Reasons To Buy A Composite Door And What It Is

Composite doors are in competition with UPVC and aluminium doors and you may be unaware of how they differ from those two products. Basically, they utilise a mix of materials.

The precise constituents of a composite door are a solid timber or high-density foam core, insulating foam, timber, UPVC and GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skin. Affixed to the rigid frame is a multi-point locking mechanism.

Uniting various materials and meshing them together makes composite door frames unbelievably robust, thermally efficient and weather resistant. It also simplifies maintenance.

Evidence has shown that a well-made and well-fitted composite door with proven weatherproofing can prolong for 25-35 years.

Does My Home Suit A Composite Door?

The answer lies in what you want a new door to deliver.

It will be worth pursuing if you’re searching for a door that offers high-grade security, energy efficiency and low maintenance. UPVC doors generally cost a bit less, but composite doors shouldn’t be viewed as expensive for what you get.

Their strength arises from the inclusion of a solid timber or engineered wood core, and they manage to effectively preserve warmth and curb draughts thanks to the insulating foam or core material. The GRP skin can resist weathering and warping.

Can It Reduce My Energy Bills?

You bet it will! Insulation is a highlight benefit of a composite door, and its multi-layered composition is responsible for that, restricting heat loss and draughts from outside.

Security will be majorly ramped up once you exchange your old door for a composite solution too, as the multi-point lock will drastically minimise the possibility of a break-in happening.

From the time it’s installed to the day it finally requires replacing, a composite’s colour hue will stay vibrant and devoid of wear and tear.
