Why this suits Greater Manchester
A composite door does not warp like timber or go chalky like early uPVC, which is why it is the default replacement front door across Greater Manchester.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces, large interwar council-built estates, and modern city-centre apartments. One of the wetter urban areas in England — persistent rain rather than storm exposure. The failure that tends to come first is Water ingress at cill and reveal junctions, and mould at reveals where trickle ventilation was never fitted — worth knowing before you decide between repairing what you have and replacing it.
Trickle vents are worth specifying here even where regulations do not force them. Order to the structural opening, measured in three places, smallest figure wins. How to measure properly.

Composite doors in Greater Manchester — questions
How long does delivery to Greater Manchester take?
About a week from order for standard products in standard finishes, then 1–2 working days once made for the run to Greater Manchester. Special RAL colours and made-to-measure joinery take longer, and you get a firm date before you pay.
Do you install in Greater Manchester?
Installation is available and quoted as a separate line, so you can see exactly what the fitting costs against the product. The product still arrives on the supply-only lead time; the fitting date depends on the diary.
What size do I order to?
The structural opening — brick to brick, lintel to cill. Measure in three places and use the smallest figure. Do not take a fitting tolerance off yourself; that is done at our end.
What usually needs replacing in Greater Manchester?
Water ingress at cill and reveal junctions, and mould at reveals where trickle ventilation was never fitted. That is the pattern across most of the county, though an individual property can differ.
Can I get a price without giving you my details?
Prices are published on the product pages with an inc and ex VAT switch. For your exact sizes we need to price it, but you can see the range before you speak to anyone.
