Composite Doors
in Cardiff

Cardiff’s homes span Victorian and Edwardian bay‑fronted terraces in Roath, Cathays and Canton, handsome period townhouses around Pontcanna, 1930s semis across Whitchurch and Llandaff North, and contemporary apartments and townhouses in Cardiff Bay and along the riverside. Nearby areas including Penarth and Barry along the coast, and Caerphilly to the north, add coastal villas, cottage‑style homes and modern family developments.

Traditionally, door choices have reflected these settings: timber for heritage character, uPVC for suburban affordability and aluminium for crisp, contemporary lines.

Today, composite doors have become the preferred choice across Cardiff because they combine the authentic look of timber with superior insulation, robust security and minimal maintenance, ideal for windy waterfront locations and busy urban streets alike.

Each Solidor composite door features a solid timber core, advanced multi‑point locking and excellent thermal performance, well‑suited to South Wales’ varied weather and exposed plots near the Bay.

With a broad range of colours, glazing designs and hardware finishes, you can tailor your new entrance to complement a stucco‑fronted terrace in Pontcanna, a red‑brick bay in Roath or a sleek apartment in Cardiff Bay.

Designing your door is easy with our Door Designer: explore colourways, glass and hardware combinations, then share your preferred specification with one of our approved local installers.

By choosing Solidor, you’re choosing a door that’s built to last, beautifully made, and tailored to the way you live.

While composite doors typically cost more than standard uPVC, they compare favourably with solid timber and high‑end aluminium options often used across Cardiff’s period façades and modern developments.

With excellent insulation, impressive durability and low maintenance, a fully fitted composite door offers strong long‑term value, especially in a region where energy efficiency and all‑weather reliability matter.

For composite doors in Cardiff, prices typically range from £1,000 to £3,000 for a new front door. When installation is included, and also accounting for property style and access across busy Cardiff neighbourhoods, the average cost usually falls between £1,500 and £2,500.
