Why we chose Rockdoor Composite Doors

Having fit about eight different types of composite doors over the last five years from various manufacturers the one door that always impressed was the Rockdoor. Every door we receive is packaged properly so there is little chance of it being received damaged which is very important. The last thing you want is to receive a door the day before you are fitting it only to find it has been damaged in transit because it hasn't been handled with care or properly protected. To date we have had no such issues with them but did have with other suppliers of composite doors.

More importantly though is the quality of the door itself. All the components that go into making one are of the best quality available and the finish for handles and letterboxes etc. look like they belong in a jewellers glass case rather than on a door. The finish of the door face is superb. It is very very hard wearing and resistant to scratches meaning that the door will look good for the lifetime of the door and does indeed stand up to heavy traffic unlike many of the sprayed composite doors with dubious paint characteristics.

When choosing Rockdoors over  other composite door suppliers I went back to the ones we had installed and was pleasantly surprised at just how well they looked having been fitted up to 4 years previous. To be honest they looked just as good as they did the day they were installed and having spoke to various customers it was evident that they were still highly delighted with their door years later. As an installer, once you have fitted a door for someone you seldom see that person again unless you are called to either adjust a door or do extra work. In the case of the Rockdoor I had never had a call back so it was interesting to see on my part to see how it has earned it’s status of the best composite door on the market. The last thing you want as an installer or a customer is a product that creates problems down the line.

All the security features ever needed for a door are available to choose from but it’s the inner strength that set it apart from the rest. Many composite door makers buy standard sized door slabs and then reduce the doors height & width to get the desired size. This reduction of width & height means that the door is not as strong as it should be as some of the outer frame has been removed in making the door set. With a Rockdoor things are different. The door is made from scratch meaning that every door has the same sized internal frame as every other Rockdoor meaning that the strength of the frame is never compromised or reduced in any way. The new ultimate range is so advanced that it has state of the art carbon fibre inside the framework of the door making it the strongest composite door on the market of it’s kind.

Many composite doors are very light weight in construction. Having had their frames reduced to get the height and width the majority of the door is then just condensed foam with a door skin either side and a glazing cassette. Compared like for like (solid door with no glass in) I would estimate that a Rockdoor is at least 30 to 50% heavier than other composite doors  I have handled. Handling one is very demanding as the weight of these doors are comparable to a solid mahogany door. As a customer you wouldn’t be aware of the weight as the door is usually on hinges & fitted before you get a feel of the door so you never get to feel the full weight of the door. Talking of hinges, they uses the traditional butt hinge with 3D adjustment. Hinges, in my experience are very very important to the door & you need a hinge that can not only take the weight of a door but also stay in adjustment for the life of the door. If the hinge moves over time then you will get locking problems with your door and for that reason alone I dismissed many suppliers.

One other thing worth mentioning is the way glass is installed in a standard composite door. Nearly all composite door makers that I know of use a system called a glazing cassette. Without going into too much detail I personally think they are a security liability & vastly reduce a doors thermal & noise insulation qualities. I remember fitting a door for a company where the customer complained that the door was noisy around the glass & could anything be done to improve the situation. I was sent back to take out the glazing cassette & apply a sound deadening material around the glass & was shocked not only to see just how easily a glazing cassette could be removed but the gap around the glass itself which basically lets cold air from the outside through to the inner face of the door. That put me off 90% of composite doors for that reason alone. The only door not to use this system that I know of was the Rockdoor as the glass is built into the door itself.

Reading the above makes it seem like the Rockdoor is the only door you that should have fitted to your home. It isn’t. The above description is about why I chose to supply and fit Rockdoors. There are a number of different suppliers offering composite doors that I could have dedicated my website too that would supply me their composite door cheaper than Rockdoor can but at the end of the day I have gone for quality over quantity. You can buy composite doors for less than what you would pay for a Rockdoor from me and if money is the deciding factor in your choice then I respect that decision. But, if you budget does allow then a Rockdoor should be top of your list. Because we have very low overheads we don't need to charge what others do for Rockdoors. In other words, we are supplying these doors to people who budgeted for a standard composite door from a larger company. We are looking to add PayPal in the coming months as a payment option in addition to Google Checkout
