Composite Doors
The ultimate choice for security, thermal efficiency, and long-lasting beauty.
Why Choose a Composite Door?
Composite doors are the modern standard for front and back doors. Unlike traditional timber or standard UPVC doors, composite doors are made from a combination of materials, including a high-density insulating core, a solid timber frame, and a durable glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) skin.
This unique construction makes them incredibly strong and resistant to even the most determined intruders. They also offer the classic look of a timber door without any of the maintenance — they'll never rot, warp, or need painting.
At Rapide Frames, we supply and install a premium range of composite doors to homes across Grimsby, Cleethorpes, and Lincolnshire. With a vast choice of styles, colours, and glass designs, we'll help you create the perfect entrance for your home.

What Customers Say
"Absolutely love our new composite front door. It looks stunning in Anthracite Grey and feels so solid. The neighbours have all commented on it!"
"Replaced our old wooden front door that was rotting and draughty. The difference is incredible — the hallway is noticeably warmer and the door looks fantastic."
"Great service from start to finish. The door was fitted perfectly and the fitters cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend Rapide Frames."
Composite Door FAQs
What is a composite door made of?
A composite door is made from a combination of materials, including a solid timber core for strength, a high-density polyurethane foam filling for insulation, and a tough glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) skin for durability and weather resistance. This multi-layered construction is what makes them superior to standard UPVC or timber doors.
How long do composite doors last?
With minimal maintenance, a quality composite door will last 25-35 years or more. The GRP skin won't fade, rot, warp, or crack, making them a long-term investment for your home.
Are composite doors more secure than UPVC doors?
Generally, yes. The solid core construction makes composite doors inherently stronger and more resistant to forced entry than standard UPVC doors. When combined with multi-point locking systems and anti-snap cylinders, they offer an exceptional level of security.
Can I choose any colour for my composite door?
We offer a vast palette of colours and realistic woodgrain finishes, including popular choices like Anthracite Grey, Chartwell Green, Duck Egg Blue, and classic Black. Dual-colour options are also available, allowing a different colour inside and out.
Do composite doors come with a guarantee?
Yes, all our composite doors are covered by a comprehensive 10-year guarantee on both the product and the installation, giving you complete peace of mind.
