Local Composite Door Repairs
BLD Locksmith & Window Repairs covers composite door work across Greenwich SE10. The single biggest constraint is the **Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site** (inscribed 1997) and the surrounding Conservation Area network — West Greenwich CA, Greenwich Town Centre CA, Greenwich Park CA, East Greenwich CA, Ashburnham Triangle CA. Three of those (West Greenwich, East Greenwich, Ashburnham Triangle) carry **Article 4 Directions** which legally remove permitted-development rights for door replacement — a planning application is required and a generic white composite slab will be refused. RBG's Greenwich Town Centre Colour Guidance Note (Dec 2016) specifies acceptable styles and colours.
That pushes most composite work to three places outside the heritage core. The first is RBG council and HA stock on inland post-war blocks off Trafalgar Road, Pelton Road and Christchurch Way. The second is the Greenwich Millennium Village (Ralph Erskine + EPR, started 2000, ~1,800 homes complete, Vistry restarting Phase 5 in 2024 with 203 new homes) and the Knight Dragon Peninsula masterplan, where the developer/managing agent specifies the door package. The third is post-2010 infill outside the CAs.
For Article 4 streets we supply heritage-look woodgrain composites (Solidor, Endurance, Doorstop) in stile-and-rail or panelled styles a conservation officer can approve. For Crooms Hill, Royal Hill, Gloucester Circus and the Georgian terrace cohort, listed-building considerations often push the answer toward like-for-like timber repair rather than replacement at all.

FAQ
Not without planning permission. West Greenwich, East Greenwich and Ashburnham Triangle are all Article 4 Direction areas, meaning Royal Borough of Greenwich requires a planning application for replacement of windows and doors. RBG's Greenwich Town Centre Colour Guidance Note (December 2016) specifies acceptable door styles and colours, and a generic white slab will be refused. We supply heritage-look woodgrain composites (Solidor, Endurance, Doorstop) sized to the original opening that conservation officers will accept.
Yes. Greenwich Millennium Village (Ralph Erskine + EPR Architects, started 2000, ~1,800 homes complete with build-out targeting 2,800+ — Vistry restarted Phase 5 in 2024 with 203 new homes) and the wider Knight Dragon Peninsula masterplan (56 ha, target up to 15,000 homes) run a different door package to the heritage core. Earliest GMV phase composites are now ~25 years old. We supply replacement slabs that match the managing agent's spec.
Yes. Royal Borough of Greenwich council and HA stock concentrates on inland post-war blocks off Trafalgar Road, Pelton Road and Christchurch Way — outside the Article 4'd listed core. Right-to-buy leaseholders are the natural composite-replacement market and we supply doors that meet the block's communal-stair fire-door spec, replacing just the failed component (gearbox / hinge / cylinder) where the existing slab is sound.
