Solidor Doors

[PugwasHDJ80]

Looking for a reasonable quality new front door and rear stable door

Lots of places seem to only sell solidor

Is that because they are good, or just very well marketed

Budget between 3k and 4k for both, is there another brand we should be looking at? Needs to be well insulated!

We had one installed at the last house, timber composite door with upvc frame.

No issues in five years and no draughts.

Rockdoor used to get recommended, not sure if they're still any good.

Had a Solidor front door put in around 2018/2019. Very solid timber internals with composite skins, different colour inside and out and nicely finished.

Solid, high quality fixtures and fittings and very secure. The installers said the police hate them as they take a serious effort to knock them in....(!) which was somewhat reassuring..

No complaints and would fit another for sure, like so many of these things the overall effect is often dictated by the quality and workmanship of the installation, all worked out well in my case.

There isn’t much difference between most of the composite doors, it mainly comes down to how well they are fitted.

We had 2 solidor doors installed in Devon. Both have had to be replaced (one twice) under warranty due to warping. One replaced due to delamination. Both have leaked.

We are replacing a back door at home and following the rubbish experience with Solidor are having a wooden one made.

We've had a Solidor front door, with a narrow glass panel each side, for 6 years. No problems. The stainless steel letter box, knocker, and handle look like new.
