Why choose a Composite Door?
Composite doors offer the look and feel of a timber door without any of the inherent problems, such as cracking, bowing or twisting.
They have a high-density foam core which offers excellent strength and thermal performance, and a durable Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) skin to protect from the elements. GRP is the same materials that is used to make the hull of lifeboats – demonstrating just how tough it really is!
And unlike timber, composite doors are incredibly low maintenance – an occasional wipe over with a damp cloth will restore it to it’s original finish.
Can I have two different colours on the internal side and external side of the door?
Yes, we will almost certainly be able to apply a different finish to the interior and exterior of your composite door. From past experience, we know that a door with a red exterior and white interior can make for a nice contrast. If you need some guidance with colour, ask a member of our team for some expert input.
MORE COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions about our doors can always be directed towards our advisors. You may though find the answer you need in our common questions.
How many keys would I be given?
Any replacement door bought from TWC comes with 3 keys as standard. You can request more keys at the time of ordering, or have some cut by us further down the line.
Will I be able to use the same key for both doors? (Suited)
We can get that organised. Just let us know that you want this when your door is being ordered and the advisor involved will sort out a suited key that works with both doors.
What does Secured by Design mean?
Secured by Design is a scheme with Police-approval that is committed to improving the security standards of buildings and their immediate surroundings so that they’re safer places to be in.
The Police Preferred Specification – SBD’s product-based accreditation scheme – is the formally recognised standard for home improvement products that can minimise criminal acts. It includes domestic windows and doors, and their coexisting components e.g locks and hinges.
What does a 3-star rated door barrel mean?
If it’s the highest rated door cylinder that you want, you need a 3-star door cylinder. In multiple tests, it has proved over and over again that it can withstand almost anything. Our door cylinders include snap-secure technology with a lockdown mode to prevent the door barrel from becoming damaged or broken.
Can a French door be completely folded back?
You sure can! It needs the inclusion of an egress hinge for them to fully fold back, which when they do will give you the most wonderful view.
What should I choose – sliding patio doors or bi-folds?
There is no right or wrong choice, it all depends on what you want the door to do and your motivation for having a feature door installed. A bi-folding door is capable of being completely folded back to leave you with a generous garden opening, if that sounds enticing. The slender profile of a sliding patio door allows for a high quantity of glass in its design, meaning whether open or closed, the view will be no less spectacular.
Do you offer finance to help me pay for windows and doors?
Yes, we do. TWC has a series of affordable and convenient easy payment finance packages that you can potentially take advantage of (subject to application & status). Making a finance application is really straightforward and you won’t be kept waiting long to hear if it has been successful. This can be organised with you at your home or in our Swindon showroom, whichever is best for you.
What do we need to do when our finance is approved?
When you have arranged finance yourself, just let us know as soon as you receive word of it being accepted. If the finance is organised in conjunction with TWC, the finance will contact us both and we’ll then be in touch.
What happens if finance is refused?
People get turned down for finance for many different reasons, such as if they have moved a number of times in recent years. We’ll do whatever we can if your finance application is refused. Trying a provider who already knows you could be one solution.
I’ve applied for finance with TWC. How long will approval take?
It could be an almost immediate “yes” from the relevant finance company, or you might have to wait a few days for a response. Any delay isn’t something to be alarmed about and could occur for several reasons.
