Its exact ingredients include a solid timber or high-density foam core, insulating foam, timber, UPVC and a GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skin, complemented with a multipoint lock.
All these combined materials give a composite door incredible strength and energy efficiency, as well as weather-resistance. Maintenance requirements are very low too.
On average, they last for 25-35 years, so long as theyโre well-constructed, well-installed and offer excellent weatherproofing.
Is A Composite Door Right For My Home?
That all depends on what you want from an entryway.
If itโs high-grade security, energy efficiency and low maintenance, this door type is for you. While itโs a bit more expensive than a UPVC door, its performance justifies the extra cost.
The toughness stems from its solid timber or engineered wood core, with the insulating foam or core material responsible for conserving warmth indoors and halting the infiltration of draughts. Warping and weathering will be resisted by the GRP skin.
Will It Cut My Energy Costs?
Almost certainly, yes. Insulation is one of the main assets of a composite door and being multi-layered has a lot to do with it, curbing heat loss and cold air coming through.
Your security will be improved too, as it has a multi-point locking mechanism that engages at numerous points, virtually eliminating the possibility of a break-in occurring.
No kind of wear and tear will establish over time, with the coloured finish guaranteed to display the same vibrancy years on from its installation.
