Exploring the Unique Features of Virtuoso Doors: Why They Stand Out
When it comes to making a good first impression, your front door does all the talking. In recent years, composite doors have become the preferred choice for many homeowners across Kent, combining security, thermal efficiency, and style in one package.
At Amazing Glazing, we’ve seen increasing interest in premium composite doors, with Virtuoso doors standing out as a particularly popular option among our customers. We’ve written this piece to explain precisely why Virtuoso composite doors are one of the best doors available on the market.
What Are Composite Doors?
Composite doors are manufactured using multiple materials layered together – typically a solid timber core surrounded by insulating materials and finished with a Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) outer skin. This construction creates a door that looks like wood but performs better in terms of security, insulation, durability, and maintenance.
The Virtuoso Difference
As a proud supplier of Virtuoso doors, we at Amazing Glazing can confidently say these aren’t just any composite doors. Virtuoso has earned its reputation as one of the UK’s most respected door manufacturers, and for good reason.
Premium Craftsmanship
Each Virtuoso door is made to measure with:
- A rigid subframe for stability
- A thermally efficient foam-filled core
- An impact-resistant 5mm GRP outer skin
- An aluminium U-rail along the leading edge that prevents bowing in extreme temperatures
This combination creates a strong, efficient, secure door that can stand proud as the front of your home for decades.
Exceptional Security Features
Security is paramount in door design, especially for your front door, and Virtuoso doors excel in this area. Each door comes with:
- Yale multipoint locking systems as standard
- High-security cylinders with anti-snap, anti-bump, anti-pick, and anti-drill technology
- BS 8529/PAS24 approval
- Secured by Design accreditation (the official police security initiative)
Virtuoso uses the Yale Lockmaster Auto Engage system, which automatically secures the door when closed without needing to lift the handle.
Energy Efficiency and Sustainability
Virtuoso doors achieve excellent energy ratings (A-rated as standard), helping to keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer. The foam-filled core provides superior insulation, while air-tight twin seals prevent draughts.
Design Flexibility
Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Virtuoso doors is the sheer range of design options. With Amazing Glazing, you can choose from:
- Over 80 door styles across Traditional, Cottage, Contemporary, and Ultra-chic Aluminium collections
- Seven standard colours, 14 superior colours, or any custom RAL colour
