First impressions are everything! Our guide to Composite Door styles

It's true what they say - first impressions count, and it's no different when it comes to the entrance to your home. Your front door says everything about your homes style & security (not to mention standing out from the neighbours!) and with our range of composite doors there is endless possibilities to truly reflect your individual style.


At Definition, we are proud to supply & install a wide range of composite front doors. From budget-friendly options with enhanced security guarantees - all the way through to bespoke hand-sprayed timber-core composite doors with over 48 colour options. Choosing a composite door can feel overwhelming when there is so much to choose from, but that's why we have our very own online door designer - meaning you can design your door online to ensure it captures everything you desire.

Why choose a Composite Front Door?


Aside from being strong and robust, composite doors also offer a greater range of colour choice than uPVC or timber doors (and require no redecorating, unlike timber). This means you can choose a door in the right colour and style that fits with your home.

In fact, composite doors don’t need regular upkeep to ensure the integrity of the material and there is also no risk of shrinkage as with timber. This gives your door a greater longevity than other materials. Composite Doors are also hugely energy efficient - with the majority of our doors offering up to 8 times more thermal efficiency than a timber door alternative. Our doors all come with a minimum B energy rating certificate.

Last, but certainly not least - if security is a concern then rest assured composite doors are the right choice for you. Composite Doors come with a steel reinforced frame making them extremely secure, along with multi-point locking mechanisms, anti-snap cylinders and Secured by Design accreditation. A wide range of our doors also come with a £2,000 ULTION 3-star locking guarantee for 10 years - ask us for more information about this when enquiring about your front door.

Take a look at some of our favourite contemporary & classic composite door styles below and see which best suits your home!

 

1. Classic meets contemporary sophistication


If you're looking to retain traditional features but desire a modern twist, look no further than this Solidor Ludlow combination, shown here with twin composite sidelights. Finished beautifully with satin etched glass and a bold chrome doctor knocker and door knob combo, this entrance is subtle yet striking and will leave your house standing out from the crowd.

 

2. Ultra-modern urban


In composite door world, there's nothing more state-of-the-art and modern than a front door from the Virtuoso Virtu-Al range. Virtu-AL is the ultimate contemporary entrance door. Combining the finest qualities of a composite door with the premium finish of an aluminium entrance door, it is fast becoming the architect’s product of choice. These doors suit a range of properties, but especially those with a monochromatic colour scheme & minimal ornamentation.

 

3. Cosy country-side cottage


If you're lucky enough to have a home in the beautiful English countryside, then you'll want to make sure that your front-door replicates lots of heritage features. This simple yet smart composite door replicates a 1930's traditional cottage-style timber door but has the energy and durability benefits of a modern day door. Complete with black antique furniture and finished in a muted Chartwell Green tone, this understated door can be teamed up with a choice of patterned or stained glass options to further add to it's eloquent looks.

 

4. Period-style Victorian splendour


If you're living in period property with distinctive architectural style, such as Victorian, Georgian or Edwardian characteristics, then you'll likely lean towards a composite front door from a more traditional range to ensure you carry through the heritage aesthetic. With these property types, we find that pretty much all classic front door styles are suited, but it's more how you style your new front door that counts. For example, adding stained/patterned glass, antique furniture suites and bespoke heritage colours all contribute to leaving a perfectly timeless finish - so don't be fooled into thinking you need to have a timber hardwood door, as a composite door can give you the same effect too with the added benefit of increased thermal efficiency and durability.
