New Front Door (South East)
Discussion
I got one fitted via a local guy from here http://www.directtradeltd.co.uk/composite-doors/
Was about £800 fitted IIRC. I got the Citadel version which is a bit thicker but does have a extra rebate that shows indoors, so it's not flush with the frame. But much stronger and more insulation. Very strong, good fittings, good lock and looks good.
Couple of things to note that my (crap) fitter did not mention when he spec'd the door.
Look at the low threshold version, so you don't have a white frame to step over, not a big deal but...
Also ask for a weather strip at the base, especially if it's exposed to rain.

Just had one fitted with slam shut. Very happy with the product and the fitting was excellent by these guys : http://www.kingsealwindows.co.uk/http://www.solidor.co.uk/
Not mega money either
If you look on the Solidor website theyve got a reseller type page, see who your local company is and give them a buzz. Mine was Glasstec not far from Portsmouth, very helpful you dont buy direct from Solidor from what I am aware. Mine was 1200 ish fully fitted, about the same price as a Yale although imho better.
In our last house we had a Kloeber fitted - very impressed with them.

In our current house we have had a bespoke door made by Woodbase Joiners - really happy with everything they have done for us, both windows and doors.
