Composite Doors with built-in Security and Thermal Efficiency
When choosing a new external door for your home, of course you will want to find one that not only looks great, but suits the look of your home and adds to its style and elegance.
For many years, homeowners relied upon timber doors before upgrading to UPVC doors, which offered improved features. The composite door is a natural evolution, further improving on the security and thermal features of UPVC doors.
Our door composite doors come with proven security features built-in along with the added bonus of helping to keep your home warm thanks to their thermal efficiency features. Making them a far better option than timber doors, UPVC doors and typical GRP doors.
In fact our range of composite doors have consistently been found to be one of the most secure doors available in the UK, with studies showing that a Rockdoor is 35% stronger than a typical GRP door!
What are Composite Doors and Why Should you Choose One?
The phrase ‘composite door’ is now almost synonymous with ‘external doors’ and ‘entrance doors’, which is not surprising considering the fantastic built in strength and security they offer. Not only that, but their resistance to extreme weather conditions, thanks to their thermal insulation properties, ensuring the cold stays out and the warmth stays in your home.
A typical composite door in the UK can be made up of a mixture of materials such as GRP, Timber and PU Foam, all of which aim to reduce the amount of warm air escaping and cold air entering a property. However not all composite doors are built the same!
Rather than using timber which often swells and bows, our composite doors use a high-density core which is 60% stronger than standard composite doors. This is standard across our entire range of composite front doors, back doors, French doors and stable doors.

Over 25 Years of Design and Innovation in our Composite Doors
Each and every composite door is made to measure, not cut to fit. We do this because composite doors can become weaker when they are cut to fit, which is often the reason for external doors weakening.
Unlike some other composite door manufacturers, we don’t use timber in the construction of any of our door ranges because of issues with swelling, twisting and warping.We use a high-density core which is 60% stronger than standard composite doors. This is standard in all of our composite front doors, back doors, French doors and stable doors.
With extras such as steel mesh available to make the door 4 times stronger, you really wouldn’t be able to find a stronger composite door.
A&E Glazing Composite Doors
Hard wearing, yet low maintenance, a composite door can withstand serious wear and tear and the external GRP material is especially resistant to denting, kicks and knocks. The moulded woodgrain skin always looks like a freshly painted wood door. Unlike timber, it won’t crack or peel paint, and unlike UPVC, won’t warp or fade. A quick wash with a cloth will keep your door looking its best. Composite doors should last for at least 35 years with little maintenance.
