Universal Composite Doors has now opened its door to even more customers with a new addition to an already extensive range of doors – a new premium 70mm foam filled GRP, twin rebated door is the latest addition to the Galactic Collection.

Universal Composite Doors has rapidly grown since its conception – it is just into its sixth year.

With a £1.25million investment in the summer of 2021 to a 27,000sq.ft factory with new state-of-the-art plant and equipment, Universal or UCD as the company is better known, has blossomed into one of the leading manufacturers in the sector.

Of real importance to Universal’s MD Neil Peck, was for the company to remain true to the way he likes to do business, building strong partnerships with its customers and in turn supporting them to offer the very best options to their customers. 

To do that, Neil has surrounded himself with a really strong leadership team. Each department is driven with a focus to do the very best they can, whether that’s production, operations, sales or customer service. The team has grown rapidly to support the business growth and they have been able to maintain the high service levels throughout the business.

 

The Galactic Collection

As a result of a vision to be a one-stop shop for all things ‘composite doors’ Universal offers the broadest range of composite doors in the UK. This new door sits alongside an existing 44mm solid core thermoplastic door and 44mm foam GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) door.

With a range of door styles including traditional and contemporary doors, solid doors, stable doors, twin doors, door & a half and back doors with pet flaps, the Galactic Collection, is the result of being understanding customer needs and spotting an opportunity in the market.

 

Universal’s high-performance doors promise to deliver in 5 key areas of importance to their customers:

• A++ Energy Rated – 50mm triple-glazed units as standard, along with a 70mm thick door, provides excellent all-round energy performance.
• Enhanced Weathering – the rebated door is standard on all designs, providing an additional internal perimeter seal for enhanced weathering, thermal and security performance.
• Secured By Design – high performance multi-point locking and rebate hinges to all doors, ensuring they pass the police-backed accreditation.
• 59% Thicker Composite Door – manufactured using a 70mm thick composite door, providing 17% more thermal efficiency than a traditional 44mm timber panelled door.

Exclusive Colour Range – all doors are available in an extensive range of RAL colours, which have been inspired by Farrow & Ball. All door frames can be coloured to match. 

Marketing support

Universal offers point-of-sale material that has been designed to make it even easier for customers to sell. From brochures, leaflets and colour booklets, the Galactic Collection marketing material includes a bespoke sales kit with product samples so that customers can see in person what to expect. What’s more, all Galactic doors are provided with a ‘home kit’ that contains touch-up paint to ensure the doors look fantastic for many years to come. 

Raising the bar

Despite its huge success already, Universal Composite Doors’ commitment to the composite door market is evident as it continues to raise the bar, providing high-quality, value for money doors and exceptional service for customers.
