Tried and Tested

When you choose a Bowater Composite Door for your home, you’re choosing to have total peace of mind. Because every single one in our extensive range has undergone a series of stringent, independent tests to prove its technical and thermal performance is second-to-none.
 

Firstly, every style of Bowater's Composite Door comes with Secured by Design approval. This is the official UK Police flagship initiative supporting the principles of 'designing out crime'. The aim of which is to reduce the vulnerability of people and property to crime by building security into domestic and commercial building projects right from the very outset.

Secured by Design promotes the use of security standards for a wide range of building applications and products and has introduced stringent test standards that identify those products which are more likely to resist common forms of attack and therefore give better protection to homes and business premises and their occupants.

We’re proud to say that every style of Bowater Composite Door in our range has passed these Secured by Design tests with flying colours. So whether it’s a replacement front door or one on a new property, you know you can have complete confidence in us.
 
Bowater Composite Doors are also compliant with and certified to British Standards PAS23 / 24 which demonstrate the performance and enhanced security performance requirements for door assemblies.

And, not only are our doors proven to be secure, they’re weather tested to extreme degrees during the design and development process. This is to ensure that they can take whatever the British weather has to throw at them – come rain, shine, snow, hail, sleet or gale force winds.  
 
So, when you choose a front door from our Composite range, you know it’s passed a range of stringent security and weather tests. Which means, you can lock it last thing at night with utter and complete peace of mind.
