Which door is more beneficial to my home? Composite, Aluminium or PVCu 

Let’s start things off with Composite doors 

Composite doors are renowned for their vibrant colours, strong structures and bespoke designs. However, their downside – their hefty price tag.  But, why do they come with such a large bill? Well, for a one-off price, you will receive endless benefits! 

One of their most significant benefits is their ability to conserve heat inside of your home. Due to their structure, draught will be eliminated, cold air will stop entering your home, and cosy, warm temperatures will remain inside. Ultimately this means you will see a reduction in your heating bills. No longer will you have to turn up the dial to compensate for escaping temperatures. Instead of pennies being thrown out off the door, they can be saved up!

So, whether you have a dated or contemporary home, composite doors effectively make your property stand out. Your visitors, neighbours or passersby are sure to be impressed. If you’re willing to pay more for superb quality – a composite door is the best entry for you. 

So, what about Aluminium doors? How good are they?​
