Superior energy efficiency
Composite doors offer outstanding thermal insulation, helping you save on your energy bills. Our range of Apeer composite doors have energy ratings up to A++ and can retain heat up to seven times better than standard doors.

Unlike other materials, composite doors do not need to be sanded, painted, or varnished. This significantly reduces maintenance costs, as they can maintain their appearance with just a simple wipe down using a damp cloth.
Noise reduction
The multi-layered construction of our composite doors offers excellent sound insulation. This makes them ideal for homes in busy areas, as they significantly reduce external noise, creating a more comfortable living environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a composite door made from, and how is it different to other doors?
A composite door is constructed using a combination of materials—typically a solid timber core, reinforced frame, and a durable, weatherproof outer layer such as GRP (glass reinforced plastic). This multi-layered build results in a door that offers superior strength, insulation, and weather resistance compared to single-material alternatives like timber or uPVC.
Are composite doors available in traditional and modern designs?
Yes, our composite doors come in a wide variety of styles—from heritage-inspired panels to minimalist, contemporary designs. With a broad choice of colours, glazing, and hardware, you can easily tailor the door to match your home’s character.
How do composite doors perform when it comes to sound insulation?
Thanks to their dense core and high-quality sealing, composite doors offer excellent soundproofing. They’re an ideal choice if you live near a busy road or want to reduce noise between the indoors and outdoors.
Will the colour of my composite door fade over time?
Not with ours. The outer GRP skin is UV-resistant and weatherproof, helping it retain its colour and finish for years without cracking, flaking, or fading—even in harsh sunlight or wet conditions.
Is there a difference between foam core and solid core composite doors?
Yes—foam core doors are lighter and generally more affordable, but solid core versions (like many we offer) provide enhanced security, durability, and a more substantial feel. We’re happy to guide you through the options based on your priorities.
