Maintenance Free Composite Doors for House Builders
Everyone loves traditional doors, but hates the problems that come with them. With this in mind, Octaveward, who specialise in major building components in GRP and other advanced materials, have introduced Samson composite doors. These strong and attractive doors look traditional but use modern materials and technology to withstand harsh use, physical attack and the worst the British weather can do. They provide a sustainable long-term maintenance free answer for both public and private housing.
Samson composite doors have three major elements. Inner and outer moulded GRP facings are tough and weather resistant. These are reinforced with inner frames of a high density composite material. Finally the core is filled with rigid polyurethane foam that fills the void completely and bonds to all surfaces.
Doors can be made to suit virtually any frame size. For many housing projects a single style/colour maybe chosen, however, there are many styles of door available. These include simulated wood finishes and bold permanent colours, including both solid and glazed models. There are multiple glazing and hardware options so that each property can also have a truly individual appearance. Clients also have a choice of white or simulated wood effect frame material in Envirowood, pultruded GRP or reinforced Upvc.
The doors are tough. In addition to taking everyday knocks from prams, cycles and removal men they have been subject to severe attack and weathering tests and are approved by the police under the ‘Secured by Design’ standard. They also address the need for sustainability with maximum heat loss rates of 2Watts per m² per degree C of temperature difference between inner and outer leaf. In many cases, depending on the design selected, rates will be even lower.
Octaveward provide a 10 year guarantee for Samson doors with the expectation that the long life materials and solid construction will ensure a working life considerably exceeding this. The company provide a national service via a network of accredited installers and is happy to work with property owners, managers, contractors, architects and others to provide doors that combine aesthetic appeal with long life, high efficiency and low maintenance.
