Composite Doors in Shaftesbury
Shaftesbury is home for us. Our base is at Melbury Business Park, just outside the town, and the business takes its name from Gold Hill. The town has everything from Georgian and Victorian stone houses along the High Street, Bimport and Salisbury Street to cottages in Enmore Green and St James and the newer homes around Mampitts and Wincombe. Whatever the house, the front door sets the tone. A good composite door is warm, secure and needs almost no looking after, and the right style suits the house rather than fighting it.
Goldhill Glazing is a family-run window and door company based in Shaftesbury. We take on fewer projects than the big names so every installation gets the time it needs. Kenny surveys every home himself, and your door is fitted by our own team from start to finish.
As this is our home town, we know how much Shaftesbury’s doorways matter. Greensand stone cottages around Gold Hill, Enmore Green and Cann tend to suit a cottage door in a soft heritage colour, while the Georgian and Victorian townhouses look best with a panelled door in a woodgrain finish. Much of the centre is a conservation area, so Kenny will tell you if a new door on a listed building or in that area may need consent from Dorset Council. Towards Wincombe and Mampitts, newer homes often suit a contemporary door or our premium R9 entrance door, and a stable door makes good sense for a country kitchen.
Composite Doors for Shaftesbury's Period and Modern Homes
In the old town, a panelled door in a heritage colour with traditional furniture looks right at home. On newer houses, a contemporary design or a bold colour can lift the whole front of the house. If you want a door with a traditional timber look, our R9 entrance door recreates the proportions of a 19th-century door without any of the upkeep.
Recent work in the town includes a sage green composite door, an agate grey composite door and a new composite front door, and nearby a composite door in Motcombe.

Composite Doors Fitted Properly in Shaftesbury
We would rather fit fewer doors and get every one of them right. This is what you can expect when you choose Goldhill Glazing.

Your door is fitted by our own team, who take as much care inside your home as they do with the door itself, and leave everything as clean and tidy as they found it.
Secure as Standard
Multi-point locking comes as standard, our solid core doors have an AV4 slam lock, and every glazed panel uses toughened safety glass.
FENSA Registered
We certify every door we fit to Building Regulations ourselves, and you receive a FENSA certificate for your records.
Composite Doors in Shaftesbury: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Shaftesbury do you cover?
All of Shaftesbury, including the town centre, Enmore Green, St James and Cann, along with Motcombe, Melbury Abbas, Cann Common, the Donheads, Fontmell Magna, Compton Abbas, East Stour and the surrounding villages, as well as Gillingham and Tisbury.
Can you match a new door to my windows?
Yes. Our composite doors come in a wide range of colours and woodgrain finishes, often with a different colour inside and out, so your new door can match your windows or stand out on its own. Kenny will bring samples when he visits.
How secure are your composite doors?
Very. Every door has multi-point locking, and our solid core doors have an AV4 slam lock that locks automatically when the door closes. Glazed panels use toughened safety glass, and the door and frame are fitted by our own team so everything locks down firmly.
What guarantee do your doors come with?
Your door is guaranteed for 10 years, hardware for 2 years and our workmanship for 10 years, all backed by an insurance-backed guarantee through HomePro.
How much does a composite door cost?
It depends on the style, size, colour, glass and hardware you choose. Every door is made to measure, so the only way to give an accurate price is to survey your home. The survey and quote are free, and we are rarely beaten on price for a genuine like-for-like quotation.
Can I change my windows and doors in the conservation area?
Usually, yes. Much of the old town around Gold Hill, the High Street and Bimport is a conservation area, so it is worth checking with Dorset Council before changing the look of the front of a house, and listed homes need listed building consent. Kenny knows the town well and will tell you what is likely to be needed when he visits.
