What Are Anglian Composite Doors?
Anglian composite doors are strong, durable, weather-resistant, and thermally insulated doors that keep the warmth in and the draughts out. A composite front door is made from various materials, such as uPVC, PU foam insulation, thermoplastic polymer skin, and wood.
The combination of materials makes composite doors durable, allowing them to withstand knocks and scrapes. It gives you the best of both worlds: your door can look like it is made from real wood but has the longevity and benefits of a uPVC door.
Composite doors also tend to be highly energy-efficient due to their insulation properties. Couple your composite front door with double-glazed windows and watch how your energy bills drop.
And, as a bonus feature, Anglian doors are all low-maintenance - just a quick wipe down and it looks good as new.

Glazing
Glazing means that between the layers of glass, there are gas-filled, sealed units that retain heat. Your composite front door can be extremely energy efficient, depending on which glazing type you opt for. You can choose from double-glazed windows and doors or up the ante with triple-glazing.
Double-glazed windows and doors have an extra layer of glass that helps to keep in the warmth. The space between the two layers of glass is filled with argon gas.
Secondary glazing is a piece of glass in a separate frame that is inserted on the inside of your doors or windows.
Triple glazing adds another layer on top of that, which is ideal for north-facing windows and doors. The tripled glazing is A+ rated and provides the best possible insulation. It has an extra layer of insulating inert gas, like argon.
Sizes
While there are custom-sized doors available, it is recommended that, for the best quality and cost, you get a made-to-measure door and frame. A door that is measured by a qualified Anglian surveyor will fit perfectly on installation day.
A perfectly sized door will also be more secure and highly energy efficient as it won't let warm air escape.
Colours
When installing a composite door from Anglian Home Improvements, you have over 20 colours to choose from. Remember that you need to choose a colour for the outside and the inside faces of the door. Anglian offers a wide variety of colours to suit any taste, from classic woodgrain finishes to contemporary bold colours. This means that the door will complement the exterior of your home and match your decor.
There are four classic colours available for hardware and accessories: white, black, chrome, and gold. These colours can be easily mixed and matched with different door shades to create a stylish and personalised entrance.
It's important to consider the finish of your door hardware as well. Anglian offers hardware in polished or matte finishes to further complement your chosen door style.
