Service overview
Why composite is now the default premium front door
A composite door is a solid, layered door — a GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) or timber-faced skin bonded to a high-density insulated core, with a reinforced structural frame. The result is a door that reads and feels far more substantial than uPVC and requires none of the maintenance of timber.
It's the right service for anyone replacing a tired uPVC or timber front door, upgrading kerb appeal, buying a house that lost its 'first-impression' door decades ago, or specifying a robust rear or side entrance where security matters.
You need a proper installer because a composite door is heavy. Frame packing, hinge specification, threshold bedding and multi-point lock alignment all decide whether the door still closes cleanly in year five. Our fitting team does this every week.
The cost of leaving it
The reasons people finally replace their front door
Front doors rarely get replaced because they've completely failed — they get replaced because their failures have become daily.
A door that doesn't feel safe
Older doors with single-cam locks and thin skins can be defeated in seconds. Composite doors change that.
The house that looks tired from the road
Nothing dates a house like a faded, chalky, mismatched front door. Nothing lifts it like a well-chosen composite.
Repair bills that add up
Every failed hinge, worn cylinder and re-siliconed threshold on an old door is money spent on a door that still isn't right. Replacement stops the cycle.

In detail
Configurations, colours and hardware
A composite door decision has more variables than any other door type — and each one visibly changes the finished result.
Door styles
Contemporary flush doors, traditional panelled doors, cottage-style doors, and fully glazed rear or garden doors — plus side-panel and top-light configurations for wider apertures.
Colours
Anthracite grey, chartwell green, red, blue, black, white, cream, and wood-effect finishes. Colour is manufactured in; there's nothing to peel or repaint.
Glazing
Toughened decorative panels, obscure privacy patterns, clear vision panels — chosen to match the style and let the right amount of light into the hallway.
Hardware
Chrome, brushed nickel, black, gold and antique brass finishes. Handles, letterplates, knockers, spy-holes and numerals coordinated at survey.
Security spec
Multi-point locking as standard, anti-snap cylinders (TS007 3-star or Kitemarked equivalent) and PAS 24-tested systems available.
Residential vs commercial
Predominantly residential, but composite is also our go-to for HMO front doors, rental portfolios and small commercial entrances where security and low maintenance matter.
Frequently asked
Everything homeowners ask before booking.
How much does a composite door cost?
Depends on size, style, glazing and hardware — fixed itemised quote after a free on-site survey.
How long does installation take?
Single door replacements are usually complete in a day. Configurations with side panels or top lights can take slightly longer.
How secure are composite doors?
Very — multi-point locking, anti-snap cylinders, reinforced frame and thick solid core. PAS 24-rated systems available.
Do they warp or fade?
No — the composite skin holds its shape and colour for decades. Warping is essentially a timber-door problem.
How thermally efficient are they?
Excellent — the insulated core outperforms both uPVC and traditional timber doors on U-values.
Can I match the colour to my windows?
Yes — we colour-coordinate composite doors with existing or newly installed uPVC or aluminium frames.
What guarantee do I get?
10 years on the door and frame, 5 years on the glass, IBG-backed for independent protection.
Can you fit a composite door in an existing aperture?
In almost all cases, yes — we survey the aperture and confirm before quoting. Non-standard apertures are handled with side-panel or top-light configurations.
Do you install composite doors in Newport?
Yes — Newport, Blackwood, Caerphilly, Cwmbran, Ebbw Vale, Pontypool, Tredegar and across Gwent.

uPVC Windows
A uPVC window replacement is a full envelope job, not a swap of the moving parts. We measure the aperture on site, manufacture each frame to the exact opening, then remove your existing windows, prepare the reveals, fit the new units level and plumb, seal them properly inside and out, and hand you the paperwork that keeps the guarantee live.
