Crowlas: A Straightforward Composite Upgrade

By Cornwall Composite Doors · 25 December 1969 · 4 min read

Bypassed by the main road and set back from the coast, Crowlas is one of our more straightforward installs — here's what most homeowners choose.

A quiet village with modest exposure

Crowlas sits just off the main Penzance road, close to Ludgvan and Long Rock, in a position that's sheltered compared with the exposed coastal villages nearby at Marazion and Hayle. Most of the installs we do here are straightforward replacements of tired original doors rather than urgent weather-damage repairs, which keeps the specification conversation simple.

What we typically fit here

Standard composite doorsets with our usual stainless fixings and full weatherseal are more than sufficient for Crowlas' exposure level — there's no need for the storm bars or heavy-duty threshold detail we'd specify on a beachfront property nearby. That keeps costs sensible without compromising on the PAS24 security rating or the 10-year guarantee.

Colour and style preferences locally

Crowlas' housing is a mix of older cottages and later infill, and we see a fairly even split between heritage colours like Chartwell Green for the older stock and contemporary Anthracite Grey or White for newer builds. There's no dominant local style the way there is in, say, a harbour village — it comes down to the individual property.

Quick installation, minimal disruption

Because Crowlas properties rarely present unusual access or structural challenges, installs here typically run to schedule without complication — a single crew, a day's work, and the old doorset removed and disposed of as part of the job.
