GFD Homes answers UK homeowners’ top questions in Part 4 — from composite door durability to aluminium energy efficiency and bifolds in small spaces.
Part 4 of our “Your Questions Answered” series from GFD Homes tackles some of the most common queries homeowners have about doors, windows, and glazing.
One frequent question is whether composite doors fade over time. Thanks to their GRP skin, a modern composite door from GFD Homes resists UV rays, scratches, and weather damage, lasting far longer than timber. Another key topic is door sizing. While a typical UK entrance door measures 900mm x 2100mm, most homes differ — which is why GFD Homes supplies made-to-measure entrance doors for a perfect fit.
For homeowners with smaller spaces, bifold doors are a surprise solution. Even two-panel bifolds can maximise light and create wide openings in compact rooms. On the other end of the scale, sliding doors from GFD Homes can reach up to 3 metres per panel, creating uninterrupted views.
We also address misconceptions about aluminium. Modern aluminium front doors and windows are thermally broken for insulation and fully recyclable, making them both efficient and sustainable. Add in robust uPVC window guarantees and advanced roof lantern glazing, and the result is clear answers and solutions for every home.
With GFD Homes, you get expert advice, transparent pricing, and supply-only products tailored to your space.
