I've been looking at replacing our 25+ year old uPVC door for a few years now, primarily because it looks rubbish and the heat appears to vanish through it with ease (although seals tight, it seems to just have a bit of polystyrene inside it...). I wish I'd never started looking as it seems loads of people have had issues with all the door places I've been looking at..Rockdoor/endurance and Solidor all have reports of warping or cracking etc which scares me considering how much these things cost...
Has anyone heard of 'Ultimate' composite doors? They seem to be a foam/wood mix and price seems ok but can't seem to find much in the way of reviews. They are used by my local glazing firm, quote is for £2k with sidelight and fancy handles.
Same thing from Solidor was £3k with just a fairly standard door and side window, and Endurance quote came in at £2.4k.
I've hopefully got a quote from Rockdoor coming but I must admit between the cost and concern that it's going to crack on me I am wondering if it's worth the cost and effort!
