but there are some key differences. Composite doors are thicker, stronger and often achieve higher energy efficiency ratings than uPVC exterior doors. Both are highly durable and weather resistant, as well as being easy to maintain.

Composite doors also offer more design flexibility, thanks to having a GRP skin that can be adapted and shaped to almost any design. They both have excellent security features with Secured by Design approved 3-star cylinder locks, as well as multipoint locking. The biggest difference though is cost, with composite doors being a more premium option than uPVC doors.
