Composite doors offer a modern solution for those seeking durability, security, and energy efficiency in one package. Made from a combination of materials including PVC, wood, insulating foam, and GRP (glass reinforced plastic), these doors are designed to surpass the performance of traditional wooden or PVC doors. British craftsmanship ensures each door is not just a functional entryway but a statement piece for your home.
The superior thermal performance of composite doors comes from their unique structure, featuring a dense foam core that provides excellent insulation. This core significantly reduces heat transfer, making composite doors far more energy-efficient than their wood or PVC counterparts. Such efficiency is crucial for reducing energy bills and enhancing the comfort of your home year-round.
Composite doors do not compromise on style for the sake of performance. Available in a wide range of colours, from classic Grained White to vibrant Cotswold Green, and designs inspired by different architectural eras, these doors can complement any home aesthetics. The availability of various glass options further allows for personalisation, balancing privacy and natural light according to your preferences.
Composite doors are celebrated for their robustness and longevity. The amalgamation of materials ensures these doors can withstand harsh weather conditions without warping, fading, or cracking — common issues with wooden and PVC doors. The maintenance-free aspect appeals to homeowners looking for longevity without the hassle of regular upkeep.
Security is a paramount feature of composite doors, equipped with sophisticated locking mechanisms, including multi-point locks that ensure a high level of protection against intruders. The solid construction also contributes to the door’s overall strength, making it a formidable barrier.
Beyond their immediate benefits to homeowners, composite doors also have a positive environmental impact. Their enhanced insulation properties contribute to lower energy consumption, aligning with eco-friendly living principles. By choosing a composite door, you’re not only securing your home but also making a sustainable choice.

Aluminium tends to be stronger than UPVC. That means that aluminium windows can have a slimmer appearance and a larger glass surface area due to the strength of the frames. Because they are so popular with commercial and public buildings like schools, offices and government buildings, they are the windows of choice.
Aluminium is often considered to be the material of choice for buildings that need to be highly durable and long-lasting. It has the highest level of thermal insulation so is popular with companies such as the NHS and schools. However, uPVC windows are becoming increasingly popular because they are far more environmentally friendly.
In the past, yellowing or greying was known to occur over time, but with the advancement of technology and better-quality materials being used in uPVC manufacturing, this is no longer a problem.
Which windows are better? When choosing windows for your home, uPVC are usually the best option for both style and value. Wood windows may seem more attractive because of their natural appearance but uPVC are far more energy-efficient and cost-effective.
When you’re choosing a uPVC window, you’ll want to check to see what kind of profile is being used to build the window. Also look at the strength of the frame and the reinforcement in the glass. The higher-quality windows have reinforced glass and stronger frames.
Many professionals agree that if homeowners can afford it, they are better off replacing all their windows at once. Installing all your windows at once makes it easier for the installers to keep on track, making sure they finish all the work on the same day. It also reduces the chances for mistakes and makes the project more efficient.
