    We're looking to change our front door and I've had quotes from 2 sources for composite doors, one for an Ultratech door by mun***r joi***y and one for a palladio door by prof*** dev*****ents (which is about €1000 more!). Anyone any recommendations on either? Or is it all just advertising and would we be better off sticking to a PVC door?
    I'm clueless on this subject so any tips most welcome!

    I had Profile Developments supply my front door for my house.

    Its a compostie door and has a U-Value of 0.283

    Its a great door and certainly does keep the heat in and the sound out.:)

    We went with the ultratech one from profile developments. I had got samples of both doors and the the ultratech was by far heavier and sturdier. So far we've no complaints.

    is profile dev a company of munster . i am wondering if iam looking at the same door . Its a solid door made of wood and some thin sheets of cork am0ng the solid wood with 2 sheets of steel on either side and then some more wood sheeting over that compacted again . They say the reason is so no warping etc for the cork and steel to strentheng?
    How long have you had the door for .

    When i saw the sample it look like some hard chunk of wood thats very tuff
