To replace my current back door and surround.
Are you looking to replace your front door? There are several options available to you but none quite as preferred as composite doors. So why is this type of doorway the nation’s most popular and why should you consider it for your own home?
There are several reasons to pick out a composite door. First of all they look fantastic and there's a wide variety of choice both in design and style to pick from. If you would like a modern day overall appeal you'll be able to get precisely that, with contemporary designs to go together with the times. But if you prefer the charm of standard front doors, you can also find Victorian, Georgian and Edwardian designs from which to choose.
Moreover you are able to select a colour that properly suits your home. Whether you choose a traditional white or black front door, or might have a preference for the daring red, blue or green, the ultimate decision is yours.
But how about the composite door’s additional features? Together with a strong visual appeal, you take advantage of great insulation and a robust, resistant installation. The construction of the door helps ensure heat is unable to pass thorough and leave your house, cutting down your expensive energy expenses.
Composite doorways are produced to withstand impacts and the weather too, lasting for decades with essentially no upkeep. A GRP (Glass reinforced plastic) skin helps you to protect the front door making sure it continues to look great for years to come.
The average cost of Composite front doors is £950. Costs alter based upon the materials and the firm chosen. The upper price range can be as high as £1092.5. The material costs are normally about £237.5

• Remove the existing door by rounding up the door frame firstly with a knife to reduce the possible damage to the wall.
• Cut through the door jambs.
• Remove each in two separate sections.
• Ensure the opening is level without any screws, mastic and filler.
lAlign Your Composite Door
• Ensure the sill of the door is level and flat.
• Make sure the frame is square and plumb in both planes.
• Bridge the cavity of the wall and cover the DPC
• Ensure that the frame is square. If not, your composite door won’t function as it should.
lInstall Your Composite Door
• Place the door in the frame.
• Hold the frame firmly in position with wedge packers
• Make sure the packers are positioned close to where the fixing will be placed.

Do you have a composite door and wondering the best type of lock that can be used on your prized asset. To choose the right type of lock for a composite door, it’s of utmost importance to select one that’s designed to work perfectly with the composite configuration. By doing this, you’ll improve the security of your home while also achieving the desired look. To secure a composite door, the most common way is by incorporating a high security multipoint lock. Therefore, depending on the look you want for your door as well as how you want it to function, here are the four types of locks you can consider to go with your composite door.
• Split Spindle Lock
A split spindle lock would be your best bet if you’d like to automatically prevent access to your home from the outside. This lock allows you to open your door smoothly by utilizing the inside handle, however, you’ll need a key to turn the latch bolt to gain access back inside.
• Lever or Lever Lock
If you want an unhindered access in and out of your property, a lever lock gives you this opportunity without the need for a key until it’s totally deadlocked. The lever lock is installed to the back door which makes unauthorized entry even less likely.
• Slam Lock
If you’d prefer a super fast locking, then this lock type is your answer! It automatically triggers the lock hooks immediately you close the door - without having to lift the handle. However, to gain access to the inside of your home or bolt the door from the inside, you’ll need a key.
• Key Wind-Up Lock
This lock is wholly key operated and totally handle-free. Immediately the door is closed, the latch bolt will be automatically activated, ensuring that a key would be needed to gain access back inside.
Unlike several other complex multi choice products, composite door prices are no great mystery. However, it all depends on your personal preferences as well as your budget. There are a variety of customization options and extras, so you can easily select one that’s unique to your home. Composite doors offer you more colours, more styles, a greater choice of accessories as well as more glazing options. With the availability of a plethora of options in the market, it’s very hard to provide a precise price for a composite door as all the options play a significant role in the price structure.
• The Door’s Quality
Composite doors commonly comes with either a CFC-free insulating polyurethane (PU) foam or a laminated hardwood core. The price to be paid will depend on the quality of the composite with the laminated hardwood core being of more quality and ultimately, more expensive.
• Glazing Options
Between a coloured leaded glass double panel and a clear double-glazed panel there’s a huge price difference. And within these two extremes, there are also many other variables.
• Accessories
There are a world of choices when it comes to accessories in terms of the handle styles, letterplates, knockers and more. All playing a role in the price of the composite door.
• Locking System
A common feature of several composite doors is the multi point locking systems. However, the price, choice and security of the lock cylinder can be hugely different which also play a part in the price of the composite door.
• Location
Your geographical location plays an even more important part when you’re having your door installed. For instance, delivery in certain areas in the UK or finding tradesmen comes at a premium which is also shown in the price.
When it comes to the installation of an external door in your home or property, you’ll be indulged with a plethora of styles and options available in the market today. But as you would have imagined, not all of these options and styles are created equal. Not all can match the security and quality standards of a composite door. A door’s quality is greatly influenced by a wide variety of factors such as the materials incorporated as well as the overall design. For instance, going for a door made with low quality materials can as well be synonymous with leaving your door open while going out.
Composite doors are modern type of door used in homes in recent times. They’ve been design to combat the common flaws identified in singular material doors. The door puts together a perfect mix of materials which have been singled out due to their beneficial properties and effectively taps out the “old flaws. Composite doors are known to be highly resistant to weather conditions, no matter how extreme and unlike singular material doors, it does not react quickly to seasonal changes. And as a result of the insulating foam core of composite doors, they possess a higher thermal resistance than wooden doors.
Generally, a composite door is designed in such a way that makes it look as a wooden door featuring a very alluring wood grain. With the exceptional quality of the materials incorporated, the colours won’t fade, no discolouration will take place and ultimately, it doesn’t require much more than wiping with a damp cloth when it’s dirty as maintenance activity. In conclusion, composite doors are greatly designed modern doors which are manufactured using various materials. The premium quality provided by composite doors is unrivalled in the door industry.
