Composite doors

I am planning to get a new front door fitted and want a composite front door with all of the bells and whistles security-wise.

I've got about £1000 in my head as a reasonable budget for both the door and the fitting - does that sound about right?

Also, does anyone have any recommendations? I've got someone coming round next week who fits endurance doors, and I'm also planning to get a quote from Solidor. Is there anyone else I should be thinking about?

I paid £1150 for mine and that included the glass at the top. Also three Yale laser cut keys. It looks stunning. I've moved since but it made such a difference to the front of the house!

I paid £1500 in London about 3 years ago. I love it, it looks good and blocks out noise well (we are end of terrace and our front door faces neighbours door about 3 metres away).

We used Albion.

Price wise I'd say you are about right. We had one fitted about 3 years ago. Looks good and is secure.

Thanks, I'll look into Albion as well. Glad to know I'm not too far off the mark on price too!

Try ig doors or birtley doors, trade uses those and they come in loads of styles and come on secure by design. Doors cost around the £400 mark, you can get a half decent carpenter to fit, we just fitted ours ourself as the come as a frame and door, so just popped the old PVC door and frame out and popped the new frame and door in.
