Solid-core composite doors from Endurance Doors and Cannondoor, hung square and set so the lock throws without a shoulder behind it.
Doors
A composite door is a solid core clad in a tough glass-reinforced skin and hung in a reinforced frame. Compared with a uPVC panel door it is heavier, more secure, better insulated and far more convincing up close.
The fit matters as much as the door. A heavy slab that is not hung square will drop, and a multipoint lock that has to be forced is a lock that will fail. We set the frame true, adjust the hinges so the door closes evenly on its seals, and make sure the lock throws with a light lift of the handle.
We fit composite doors from Endurance Doors and Cannondoor, made to measure in a wide range of styles, colours, glazing and hardware.
Options
Contemporary, traditional and cottage designs, solid or glazed, with sidelights and toplights where the opening allows.
Anthracite, black, blues, greens, reds and woodgrains — often a different colour inside to out.
Clear, obscure and decorative glass options for the door and any side panels.
Lever and bar handles, knockers, letterplates and spyholes in chrome, satin, black or gold finishes.
Multipoint locking and anti-snap cylinders on the doors we fit.
Composite is not just for the front — back doors and stable doors are available in the same ranges.

Really happy with the new composite door Carl fitted for me. Great job from start to finish, really tidy work and the door looks spot on. Highly recommend.
I've had all my windows and doors fitted by Carl he came highly recommended by a family member. The whole process was very easy — Carl helped me through selecting and choosing my windows and doors, him and his team were very meticulous removing and fitting the windows and doors, everything was cleaned up and spotless at end of shift. Highly recommended.
Free survey, fixed written price. Carl measures up and prices the job properly — no obligation, and nobody chasing you afterwards.
