GRP Composite Doors
​
We don't believe in compromising on quality. We've brought together materials to give you the very best in strength, easy maintenance, security and weather resistance. Oh - and they look great as well.
Behind that rather scientific-sounding name, you'll find the latest technology and design indoors. When you're indoors you'll enjoy loads of style, strength and security too.

Features & Benefits
GRP skinned
​
To give great definition and long life performance Door-Stop doors use glass reinforced plastic skins. For keeping people safe, secure and protected against all weather conditions. It's used today to make the hulls of boats because it's super-strong and has exceptional wind and water resistance. That's why we use it for our composite doors.
The average rainfall in the UK is between 700mm a year in East Anglia, and up to 3,000mm a year in the Scottish Highlands!* To make sure Door-Stop doors are up to this demanding task they are tested in a pressurised chamber to stimulate gusting winds starting at 63 miles an hour and up to 80 miles an hour - that's stronger than a hurricane. Then they are tested further by spraying two litres of water every minute directly at the door in their test chamber.
Secured by Design
​
A range of accredited locking systems available to suit your preferred needs, as well as BS6375 and kitemarked cylinders as standard. Upgrading your door to PAS24 or the Police approved Secured By Design specification is just one click, and still with you in 7 days.
The edges
​
The hinge edge of your door has a PVC edging. Then we cut through the edging so that whichever hinge you selected sits neatly inside the edge of your door.
To make the door super-strong, the lock edge has been fitted with a full length of 4mm thick, powder-coated aluminium lock strip. Then your preferred lock sits flush inside your door.
​
Thresholds and drips
​
We are fixated with offering the best possible looking door. Even though it is only 15mm high, and Part M compliant, the wheelchair threshold can still be seen from outside. That's why Door-Stop wheelchair thresholds will always match the external colour you chose for the door frame. This isn't something you need to select, you just get it as standard.
In the same way that if you order a colour door the aluminium door drip is exactly the same colour. The door drip does a really important job, but with so many beautiful aspects to a Door-Stop door you won't want the door drip stealing the eye.
