Composite doors are everywhere nowadays. You see them advertised and maybe even some of your neighbours have them. But what are they and why should you choose them for your home?

What is a composite door?

A composite door is made up of a combination of materials. This means it can improve on the performance of standard uPVC and timber doors. With a rigid polymer frame and insulating foam core, the multi-layers provide barriers against the cold and severe weather. As well as their unique interior, their exterior also makes them stand out. These doors have a woodgrain effect GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skin that’s damage and impact resistant. This lets them fit in perfectly in traditional as well as modern homes.

What are the benefits of a composite door for your home?

1. They’re attractive and will boost your kerb appeal

The aesthetic appeal is what first draws people to composite doors. Your front door is often one of the first elements of your home a guest will see. It’s important that it impresses, and composite doors certainly do that. With a resistant GRP skin, the colour will never fade. These doors have the timber look with modern performance. Fine detailing adds to the authentic look.

2. They will keep your home free of draughts

The thermal performance of our composite doors is second to none. With a highly insulating core, your home will no longer suffer from cold spots or draughts. Whatever the weather’s doing outside, you’ll be comfortable inside with A energy rating’s achievable. This will lower your energy bills and the superb insulation will keep unwanted sound out too.
