With home intrusion concerns steadily rising across the UK, security has become a top priority for many homeowners. More than ever, people are seeking ways to protect their properties and ensure their homes can withstand potential break-in attempts.
Statistics show that 73% of burglars enter through a door, making the front entrance one of the most critical points of defence. If you’re replacing an old front door, it’s essential to prioritise modern security features and invest in a high-performance upgrade that delivers both resilience and reassurance.
Where Do Break-Ins Start? Common Door Weaknesses: Your door may not be as secure as it looks. Outdated locks are one of the most frequent weak points, especially those with single-point locking systems that can be forced open in seconds. Doors made from subpar materials like man-made timber, foam core panels, or worn-out uPVC also tend to fail under pressure. Glazing can pose a hidden risk, too. Panels that are single-glazed or lack reinforcement can be broken, allowing intruders to reach inside and unlock the door. Even if the door itself is strong, poor installation can undo all its benefits. A misaligned frame, loose hinges, or visible gaps around the edges all provide easy opportunities for forced entry.
Why Endurance Composite Doors Stop Intruders Cold: If you’re worried about lock security, Endurance composite doors come fitted with the ABS Master Locking Cylinder, designed with a 7-pin tumbler system that resists drilling, picking, and snapping. In fact, we’re so confident in its strength that if a break-in does occur due to the lock snapping, we’ll offer you £2,000 in compensation. That’s how seriously we take your security. When it comes to strength, our doors set the standard. Every Endurance door is hung in a PVC reinforced frame, and constructed with a 48mm thick, cross-bonded laminated timber core made from 17 solid layers. That makes them nearly 10% thicker than standard composite doors, delivering exceptional durability and resistance to forced entry.
We also understand that even the best door is only as good as its installation. That’s why we work exclusively with our trusted network of approved installers. Each one is carefully vetted to ensure your door is fitted with expert precision, so you can enjoy lasting performance and true peace of mind.
