One competitive aspect, timber doors have over composite doors is their repairability and environmental sustainability. If timber doors happen to get scratched or damaged slightly, they can often be sanded down and redefined, whereas damage to composite doors may require further repairs.

Timber is a natural insulator, meaning that timber doors have a strong level of insulation, helping to keep a home warm in the cold months, and cool in hot months.
Timber doors can be assessed for resealing by examining the aesthetics of the surface. When a timber door shows visible signs of wear, or if moisture no longer beads upon the surface, then these are indicators that the door would benefit from resealing.
