Frequently Asked Questions
new Front Doors
Given the ongoing rise in energy prices, installing a new composite front door presents an effective solution for reducing household energy expenses.
The dense cores of composite external doors contribute to their insulating properties, which result in high thermal efficiency and the potential to achieve A+ energy ratings. As a result, energy loss is reduced, and indoor temperatures can be maintained more consistently.
Exceptionally durable, these products provide reliable protection for your home against various weather conditions and require minimal maintenance.
With all these benefits, it is no wonder that composite doors have emerged as the most popular entrance door in the UK.
If a door becomes difficult to open or close, replacement might be necessary. Experiencing a door that sticks during winter but operates smoothly in summer can indicate energy inefficiency.
A composite door consists of multiple materials. The core is made from timber, which provides structural strength. Additionally, wood serves as an insulator, reducing the amount of chilly air that can pass through the door.
Accordingly, external composite doors incorporate multiple layers to safeguard the internal timber. uPVC is the most prevalent material used; it offers a highly adaptable design with excellent resistance to weather conditions. Even in adverse climates, uPVC profiles maintain their appearance for extended periods, effectively shielding the underlying timber from issues such as cracking, warping, and rot over time.
Depending on the type of external composite front door selected, additional materials may be included in the design. Lamination layers can increase structural strength and contribute to thermal retention within a home, potentially reducing energy costs. Some composite front doors contain a GRP coating, which stands for glass-reinforced plastic and is known for its durability.
A wooden front door will need a lot more maintenance such as varnishing and painting otherwise they tend to warp and become a lot less energy efficient. Unless cared for they will look old and aged very quickly compared to a front composite door.
