C & L Windows and Conservatories Ltd: Patio Doors and Composite Doors

Patio Doors
Patio Doors are most commonly made from PVC-u, and have a sliding action. The finish may be white, or a light or dark timber effect. Some patio doors have more complex opening arrangements than the simple sliding action. for example, some can tilt for ventilation, and hinge outwards. Patio doors can also have a concertina action, with the doors typically opening outwards, or inwards for opening, otherwise known as bi-folding door. This has the benefit of providing a full width clear opening to terrace or garden.

Viewed from inside or out, patio doors transform the look of your rooms as well as your home as a whole. Illuminating interiors with natural light, providing comfort from the elements and affording security with peace of mind, are the essential criteria for all window and door products. These are the standards by which our reputation has been established. Good looks, great performance and long lasting peace of mind.

Composite Doors;
Where a door will be exposed to weather or particularly harsh or humid climates - composite doors are a smart choice. These doors realistically imitate the look of wood, thanks to a combination of moulded wood grain texturing and the fact that they can be stained to match most popular wood, such as Golden Oak or Rosewood.
The word Composite is used to refer to doors and Windows that are made up of more than one material. A composite door can look very much like a wooden door and part of the reason for this is that the mould was originally taken from a very old real wood door with outer frame moulded from PVC-u.

Your composite door will not crack, dent, peel or expand due to weather conditions. Unlike timber, they will not rot, bow or split and have a thermal insulation value of up to four times of timber doors.
