DoorCo Composite Doors
Composite Doors by DoorCo has a wide range of designs that offer affordability, yet do not compromise on style and security. DoorCo doors are manufactured with timber edging and are filled with CFC-free Polyurethane foam which is then covered in a grained effect reinforced GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) skin. This allows the doors to be almost 20% more thermally efficient compared to solid timber doors which can help to reduce customer’s energy bills.
As all DoorCo doors are covered in the reinforced GRP skin, this allows for a much wider range of styles and colours available. The GRP skin is also virtually maintenance free allowing customers to be assured that their door will always look as pristine as the day it was installed.
At Polytrade we have installed hundreds of DoorCo Composite Doors across Norfolk and Suffolk in Diss, Long Stratton, Eye, Bungay, Dickleburgh Pulham Market, Norwich, Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and many other places in East Anglia.

In the regular column in the September GGP Magazine, Jayne Sullivan, DOORCO’s Operations Director looks to the trends the company is seeing in hardware for its prepped doors. Obviously hardware choices determine the security, legal compliance and functionality of a door, but in parallel with the increasing importance of design, it’s the hardware that adds the finishing touches aesthetically.
DOORCO preps for any lock, hinge, letterplate or door handle configuration. We are totally impartial and led by demand from our customers, so we won’t be naming any names in this column!
Getting a handle on it
The first and foremost important aspect of a door – for practicality and aesthetics – is the way you open it. We are prepping more and more doors for hardware every month. As a recent example in July, 80% were prepped for a separate handle, and the majority were for Lever/Lever handles from various manufacturers. This may only be one month, but looking back over last year, the results are very similar. Where we prepped for a handle, the top 5 choices were identical (which make up over 84% of all the handle prepping across both periods). We posed the question to customers and the feedback was the same – Lever/Lever handles are still the most popular choice.
