If you’re looking for an incredibly durable external door with a stunning aesthetic, then GRP doors are the perfect option. Not only are they strong and secure, but they also offer excellent thermal efficiency and easy maintenance.
What does GRP stand for?
GRP stands for glass reinforced plastic, a composite material that is derived from a combination of PVC, wood, insulation foam & glass fibers. This unique blend of materials provides superior strength and rigidity. This creates a door that can withstand extreme weather conditions while maintaining its sophisticated look.
These doors are ideal for homes in coastal areas or other places where air humidity is higher than usual – their high-density surface won’t warp or swell due to the water, making them extremely reliable even when exposed to harsh environments over time. Furthermore, their insulating foam core helps keep out unwanted noise as well as provide better temperature control inside your home.
Are GRP doors secure?
In terms of security, GRP doors have been designed with robust locking systems and multiple locking points. The solid construction of these doors also means no worries about warping or twisting over time. So you can rest assured that your home will remain secure indefinitely.
Not only do these types of doors offer great protection but also look stylish and are easy to maintain, requiring nothing more than an occasional wipe down with a damp cloth to keep them looking their best.
Benefits of choosing GRP external doors
Perhaps one of the biggest draws of GRP external doors is the fact that they require minimal maintenance. All you need to do is give them an occasional wipe with a damp cloth to clean off any dust or dirt particles that may build up on the surface. For busy homeowners who don’t have time for regular upkeeps on their exterior doors, making it an ideal choice that offers both convenience and reliability in one package.
The immense benefit of GRP doors is that they do not require a full frame set. Instead they can easily be fitted to already existing timber frames. This is made possible as they have been designed with a 60mm trim allowance. 20mm on either side, 20mm at the top and 40mm at the bottom.
Even better, matching sidelights are available which perfectly complement & coordinate with each door style. GRP doors offer high levels of resilience to both moisture and temperature changes. This makes them ideal for use in external settings such as entranceways.
To sum it up, GRP external doors offer an impressive range of benefits. Long lasting strength and security; excellent thermal resistance; easy maintenance; plus striking designs with intricate details – all at a fraction of traditional wooden door and treatment costs!
