Upgrade your Leicester home

Leicester’s housing spans Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Clarendon Park, Highfields and Stoneygate, 1930s bay‑fronted semis across Wigston and Braunstone, post‑war suburbs in Evington and Rushey Mead, and modern developments around Hamilton, Thurmaston and the city’s regeneration areas. In neighbouring communities such as Oadby, Knighton and Birstall, you’ll also find character homes and contemporary family properties.

Historically, door choices have reflected these settings. Timber for heritage character, uPVC for suburban affordability, and aluminium for sleek, modern schemes. Today, composite doors are the preferred choice across Leicester because they combine the authentic look of timber with superior insulation, robust security and minimal maintenance, ideal for everything from period terraces to new‑build homes.

Each Solidor composite door features a solid timber core, advanced multi‑point locking and excellent thermal performance, built to handle year‑round Midlands weather and busy residential streets.

With a wide selection of colours, glazing options and hardware finishes, you can tailor your entrance to complement local red‑brick terraces, bay‑fronted semis or contemporary facades.

Exploring styles is easy with our Door Designer: experiment with colours, glazing and hardware to create your perfect look, then send your design to one of our approved local installers who will be in touch to discuss your chosen look. Installers are experienced throughout Leicester and Leicestershire, ensuring a smooth, professional installation from survey to sign‑off.

If you’d like more guidance, our Door Buying Guide explains materials, security ratings, energy performance and upkeep in clear terms.

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

Composite door prices
in Leicester

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

With excellent insulating performance, impressive durability and minimal maintenance, a fully fitted composite door offers strong long‑term value, especially where energy efficiency and all‑weather reliability matter.

For composite doors in Leicester, 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 Leicester neighbourhoods, the average cost usually falls between £1,500 and £2,500.
