- Composite, aluminium or uPVC front door — which is best?
- Composite for period homes where you want a painted-timber look with modern security and thermals. Aluminium for contemporary homes and slim sightlines. uPVC where a clean, familiar frame profile suits the elevation. All three carry the same PAS 24 security.
- How secure is a good front door?
- The critical specification is a TS 007 3-star anti-snap cylinder, PAS 24 multi-point locking, laminated inner glazing on any side lights, and a reinforced sash. All four together are what insurers ask for and what a burglar will walk away from.
- Can I match my front door to a Farrow-and-Ball colour?
