Why Buy Composite Front Doors from Emerald Doors?

Warm and Energy Efficient

A GRP skin over an insulating foam core helps keep heat in and cold out, so composite doors typically reach low U-values and help cut energy bills.

Secure by Design

Multipoint locking comes as standard, and many composite doors are tested to PAS 24, the security standard recommended by the police and required for new builds.

Low Maintenance

No sanding, no repainting. A composite front door only needs an occasional wipe with soapy water and a little lubrication on the locks and hinges.

Colour That Lasts

Choose from a wide range of colours in woodgrain or smooth finishes, with pre-pigmented GRP skins that resist fading far better than painted timber.

Weatherproof and Tough

Composite doors will not warp, swell, or rot like timber, and the high-impact skin shrugs off the knocks of daily family use.

10 Year Guarantee

Every composite front door is backed by our conditional 10-year guarantee against faulty materials or workmanship.

FAQ About Composite Front Doors

What is a composite front door?

A composite front door is made from several materials bonded together, usually a tough GRP outer skin, an insulating foam core, and a reinforced frame. This mix gives you the look of timber with better security, insulation, and weather resistance.

How much do composite front doors cost?

Composite front doors typically cost between £500 and £1,500, depending on size, design, and additional features. Basic models start around $1,000, while custom or high-end options can reach or exceed $3,500. Installation costs are usually extra.

Are composite front doors more secure than uPVC or timber?

Generally yes. Composite doors use a solid core, reinforced frame, and multipoint locking, and many are tested to PAS 24. They resist forced entry better than standard uPVC or a timber door with a basic latch.

Are composite doors energy efficient?

Yes. The insulating foam core and GRP skin make composite doors thermally efficient, typically reaching low U-values, which helps keep your home warm and your heating bills down.

What colours and finishes do composite front doors come in?

We offer a wide range of colours in both realistic woodgrain and smooth modern finishes. The colour runs through a pre-pigmented GRP skin, so it resists fading and never needs repainting.

Do composite front doors need much maintenance?

Very little. A wipe with warm, soapy water keeps the door looking fresh, and a little lubrication on the locks and hinges every few months keeps everything working smoothly. No painting or staining required.

Can composite front doors be glazed or have side panels?

Yes. Choose from decorative glazing options, and add matching glazed or solid side panels and a top light to create a wider, brighter entrance.

Can I get a composite front door made to measure?

Yes. We make composite doors to measure for non-standard openings, with your choice of style, colour, glazing, and hardware. See our custom external doors collection.

How long do composite front doors last?

A well-looked-after composite door can last for decades. Because GRP does not rot, warp or fade like timber, and needs little upkeep, it holds its looks and performance for many years.
