The PVC door is probably one of the most common types of door in use today, they are ridged and strong, last a long time and they are very secure.
Before PVC doors became popular the latest in door was the aluminum door, this made a tough strong alternative to wood although the wooden door never really did die away.
PVC doors are extremely weather proof provided they are fitted correctly, they have sealing gaskets in the frame and when you lift the handle up on the door it pulls the door tightly shut creating a tight seal which will not allow any moisture in.
