New Front Door

    We are a looking at replacing our front door. Our hallway has always been very cold and there have been consistent drafts from the front door. Also, the front door contains 3 panels of single pane glass which make up about 30% of the total door.

    We are getting Quotes from fairco and orion windows this week for front doors. Any other recommendations?

    I have a few questions.

    1. fairco have lots of reviews on boards for windows, but not doors. I can't find any reviews for Orion Windows in Malahide. Any experiences of either with doors?

    2. We've been quoted on PVC and Composite Doors. I hate PVC and am leaning towards a composite door even though they are a little more expensive. Basically, I'm looking for low maintenance and most importantly, insulation and heat retention.
