27 Feb Our composite doors last longer with less maintenance

When buying a front door, people want something that is beautiful, strong and does not need constant fixing or repainting. Nobody wants a door that fades, cracks or breaks easily, and this is why more and more homeowners in Cardiff are now buying composite doors. 

Composite doors last longer because of their structure.

Composite doors are stronger than regular doors because they are made with multiple layers of materials, including Glass Reinforced Plastic (“GRP”), uPVC, timber, and an insulating core. This combination of materials makes the doors more resistant to damage from weather, bumps, and general use. The structure of composite doors also helps keep your home warm and quiet by blocking out cold air and noise.

The outer layer of composite doors is GRP, which is what makes these doors resistant to cracking, warping, or fading. No matter what the weather looks like outside, your composite door will retain its shape and colour.

You will never have to repaint, sand, or varnish a composite door.

Wooden doors demand a lot of maintenance to look good— repainting, sanding, sealing, and doing it all over again every few years. And if you ignore these maintenance chores, the door can fade, swell, or even rot.

With composite doors, you don’t have to worry about any of that. Their UV-resistant finish protects the surface against fading and peeling, even after years in the sun and rain. You will never need to paint or varnish a composite door. Just get a wet cloth, wipe your door with it and that’s basically it.

Composite doors do not absorb water or lose their shape.

Unlike wooden doors that absorb water and swell, composite doors do not soak up moisture and stay perfectly shaped. There is also no risk of rotting, and your door will open and close smoothly without getting stuck.

Composite doors are scratch and stain-resistant.

Because they experience daily use, front doors can easily get scratches, dents, or stains. Composite doors are made to be scratch and stain-resistant. Their GRP surface does not soak up dirt or grease, and they are easy to keep clean for longer. 

Composite doors are stronger than regular uPVC and wooden doors.

Their security features are another reason why people choose composite doors in Cardiff. Wooden doors can get weaker over time, and uPVC doors can dent if hit hard enough. In comparison, composite doors are built to resist heavy impacts and make forced entry a lot harder. They also come with multi-point locks, which give them even better protection against break-ins.
