In recent years for example, composite doors have steadily grown in popularity here in the UK. Available in a variety of different colours and styles, modern composite doors combine the visually appealing aesthetics of a traditional timber door with heightened security and energy efficiency.
Perhaps most pertinent, composite doors boast a long lifespan with minimal maintenance while also effortlessly enhancing the kerb appeal of your property. So what is a composite door? And how can it be used to create a grand entrance for your home?
What is a composite door?
Composite doors can create a beautiful grand entrance and as a result, have become increasingly popular in the UK in recent years. Engineered to have the appearance of a traditional timber door, composite doors are manufactured with a number of different modern materials for the purpose of increased durability and strength. Featuring a resilient timber core and thermoplastic skin, composite doors are revered for offering heightened security from both the elements and the likes of any unwelcome intruders.
Requiring very little maintenance and excellent longevity spanning at least 35 years, a composite door is suitable for any accessway but is particularly suited to the front of your home for a little extra kerb appeal. Combined with new windows engineered from uPVC or aluminium, composite doors can bring your home together and create an elegant yet effortless look.
The benefits of a composite door
Suitable in both historical and contemporary properties alike, a composite door offers a number of different benefits for the modern homeowner.
- Attractive – Arguably one of the most attractive features of a composite door is its visually appealing aesthetic. Whatever colour, style and/or hardware you choose, your composite door will remain in tip-top shape as a result of high-quality engineering and a protective thermoplastic coating.
- Energy efficient – The thermal performance of composite doors is second to none. In fact, when engineered to a high standard, composite doors boast incredible energy efficiency and thermal retention ratings. As a result, replacing your older style entranceway with a more modern composite door can dramatically decrease your energy consumption and save you the hassle of costly utility bills.
- Secure – With a resilient timber core and modern multi-point locking mechanisms, composite doors offer heightened security against both adverse weather and the likes of unwelcome intruders. In fact, Endurance composite doors have even been proven to withstand repeated attacks with a sledgehammer.
- Customisable – Composite doors are fully customisable, meaning the end result will be truly unique to your home. Available in a variety of bold, beautiful colours and different styles with plenty of hardware to choose from, your composite door will be engineered to your exact specifications.
