Need this front door replacing cos it’s completely fked. I really want a composite one so it can have multi lock as the house is 2 flats and this is shared into communal hallway. And it’s on a noisy busy road so the sound proofing would help. But, I don’t want regular size composite door made to fit with st infil panels.

Anyone know if you can get wide ones? Also, (I don’t want much) that don’t cost silly money. Another question do they come with a frame ie is the existing wooden frame removed?

The width is 105cm x height 208cm. I think composite doors only really go to 1m wide. And what would happen with the glass window above?

90% of composite doors are made from Chinese blanks, they are all very similar and won’t go up to those dimensions. A few companies manufacture their own panels, Rockdoor for example, I still think you will struggle with that size for a door only though.
I haven’t used this company but some similar examples shown.

Thanks I’ve emailed them to see. If not I suppose it’s a wooden one will have to be made but I’m not as keen on that.

Damn find out please! As these composite ones are looking too expensive now + I’ll looking into these locking mechanisms on wooden doors. Problem is where to get one from etc I don’t want some mega expensive custom made jobbie
