How do I look after my new composite door?
Everything about your Distinction composite door has been designed to be easy to maintain.
To prolong the life of the surface and to keep that showroom finish, a small amount of care and attention is recommended. How often will depend on where you live. In a coastal or heavily industrialised area or near a busy main road, cleaning may need to be more frequent. We recommend that you only use warm soapy water (washing up liquid is suitable) with a lint-free cloth and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth.

What is the construction of a Distinction Composite Door?
Manufactured from Thermoset GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester), the doors are compression moulded to give a high-definition panel design with the character of timber. The stiles and rails are composed of water-resistant polymer which is bonded to the skin and filled with an insulating core of 100% CFC-free polyurethane.
How is a Distinction door different to a UPVC door?
Unlike UPVC doors construction of plastic only, a Distinction composite door is constructed with a multitude of materials, including GRP (glass reinforced polyester) and a CFC- polyurethane foam core.
A Distinction composite door is 44mm thick which compares to a standard UPVC door of 28mm. Distinction composite doors are extremely thermally efficient and weather resistant.

*Our Signature composite doors have been independently tested at the University of Salford’s Energy House against a solid timber core composite door (48mm) and a timber panelled door (44mm). This is a typical Salford 1919 terraced house and its construction represents 21% of the UK’s current housing stock.
