Not all composite doors are built the same. This is an important consideration when weighing up your options for a new front door. It’s important to understand what’s inside a composite door, rather than just focusing on appearance. Many homeowners mistakenly focus on style and colour but overlook core construction.
Different core materials in composite doors can affect their strength, security, durability and overall feel. To help you make a more informed purchasing decision, we’ll compare foam-filled composite doors with Endurance’s solid timber core doors.
Endurance’s Solid Timber Core – A Deep Dive
Endurance composite doors feature a 48mm solid timber core. As a result, homeowners may notice a more solid feel in operation than other composite doors, as well as an enhanced sense of security, more robust day-to-day performance and long-term durability.
Their solid core construction adds to the premium feel of an Endurance door. They deliver strong thermal efficiency, are highly weather-resistant and provide everyday comfort inside your home.
Endurance doors combine this strength with style. We offer a range of collections, with a wide variety of colours, glazing options and hardware finishes, allowing you to create a door that feels truly your own.
