23 Jan The Palladio monocoque design sets a new standard in composite doors

Not all doors are the same. Some doors are so flimsy that they barely keep the wind out and can make your home cold and draughty. Others look like they belong in a garden shed instead of the first thing people see when they visit your home. But then there is the Palladio composite door range, which not only raises the bar for composite doors but shatters it completely.

What makes Palladio doors so special is their monocoque design. If you are checking out some composite doors in Cardiff, this is the one feature that you will want to look for.

The integrated monocoque structure is why Palladio doors outperform traditional composite doors.

Most composite doors are made by stacking and layering different materials together. This can create weak points where the layers join, and over time, these weak points can culminate in problems like warping and splitting and can even make the door easier to break into. Obviously, that is not what you want from your front door.

The monocoque design changes all of this. Instead of being made from layers, the door is made as a single, integrated shell. This one-piece design creates a structure that is extremely strong but not very heavy.

Because the door is made as one solid piece, there are no weak points that can warp or crack over time or where someone could force their way in. And with their high-security locks, it is safe to say these doors will keep out everything you don’t want inside your home.

Palladio doors offer industry-leading energy efficiency.

When heating their homes, what many people don’t realise is how much heat can escape through an old, poorly insulated front door. Well, Palladio’s monocoque design is very efficient at keeping heat inside your home. These doors have U-values as low as 0.205, which is one of the best ratings you will find for composite doors.

These doors also feature a double rebate system. This is basically an extra layer of insulation that stops draughts from coming inside through the door and keeps your home warm and comfortable.

These doors are made to be stylish, low-maintenance, and resistant to fading or damage.

Palladio doors come with true-to-life oak grain finishes that can add timeless beauty to traditional homes. But if you want something more modern that would complement your home, you can also find some more trendy colour options. And since these doors are UV- and impact-resistant, they will not fade or get damaged over the years, even if exposed to harsh sunlight or heavy use.

It is also worth mentioning their triple-glazed glass units, which are as much a design element as they are a practical feature. With decorative options and beautiful sandblasted finishes, you can further customise your composite door to match exactly how you imagine it in your head.
