But what exactly sets it apart from other composite doors on the market?
Let’s explore the top 5 reasons why choosing a Solidor for your entrance is a smart investment.

Whether you want to maintain your property’s period charm or modernise its look, there’s a Solidor to match your vision.
3. Superior Thermal Efficiency
Thanks to its solid timber core and tightly sealed frames, a Solidor helps to retain heat and reduce energy bills:
- Energy-rated for thermal performance
- Keeps your home warm in winter and cool in summer
- Helps improve your property’s EPC rating
Choosing a Solidor means choosing comfort and cost-efficiency for years to come.
