Composite Doors
in Glasgow,
solid to the core.

Most composite front doors we fit cost between £950 and £2,200 installed, and that covers taking out the old door, disposal and certification. Colour, glass, hardware and side panels all move the figure. A surveyor measures up for free anywhere in Glasgow, and the clear quote that follows carries no obligation. Various deposit options are available.

For a front door, most people decide it is. Composite has a solid insulated core where uPVC is hollow-chambered, so it is heavier, more secure and warmer, and a composite door is six times more insulating than timber. It also comes in far more colours and styles. uPVC costs less and is a sound choice for a back or side door, and we fit both, so ask for both prices at the survey.

Every composite door we fit is tested to PAS 24, the British standard for resisting forced entry. The locking is multi-point, with hooks and bolts, and the cylinder is a 3-star Kitemarked anti-snap type. Wherever you choose glass, it is laminated security glazing.

No. Timber swells when it takes on water, which is why so many older Glasgow doors jam in a wet January. The GRP skin on a composite door does not soak up rain, so the door will not swell, warp or need planing, and the fit stays the same all year round.

Yes. Main-door tenement flats and the four-in-a-block cottage flats in areas such as Knightswood, Mosspark and Cardonald are routine work for us. Openings in older buildings are rarely standard or square, which is why every door is made to measure from the surveyor's figures. If a factor or a neighbour has a say in how the door looks, agree that before you order and we will give you the details they need.

There are over 200 colour and glass combinations. Anthracite grey, chartwell green, duck egg blue, cream and black are popular picks, and the inside face can be a different colour from the outside. Hardware comes in chrome, gold, black and antique finishes. For a sandstone or period frontage, ask to see the Heritage composite range as well.

The installers arrive in the morning, take out the old door and frame, then fit and seal the new set, add the hardware and glass, and show you how the locks work before they go. It is one working day for most doors, and you are not left with an open doorway overnight.
