White composite stable door

Does anyone have any actual recommendations for a company that supplies and installs composite stable doors?

Looking for a back door, outward opening, large window at the top - company who can talk us through a potential purchase without the hard sell - things like ensuring security of the hinges as it's outwards opening etc

I've seen a number of companies but some offer what we want, some don't, some insist on full details being provided before quoting, others give a price but no idea if they're any good or not.

Basically, it's a minefield - so, does anyone have any actual recommendations?

Or any opinions on composite stable doors!

Many thanks!

why must it be composite?

Mmmm only because of the research I've done online suggests that this is better than upvc.

All my other doors and windows are upvc so I don't think traditional wood would work, plus it's a very exposed wall/door which apparently wood doesn't work well with.

Open to suggestions though

we have two stable doors, both wood, and both tops open inwards with the rest of the door. One is kitchen to porch, so not a real exterior type, but was made to measure as it's an odd height, and the porch to outside door came from here and a joiner chum of dh's fitted it.

top opening out would just be totally weird surely (aside from the hinge thing).....anyone delivering is going to get a face full of door!

It's a back door so no deliveries thankfully - believe it or not but in our last house our front door opened outwards!!

Thanks for the link, I'll take a look!
