Specification Notes from Current Manufacturer Supply Pathways

  • GRP and timber-core composite pathways are both available, with final choice based on appearance goals, security priorities and budget.
  • Typical whole-door thermal pathways target around 1.4 W/m2K, with selected upgraded builds achieving lower values by specification.
  • Composite slabs commonly sit in the mid-40mm range, with selected premium options built thicker for added rigidity and feel.
  • Standard, low and mobility threshold formats are available on selected systems, including Part M focused options where opening width allows.
  • PAS 24 focused routes can include laminated glazing and enhanced cylinder and hardware packages where project briefs require.
  • Final performance depends on slab construction, glazing cassette, frame build, threshold detail and installation quality.

Final project performance depends on opening size, slab construction, glazing build-up, threshold selection and installation quality.

Security and Compliance Priorities

Security planning starts with practical everyday protection, then scales to enhanced specification routes where risk profile or compliance targets require more.

Locking and reinforcement detail used in security-focused door planning

Multi-Point Locking as Core Specification

Composite entrance systems are typically configured with full-height locking engagement and reinforced keeps for stronger resistance at key points.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to common planning, specification and installation questions before you commit.

Are composite doors better than standard uPVC entrance doors?

Composite doors are usually chosen for stronger slab construction, broader design flexibility and premium-feel hardware options. uPVC can still be a practical route for lower upfront budgets. We help you compare both during survey.

Can I choose from both GRP and solid-core composite pathways?

Yes. We can scope both pathways depending on security targets, finish preferences and budget. Final recommendations are made after measuring your opening and reviewing your brief.

What thermal performance can I expect from a new composite door?

Many current pathways target around 1.4 W/m2K, with lower values available on selected upgraded specifications. Real-world outcomes depend on slab build, glazing detail and installation quality.

Do composite doors support PAS 24 and Document Q pathways?

Yes. Where required, we can review hardware, glazing and lock upgrades that align with PAS 24 and Document Q focused project requirements.

Are low or mobility thresholds available?

Yes, on selected systems. We review floor levels, access priorities and weather exposure to confirm the most suitable threshold option for your property.

How long does a composite door project usually take?

Lead times vary by specification and finish. After survey, we provide a clear schedule covering manufacture, installation day and final handover so expectations stay clear.
