Can I fit a composite door in a wood frame?

While it is possible to do this, we strongly recommend that you get a new frame when you are getting a composite door, this is to ensure that the door is secure and exactly the right size. The multi-point locks fitted to modern composite and UPVC front doors are designed to fit snugly into the corresponding points in the frame, and this can be difficult to replicate in a traditional timber door frame.
