What is a Composite Door and how is it different to a PVC Door?
A composite door is made from a combination of materials such as wood, insulating foam, and glass-reinforced plastic (GRP), designed to offer strength, durability, and improved security. These doors are engineered to overcome common issues found in single-material doors, such as warping or weather damage.
In contrast, a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) door is typically made from a single extruded plastic material. While PVC doors are lightweight, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, they may not offer the same level of strength or insulation as composite doors. Composite doors are also known for their realistic wood-like appearance and enhanced thermal efficiency compared to standard PVC doors.
However, a well made Engineered PVC Door is often of comparable insulation, strength and can offer great looks when designed right and made well
