Solidor Composite Door Installation in Glanvilles Wootton
Tuesday, 9 December 2025
A homeowner in Glanville's Wootton contacted Bill Butters Windows to upgrade their front entrance with a high-quality, secure, and stylish door. The existing door was dated, draughty, and offered minimal insulation, which affected both the property’s energy efficiency and overall appearance. After a detailed consultation, the homeowner chose a Solidor composite door, renowned for its combination of traditional aesthetics, modern performance, and exceptional security. This choice ensured that the new entrance would provide a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution while enhancing the property’s kerb appeal.
The project presented several challenges. The homeowner required a door that would fit perfectly within the existing frame while meeting their expectations for energy efficiency, weather resistance, and security. Additionally, the new door needed to complement the property’s architectural style and provide a modern upgrade without compromising its traditional character. Bill Butters Windows worked closely with the homeowner to select the ideal Solidor door design, finish, and glazing options, ensuring a tailored solution that met all functional and aesthetic requirements.
The chosen Solidor door featured a timber-effect finish and high-quality double-glazed panels, offering a balance of style and practicality. Each door is manufactured using a solid composite core, which enhances security, insulation, and durability compared to traditional timber or standard PVC-U doors. The bespoke design allowed the door to perfectly match the property’s proportions and style, while offering superior thermal performance and resistance to weather and wear. By selecting a Solidor composite door, the homeowner benefited from a product that combines the elegance of traditional materials with the resilience of modern engineering.
