Traditionally, doors were found in brown timber or white uPVC, with limited customisation options unless you wanted to paint your frame. While this did make doors stand out, it provided its own issues. Painting uPVC could void any warranty on your product and would often make windows and doors stick, compromising their performance. Timber takes paint better, but it is prone to flaking, chipping, and cracking thanks to the weather damage that timber is prone to.
Thanks to innovations in the home improvement industry, a variety of colours are gaining popularity in UK homes. With our innovative manufacturing process, the colour is part of the weatherproof laminated door skin we apply to your new composite door. This protects your door from potential damage from harsh weather and makes sure your colour will never chip or fade.
But why have coloured composite doors become so popular? We’ve put together a list of reasons why more and more homeowners are opting for vibrant colours for their entrance doors.
Enhanced Aesthetics
Coloured composite doors have gained immense popularity due to their ability to enhance the aesthetics of homes. Unlike traditional timber or uPVC doors, coloured composite doors come in a wide range of colours and finishes, allowing homeowners to choose a door that perfectly complements their home’s style and personality. Whether you prefer a bold and vibrant colour or a more subtle and understated shade, there is a coloured composite door to suit every taste.
Durability and Low Maintenance
Coloured composite doors are renowned for their durability and low maintenance requirements. Unlike timber doors, which can warp, rot, or fade over time, coloured composite doors are made from a combination of materials, including uPVC, and wood. This makes them highly resistant to the elements, ensuring that they will not warp, crack, or fade, even in harsh weather conditions. Additionally, coloured composite doors require minimal maintenance, simply needing a wipe down with a damp cloth to keep them looking their best.
Our colours are applied through a weatherproof PVC skin surrounding the door, which serves a dual purpose. It protects the inner components of your door from being exposed to the elements and risking damage. It also gives you a more durable colour, guaranteeing a vibrant colour long after installation.
Improved Security
Another reason why coloured composite doors are popular is their enhanced security features. These doors are built with security in mind, featuring multi-point locking systems, reinforced frames, and toughened glass. This provides homeowners with peace of mind, knowing that their home is well-protected against intruders. Additionally, the sturdy construction of coloured composite doors makes them highly resistant to forced entry, further enhancing their security benefits. No matter how much your door stands out, your home won’t become a target for would-be thieves.
Energy Efficiency
Composite doors are also known for their energy efficiency. The combination of materials used in their construction provides excellent insulation properties, helping to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. This can lead to significant energy savings and a more comfortable living environment. Additionally, the tight seals and weatherproofing features of coloured composite doors prevent drafts and reduce heat loss, further improving their energy efficiency.

Personalisation and Customisation
Coloured composite doors offer every homeowner the opportunity to personalise and customise their entrance. With a wide range of colours, finishes, and styles to choose from, homeowners can create a unique and eye-catching entrance that reflects their personal style and preferences. Whether you prefer a traditional look or a more contemporary design, there is a coloured composite door that can be tailored to your specific taste.
