Composite Doors

uPVC doors are made out of a single material whereas composite doors are made from a number of materials which are pressed and glued together. uPVC doors are a popular choice in homes across the country because they provide a good balance between security, insulation, and cost.  Composite doors are significantly more expensive than uPVC doors, which is why uPVC remains the most popular choice of door.

uPVC door frames can be customised to meet your design preferences and can fit most standard doorways.  Your installer will measure the size available and talk to you about the different options available for your home.

Doors themselves are available in a variety of different heights and widths.  These doors can then be combined with various thicknesses of frame in order to fit your home.

The shape and size of your door will usually be governed by the available size of the aperture where it will be fitted.  If you have a much larger than average doorway, then you might consider either a wider door, or to include a glazed panel next to the door to improve the amount of light coming into your hallway.  You may also want to consider a double door design, the possibilities are nearly endless about how you can transform the entrance to your house to create the perfect look to complement your taste.

Composite doors are made from a number of materials which are pressed and glued together, these materials include PVC, wood, insulating foam and GRP (glass reinforced plastic).
