Most people look at composite doors and just see very nice front doors. Composite doors are not just suited to front entrance ways though. They are suitable for all external doors, both front and back, with styles and options to suit both situations.
Since most back doorways lead to an enclosed/private garden or yard, the popular option for back doors is a door with a large window, to allow plenty of light through and to allow the occupier to view the garden. For shared gardens and less private doorways, a large window can be backed with obscure glass to allow light to pass at the same time as offering privacy. For complete privacy, there are a range of entirely solid doors, or, if you require some light to pass, doors with glass in only the very top of the door.
Composite doors can open inwards or outwards, which makes them perfect for all situations - if you require a front door which opens inwards and a back door which opens outwards for example. In addition, the doors can be hinged on the left or the right. With this kind of flexibility, all you need to decide on is the style, colour and design you prefer the best.
When it comes to handles, there is also a choice of function. Lever lever handles are the most typical option for back doors, allowing the door to be opened without the key, unless the deadbolt has been locked.
The great thing about using composite doors as back doors, is they are very weather-resistant - they will not fade in full sun or rot if they get the full pelt of rain constantly. Instead of requiring fancy cleaners, when they get dirty you can just rub them down with water and a sponge. If you have pets, a composite door is perfect as it does not scratch or dent either.
Composite back doors come in a range of colours to suit your home and tastes, including dark and light wood finishes that give a traditional warmth to your home.
