Composite Doors
in Newcastle

Newcastle’s housing is wonderfully varied. From Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Jesmond, Heaton and Fenham, to Tyneside flats across Byker and Shieldfield, 1930s bay‑fronted semis in Gosforth and Kingston Park, and modern apartments and townhouses along the Quayside, Ouseburn and city centre regeneration zones. Just across the river, Gateshead adds character terraces and contemporary developments, while the coast at Tynemouth and North Shields brings seaside villas and new‑build schemes.

Historically, door choices followed these settings. Timber for heritage façades, uPVC for suburban affordability and aluminium for crisp, contemporary lines.

Today, composite doors have become the preferred choice across Newcastle because they combine the authentic look of timber with superior insulation, robust security and minimal maintenance. Ideal for exposed coastal breezes, hillside streets and busy urban locations.

Each Solidor composite door features a solid timber core, advanced multi‑point locking and excellent thermal performance, perfectly suited to North East weather and the varied property types found around Newcastle and Tyneside.

With a wide range of colours, glazing designs and hardware finishes, you can tailor your entrance to complement red‑brick terraces, stone‑fronted period homes, Tyneside flats or sleek contemporary elevations.

Designing your door is easy with our Door Designer: explore colourways, glazing and hardware combinations, then share your preferred specification with one of our approved local installers. Installers cover Newcastle, Gateshead, Wallsend, North Shields and coastal areas, ensuring a smooth, professional installation from survey to completion.

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 Newcastle’s period and modern homes.

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

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