Composite doors
48 styles from traditional to contemporary, in a wide choice of colours — usually out and in the same day.
About composite doors
A composite door is a solid core with a moulded skin, which is why it insulates far better than a hollow UPVC door and doesn't warp, fade or need painting. It's what we fit on most front doors.

The range runs from traditional panelled and stable doors through to flat contemporary styles, all with high-quality locking mechanisms and precision construction. We bring the samples out so you can hold the colour against the brickwork before deciding.

Door styles
48 styles across the classic, contemporary and cottage ranges, plus matching side panels and French doors, all made to your opening. Every one can be finished in any of the colours above, with the glass, the handle and the letterplate picked to match.
Classic
Panelled and part-glazed doors that suit a traditional frontage.
Contemporary & urban
Long glazing bars, bar handles and flatter faces for a more modern elevation.
Cottage & solid
Solid and cottage-style doors, including stable doors and grille designs.
Side panels
A glazed side panel fills a wider opening without making the door itself oversized. Matched to the door style and colour.
French doors
The same composite construction and locking as the front door, in a pair — with one or two side panels if the opening takes them.
We bring the full brochure and colour samples to the survey so you can see the finish against your own brickwork.
Door furniture
Knockers, letterplates and handles in chrome, satin, black, antique bronze and gold — picked at the survey to suit the door and the house.
Common questions
How long does it take to fit a front door?
Normally we take the old door out and fit the new one the same day. We'd confirm that at the survey so there are no surprises.
How long does it take to fit bifold doors?
If the bifolds are replacing French or sliding doors in the same size opening, that's usually a single day. The survey will confirm what's involved and you'll get an accurate timescale from it.
How secure are your doors?
All our doors come with either Yale or Ultion locks, with guarantees against break-in attacks on the property. Many of our products are Secured by Design accredited — the official UK police initiative for designing out crime.
What happens to my old door?
We remove it and take it away, to recycling where possible and disposed of properly where not.
Will I need planning permission?
Not usually, unless the building is listed. If you're in a conservation area or other designated area, check with your local planning authority before ordering.
What guarantees do you offer?
All our windows and doors come with a comprehensive 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, so the cover outlasts the invoice. Roofing and building work carries its own guarantee, and ProPERLA coatings come with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee on top of ours.
Do you really do all of this yourselves?
Yes. Windows, doors, roofing, building work, electrics and coatings are all our own teams. That's the point of the business — one contract and one point of contact, rather than you co-ordinating five firms and absorbing the gaps between them.
How long does a full house of windows take?
It depends on the number and style, but as a rule a whole house of eight to ten windows is fitted in one to two days. We survey first and manufacture every frame to the exact size of the opening, which keeps time on site down.
