Lower Your Heating Bills

A composite door can improve your home this winter because you will lower your heating bills significantly. All the doors feature a high density polyurethane barrier that keeps warm and cold air inside. The special core will maximise your home’s warmth, ensuring it is more efficient than a timber door. Furthermore, our design will give you an even higher performance thanks to a weather seal and woodpile barriers that reduce the threshold form under the door. 

Your composite door stops draughts from coming in because you will benefit from an external door gasket and advanced hinges. This results in constant compression between the door frames and draughts to prevent draughts from coming in. And, our doors give you the option of double or triple glazing to reduce heat loss, saving energy bills. Endurance’s doors are A rated for thermal efficiency, making this one of the warmest doors on the market. 

Composite Doors Offer Plenty of Security

When you choose a composite door, they will give you the highest quality security measures. Our composite doors come with multi point locking systems that will keep intruders out of your home. Burglaries are on the rise this winter, but our locks are set up with smart technology, enabling you to keep an eye on the door. 

The mechanical Slam locking system locks by itself, offering latch bolts that are secured so they are not forced back. These locks can only be opened with a key, giving you complete control and safety. 

Furthermore, the doors come with some of the largest deadbolts in the UK, resulting in maximum safety over time. The deadbolts are created from hardened steel, alongside being accredited by Secured by Design. This is an initiative backed by the police that ensures every home is safe for you to live in. Ad door that’s been accredited by Secured by Design has been rigorously tested against tough objects to make sure you get rigorous protection. 

Composite Doors Are Low Maintenance 

Another benefit that your composite door gives you low maintenance, which means the only thing you need to do is wipe it with a cloth and it looks as good as new. It is bolstered by a water resistant coating which ensures you don’t need to repaint or revarnish your door, which is handy because dirt and rust accumulate over time. Feel confident a door that will enhance the maintenance issues over time. 

Cleaning the composite door should be done every six months,. Apply it on the lock, hinges and cylinder, so it looks as good as new. And, what’s more, to protect your door even further, lift the handle every time you shut the door, which stops it from degrading. Thesis simple trick makes a big difference in your home. If you live in a coastal town, you might need to clean it more often due to the unpredictable weather conditions. 

Influx of Natural Light 

Another way to keep your home toasty this winter is to include an influx of natural light in your home. This will give your home a warmer and airy feel. With energy bills rising during the winter, the influx of natural light will save you plenty of money. It will also reduce your carbon footprint, so you will do your bit for the environment. 

The glazing patterns give you plenty of customisation options. Choose from two panels to give you more privacy, or four panels to make your home brighter. 

Switch to Triple Glazing 

When you choose a composite door, upgrade to triple glazing. Three thick panes of glass are protected with two layers of argon gas, bolstering security, thermal efficiency, and durability. 

Triple glazing will also reduce condensation in your windows, which stops cold air in your home. Choose Low E glass for extra thermal protection, reducing the sun’s glare. This will help protect your furniture from discolouring.
