Before & After: White uPVC Door Replaced with a Cottage Style Composite Door

Anthracite grey cottage style composite door with black surround and handcrafted pillars.

A Complete Front Door Transformation

We recently completed another stunning front door transformation, replacing an old white uPVC front door with a beautiful cottage style composite door. Finished in a modern anthracite grey with a striking black surround, this installation also included handcrafted entrance pillars and a traditional lead roof, completely transforming the look of the property.

As well as dramatically improving the property’s kerb appeal, the new composite door provides increased security, improved energy efficiency and a stylish, low-maintenance finish designed to last for years. Every installation is tailored to suit the character of the home, ensuring a result that’s both practical and visually impressive.

From Outdated uPVC to a Beautiful Composite Door

The original entrance featured an ageing white uPVC front door that no longer complemented the property. While still functional, it lacked the character, security and energy efficiency that modern composite doors provide. The homeowner wanted an entrance that would enhance the appearance of the property while offering long-lasting performance.

After carefully removing the existing door, we installed a stunning cottage style composite door finished in anthracite grey. To complete the transformation, we constructed bespoke entrance pillars, fitted a stylish black surround and installed a traditional lead roof, creating an entrance that perfectly suits the home’s character.

Why Choose a Composite Door?

Composite doors have become one of the UK's most popular front door choices thanks to their combination of style, security and durability. Manufactured using multiple high-performance materials, they offer excellent thermal efficiency, require very little maintenance and are designed to withstand the changing British weather without warping, fading or cracking.

Available in a wide range of colours, glazing options and hardware styles, composite doors can be tailored to complement both traditional and modern homes. Whether you're looking for a timeless cottage style entrance or a sleek contemporary design, a professionally installed composite door can completely transform your home's appearance while improving everyday performance.
