How Much Does a New Front Door Cost

A clear UK guide to new door prices

New front door cost varies more than most home upgrades because the spec choices have a bigger impact on the final price than the size of the door itself. The same opening can take a £1,200 uPVC door or a £4,500 hybrid, and the right answer depends on what you want from the door rather than what your neighbour paid.

These price bands reflect typical UK fitted ranges. Final pricing comes from the survey, where we factor in the exact spec, glazing, hardware and any site work.

New front door cost by material

uPVC door price

  • Supply-only, around £700 to £1,000
  • Supply and fit, around £900 to £1,300


Low-maintenance and budget-friendly. The most affordable option for back doors and front doors where price is the priority. Modern wood-grain foils and contemporary colours mean uPVC doesn’t have to look budget even at this price point.

Composite door price

  • Supply-only, from around £750
  • Supply and fit, around £1,200 to £2,000


The popular all-rounder. Composite doors balance security, insulation and style, and fitted prices commonly sit in the middle of this range. Premium specs with Ultion 3-Star cylinders, decorative glazing and custom RAL colours push toward the top.

Hybrid door price

  • Supply-only or supply and fit, mid-range £2,000 to £3,000
  • Premium, £4,000 and above


The contemporary choice. Steel-aluminium construction with the strongest thermal performance and slim sightlines. Often the premium pick for new builds and modern renovations.

Wooden door price

  • Supply-only, from around £900
  • Supply and fit, around £1,500 to £3,500


Real timber for period properties and conservation areas. Engineered timber sits at the more affordable end, solid oak at the higher end. Premium configurations with leaded glazing or biometric locking push higher.

What changes the price band

Several factors move a project up or down between the bands.

  • Security spec, including PAS 24 doorsets, TS 007 3-Star cylinders and Secured by Design certification
  • Glazing, from clear and textured to laminated security glass and acoustic options
  • Colour and finish, including dual-colour interiors and exteriors
  • Door furniture, including handles, knockers, letterplates and pull bars
  • Smart access, including keypads and app-controlled locks
  • Site work, including widening, low thresholds, making good and disposal of the old door


Adding side panels or top lights usually nudges the budget up. Custom colours, laminated glass and smart locks can push a project into the next band.

Supply only versus supply and fit

Supply-only lowers the upfront spend, but you organise the survey, fitting and Building Regulations compliance separately. Best for trade installers and DIY projects.

Supply and fit gives you one point of responsibility, FENSA-registered installation and the right paperwork for Building Regulations and future house sales. The FENSA certificate stays with the property and is often requested during conveyancing.

Value over time

For peace of mind, look for PAS 24 doorsets and TS 007 3-Star cylinders, plus RC2 or RC3 European security ratings where available.

For warmth, check door energy ratings and U-values. Lower U-values mean less heat loss, fewer draughts and lower heating bills over the years the door is in service.

How Much Do New Doors Cost FAQs

How much does a new front door cost in the UK?

A new front door costs around £900 to £1,300 fitted for uPVC, £1,200 to £2,000 for composite, £2,000 to £3,000 for hybrid and £1,500 to £3,500 for wooden doors. The final price depends on size, glazing, security spec, hardware and any site work needed during installation.

How much is a uPVC front door fitted?

A uPVC front door fitted typically costs £900 to £1,300 in the UK. Supply-only prices sit around £700 to £1,000. Larger sizes, premium hardware and custom RAL colours can push prices higher within the uPVC range.

How much does a composite door cost fitted?

A composite door fitted typically costs £1,200 to £2,000 in the UK. Standard configurations sit in the middle of this range. Premium specs with Ultion 3-Star cylinders, decorative glazing, dual-colour finishes and custom RAL colour matches push toward the upper end.

How much does a hybrid front door cost?

A hybrid front door costs £2,000 to £3,000 for mid-range specs and £4,000 or more for premium configurations. The price reflects the steel-aluminium construction, ROTO 10-point locking, triple or quadruple glazing options and contemporary aesthetic.

Why do two similar-looking front doors have different prices?

Two similar-looking front doors have different prices because of the details inside the spec. Security rating, glass type, hardware finish, colour choice, threshold spec, smart locks and the amount of site work involved all change the final figure even when the doors look the same in photos.

Is supply only cheaper than supply and fit?

Yes, supply-only is normally cheaper upfront because it only covers the door itself. Supply and fit includes the measured survey, FENSA-registered installation, trims, making good, waste disposal and the certification paperwork. Most homeowners choose supply and fit for the single point of responsibility.

Do side panels and decorative glass increase the cost?

Yes, side panels, top lights and decorative or laminated glass add to the overall cost. Side panels typically add £200 to £600 depending on size. Decorative or laminated glazing adds 15 to 30% over standard double glazing. These extras improve light, privacy or security but add materials and manufacturing complexity.
