Windows and doors for your home, who'd have thought there would be so many options? It used to be that wooden windows were the standard, then style started to come into it with sash windows, leaded windows, round windows and so on. Now it's all of the above in UPVC, double glazed, triple glazed and now composite. You can have square windows, round windows, rectangular windows and arched windows and now the same applies to the top and glazed panels of the unassuming and under-praised front door.

So if you've got a period property and you're looking for new windows or a new composite door in keeping with the architecture, this is more than possible these days. Composite doors and windows can be made to order and to your exact specifications so no matter how elaborate your tastes are, you'll be able to find exterior house furniture to suit.

Arched windows characterised the Art Nouveau period of the turn of the 20th Century as this was a decadent period with stylised flowers and organic forms in favour with artists and collectors alike. Composite arched windows can be double glazed with bespoke glass allowing you to be energy efficient without compromising on style.

The Georgian period of architecture saw large and high windows divided into rectangular panes and mostly with white frames, meaning clean lines. Georgian houses boasted a lot of windows and the amount of natural light they let in is one of the reasons why this style of architecture has remained so popular.

The Victorian era saw the emergence of the sash window, a beautiful and highly functional style of window which characterises many new builds as well as period houses. Some Victorian windows saw ornate glazing which demonstrated wealth and decadence but unlike Georgian windows the panes of glass were largely plane, with no panels.

Gothic windows are unmistakable, they're imposing, elaborate and a real feature of gothic buildings and modern copies alike. Architects of the gothic period poured a lot of design features into their windows, from panelling and glazing to windows of enormous proportions.

If you want or like any of the above styles of windows and doors, go for the composite option because they're strong, secure and look great. The other advantage is that they require very little maintenance. Whereas wooden window frames and wooden front doors need annual attention, composite doors can withstand all weathers and any knocks they might get.

With a wide range of composite doors available to purchase online including both front and composite back doors you'll easily find the right doors for your home.
