I have to buy a new front door and I want to choose the best value for money. Here are my questions.
There seem to be three options: timber, composite and uPVC.
I have two quotes from double glazing companies to fit composite doors, they're a little under £2,300.
I can buy a composite door from Wickes for max £1000 and the prices go gown to £600. I can get it fitted in a day max. Why is the double glazing company so expensive? Are they just pushing their luck or is there something I should be aware of?
I have a quote for a uPVC door for about £1800. I know they are less secure and some people say they don't look as good as composite. In terms of durability though, is there any difference (both come with a 10 year guarantee)
I can get a timber door from Wickes for £250. Is this the best option? It certainly is the cheapest!
