Composite Door Installation in Bristol
If you want a front door that looks solid, feels heavy, and holds its appearance for years, composite is the go-to choice. A solid timber core wrapped in GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) gives you the look of real wood with the low maintenance and weather resistance of modern materials.
We supply and fit composite front doors across Bristol, including measuring, removing your existing door, fitting the new door, and leaving everything clean and finished. Every composite door installation is Assure Register certified.
Why composite doors are popular
- Appearance — look and feel like a solid timber door without the maintenance
- Security — solid timber core makes them significantly harder to break through than hollow uPVC
- Insulation — foam-filled core provides excellent thermal and acoustic performance
- Longevity — GRP outer skin won't warp, crack, or fade for 20+ years
- Choice — wide range of styles, colours, and glazing options to suit any Bristol home

How much does a composite front door cost in Bristol?
A composite front door installed in Bristol costs approximately £1,800 plus VAT for a standard single door with glazing. The final price depends on the door style, glazing specification, and any additional hardware you choose — such as knockers, letterboxes, and security accessories.
This price includes the door, all hardware, removal of your existing door, fitting, and Assure Register certification. We'll give you a clear price after we've visited to measure up — there are no hidden charges.
Payment is by bank transfer. A deposit is required to confirm the order — payment terms will be confirmed when the work is booked.
Composite or uPVC — which is right for you?
Composite doors are the premium choice, but a uPVC front door is a perfectly practical alternative at a lower price point. The main differences: composite feels heavier and more solid, holds its colour better over time, and offers better security due to the timber core. uPVC is lighter and more affordable — for back doors especially, it's often the sensible choice. We're happy to discuss both options during a site visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- A standard door installation takes 2–4 hours. Lead time from order is typically 3–6 weeks — composite and uPVC doors are made to order. We confirm the installation date when you accept the quote.
- A composite door has a solid timber core wrapped in GRP (fibreglass), making it heavier, more rigid, and better insulated than a uPVC door. Composite is the better choice for a front door where appearance and security matter. uPVC is excellent value for rear and side doors.
- Not separately — as Assure Register accredited installers, we self-certify compliance on your behalf. You receive a certificate confirming compliance, required when selling your home.
- 50% deposit when you accept the quote, 50% on completion. Bank transfer only — no card payments.
