Finding the perfect front door for your home is not an easy task. The external door plays an important role, setting the tone to your property as well as being crucial for security and energy efficiency. Composite doors should fully meet your expectations in these terms and many others.
What are composite doors made of?
A composite door is made of several materials. Around the timber core, you will find durable layers of uPVC and other fully weatherproof materials. They protect the inner wood framing from wind, rain and cold. That makes your composite door not only durable, but also helps it to retain its appearance for longer. Composite doors are able to perform for decades without wearing down, warping or fading, with the design remaining untouched as well.
Each of the materials used in production plays an important role in the construction of composite doors. A sturdy timber core gives the design its strength and improves thermal insulation. That is very essential in terms of energy efficiency.
In poor weather conditions, uPVC layers and profiles protect the timber underneath from cracking, warping and rotting over time. As a result, composite doors have a longer lifespan than wooden doors. The average lifespan for a composite door is a minimum of 30 years. What is more, uPVC is highly versatile when it comes to design. That means you can order doors in various colours and styles, uniquely designed for your home.
As far as additional layers protecting the timber core are concerned, uPVC is the most common, but not the only material in use. Lamination layers often add more strength and help to retain more of the heat. Alternatively, some composite doors have a GRP coating, which is incredibly resilient.
What are the benefits of composite doors?
Composite doors are soaring in popularity. One of the reasons is the fact that they can easily meet different needs and expectations. There is far more room for customisation options, which results in both traditional and modern designs. By installing a composite door, you will get an entrance that has an authentic timber appearance coupled with modern performance. Regardless of the colour and style you choose, you will not have to clean your door regularly or repaint them. The colour will last for decades and is not going to fade in the sun.
Another benefit of a composite door is security. The door will protect your home from burglars and intruders. Most composite doors have multi-point locking mechanisms and durable handles, preventing burglars from finding an easy way in. Due to a solid timber core and durable external layers, they are also impact-resistant. Composite doors are almost impossible to break or destroy, and that makes them very effective in protecting access to the property they guard.
Last but not least, installing a composite door in your home results in better thermal insulation. With the durable structure of the door coupled with gaskets, cold air struggles to enter your home, as warm air does not escape easily. As a result, you can enjoy a warmer living space with less energy required to maintain a comfortable temperature inside. Your composite door will help you to save money on energy bills as well as reduce your carbon footprint.
