About Composite Doors
Your front door is the first thing visitors see and the last line of defence for your home. At Custom Choice Home Improvements, we supply and install premium composite doors that combine stunning visual appeal with the highest levels of security, energy efficiency, and durability. Our composite doors are the definitive upgrade for homeowners across Peterborough and Cambridgeshire who want a front door that makes a statement and stands the test of time.
A composite door is engineered from multiple materials, each chosen for its specific performance characteristics, which are bonded together to create a door that outperforms any single-material alternative. At the heart of our composite doors is a solid 48mm timber core that provides outstanding structural rigidity, thermal insulation, and acoustic performance. This core is encased in a Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) skin that faithfully reproduces the grain texture and visual depth of natural timber, without any of the drawbacks. Unlike real wood, GRP will not fade in sunlight, crack in frost, swell in rain, or warp with changes in humidity. Your composite door will look as good in ten years as it does on the day it is installed.
Security is where composite doors truly excel. Every composite door we install at Custom Choice achieves Secured by Design accreditation, the official police-preferred security specification developed by the Association of Chief Police Officers. This means the door, frame, glazing, and hardware have all been independently tested and certified to resist common burglary attack methods. Our doors feature high-security multi-point locking systems with hooks, deadbolts, and roller cams that engage at multiple points around the frame when the handle is lifted and the key turned. Anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump, and anti-drill cylinder locks come as standard, providing the highest level of protection against lock manipulation techniques.
The design options available with our composite doors are virtually limitless. We offer an extensive range of door styles, from traditional panelled designs with elegant moulding details to sleek contemporary doors with bold geometric glazing patterns. Each style is available in a wide palette of colours including classic black, racing green, blue, red, cream, grey, and many more. All colours are applied as a through-colour within the GRP skin, so minor scratches do not reveal a different colour beneath the surface.
Glazing options allow you to personalise your door further. Choose from a range of decorative glass designs including classic leaded patterns, contemporary frosted panels, and clear glass for maximum light. Side panels and toplights can be specified to complement the main door design, creating a grand entrance that floods your hallway with natural light. All glazing is toughened safety glass and is internally beaded for security.
Hardware choices complete the look of your new composite door. We offer a range of letterplates, knockers, handles, and numerals in finishes including chrome, gold, black, and brushed stainless steel. Every piece of hardware is selected for quality and durability, ensuring smooth operation and an attractive appearance for years to come.
Energy efficiency is built into every composite door we supply. The solid timber core and insulated frame deliver outstanding thermal performance, with U-values that meet and exceed current Building Regulations. A well-fitted composite door eliminates the draughts, cold spots, and heat loss that are common with older panel doors or poorly performing UPVC alternatives, helping to reduce your heating bills and improve comfort throughout your home.
At Custom Choice, we understand that your front door is a deeply personal choice. That is why we offer a free home design consultation where we bring samples of colours, glass designs, and hardware options to your door so you can see exactly how your new entrance will look. Our experienced team will take precise measurements and advise on the best configuration, colour, and features for your property and your budget.
Installation is carried out by our own directly employed fitting teams. A composite door installation typically takes just half a day, minimising disruption to your household. Every installation includes a new outer frame, threshold, all hardware, and full weathersealing, ensuring a perfect fit and draught-free performance from day one. We are FENSA-registered and every installation is covered by our comprehensive 10-year insurance-backed guarantee.
Whether you live in a Victorian terrace in Peterborough city centre, a detached home in Werrington, or a country cottage near Stamford, a composite door from Custom Choice is the perfect way to transform your home's entrance.

Frequently asked
Composite doors are significantly more secure, better insulated, and more visually convincing than UPVC panel doors. The 48mm solid timber core provides superior structural rigidity and thermal performance, while the GRP skin offers a realistic timber grain finish that UPVC cannot match. Composite doors also resist warping and bowing that can affect UPVC doors over time.
Composite door prices vary depending on the style, colour, glazing, and hardware specification. A standard solid composite door typically starts from around £1,200-£1,500 fully installed, with glazed designs and premium hardware options increasing the price. We provide detailed, transparent quotations with no hidden costs.

Our composite doors achieve Secured by Design accreditation, the highest security standard available. They feature multi-point locking with hooks, deadbolts, and roller cams, plus anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump, and anti-drill cylinder locks as standard.
