Composite Doors
A front door is more than just an entrance; it’s the first handshake your home offers to the world. It protects, welcomes, and sets the tone for everything that lies within. In recent years, composite doors have become the go-to choice for UK homeowners who want more than just a barrier between inside and out. They’ve earned their reputation by combining strength, efficiency, and style into one seamless package.
Think of a composite door as the modern-day equivalent of a knight’s armour — robust on the outside, designed to withstand any challenge, yet carefully crafted for comfort and protection. Whether you’re looking to boost your home’s security, cut down on draughts, or simply give your property a stylish new look, a composite door can deliver on all fronts.
At Doorland, we’ve seen the transformation first hand. From Victorian terraces in need of a sympathetic replacement to new-build homes looking for a modern statement piece, composite doors offer a solution that blends practicality with curb appeal.

Why Choose a Composite Door?
If you’ve ever stood in front of a traditional timber door during a winter storm, you’ll know the frustrations — swelling wood, cold draughts sneaking through the frame, and paint that needs constant upkeep. uPVC doors solved some of these problems, but they often lacked the sturdiness and style many homeowners wanted. Composite doors were designed to bridge that gap, bringing together the best qualities of each material.
Picture them as a recipe: the dense timber core provides natural strength, the insulating foam layers trap warmth like a thick winter coat, and the outer GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) skin acts like a waterproof shield, shrugging off rain, wind, and sun without complaint. The result? A door that doesn’t just last but thrives under the unpredictable British weather.

Key Features & Benefits
Superior Security
Your front door is the first line of defence for your home, and with a composite door, it’s built like a fortress.
Multi-point locking systems, thick engineered cores, and reinforced frames mean composite doors are significantly harder to force open compared to timber or uPVC. Most quality models meet PAS 24 standards and many are approved by the Secured by Design scheme — the official police initiative for safer homes (Secured by Design).

Thermal Efficiency
Composite doors act like a thermal blanket for your property, with insulating foam layers and dense cores designed to stop heat escaping.
According to Ofgem, the average UK household spent £1,928 on energy in 2024. A well-fitted composite door with a low U-value can reduce heat loss, saving money year after year while cutting your carbon footprint.
Built to Last
The GRP skin is the same durable material used in boat hulls, designed to resist warping, cracking, and fading.
Think of it as the stone wall to timber’s wooden fence — one weathers decades with strength, while the other needs constant upkeep.

Frequently Asked Questions..
How long does a composite door last?
A well-made composite door can last 30 years or more with minimal maintenance. Thanks to its GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) skin and engineered core, it resists warping, swelling, and cracking far better than timber or uPVC doors.
Are composite doors more secure than uPVC or timber doors?
Yes. Composite doors are widely considered the most secure domestic doors available. They feature multi-point locking systems, reinforced frames, and thicker cores. Many models meet PAS 24 standards and are approved by Secured by Design, the official UK police initiative.
What maintenance does a composite door need?
Maintenance is very simple. A composite door only needs to be wiped down with a damp cloth occasionally. There’s no need for repainting, sanding, or varnishing. Hinges and locks should be lubricated once a year for smooth operation.
Do composite doors fade, warp, or discolour over time?
No — unlike timber, composite doors are designed to resist the elements. The GRP outer skin is UV-resistant, which prevents fading, and it won’t warp or twist with changes in temperature. Colours and finishes remain vivid for decades.
How energy efficient are composite doors compared to other options?
Composite doors are highly energy efficient, with low U-values that help reduce heat loss. Their insulating foam cores and tight seals mean they outperform most uPVC and timber doors. Over time, this can help reduce heating bills and keep your home more comfortable.
Can I customise the colour and glazing of my composite door?
Yes. Composite doors are available in dozens of colours, from heritage shades to bold modern finishes. You can also choose decorative or frosted glazing, and even opt for dual-colour designs (one colour inside, another outside) to match both your interior and exterior style.
What is the average cost of a composite door in the UK?
Composite doors typically cost between £650 – £1800 for supply-only and £1,100 – £2,800 fully fitted, depending on the design, hardware, and glazing options. Premium aluminium-skinned composite doors may exceed £2,000 or £3,000.
Do composite doors come with a guarantee or warranty?
Most composite doors come with a minimum 10-year guarantee, covering the structure, colour stability, and hardware. Many suppliers, including Doorland, offer extended guarantees for added peace of mind.
Can I install a composite door myself, or should I use a professional fitter?
Composite doors can be supplied for DIY fitting, but correct installation is crucial for performance. Any misalignment can affect insulation and security. For best results, we recommend using a professional fitter, ensuring the door operates smoothly and achieves full security ratings.
Are composite doors environmentally friendly or recyclable?
Yes. Composite doors are long-lasting, which reduces the need for frequent replacements and waste. Many are made using recyclable materials, and some manufacturers are now producing doors that can be fully recycled at the end of their life.
