Timber Front Doors in Angus
Timber Front Doors made to measure for homes across Angus, surveyed on site and finished in the workshop before they are hung.
4 of the 7 towns we cover in Angus are coastal, where Accoya or dense hardwood and marine-grade stainless ironmongery are the sensible specification.
Timber moves. The trick is not to stop it but to allow for it — correct moisture content at the workshop, sealed end grain, a finish that lets vapour out and keeps water off, and clearances set for the season you fit in.

Common questions
Should a front door open in or out?
Almost always inwards in the UK, so the weatherbar and the rebate can shed water outwards and the hinges are protected from the elements.
Which ironmongery survives salt air?
Grade A4 (marine) stainless steel. Standard A2 stainless and lacquered brass both fail within a few years within about a mile of open water.
Does sea air really affect a timber door?
Yes, in two ways. Salt is hygroscopic so it holds moisture against the surface, and airborne chloride corrodes standard ironmongery quickly. Both are solvable at specification stage.
What door suits a Victorian terrace?
A four-panel door with a bolection moulding and an etched or obscured upper light. Stile widths matter — narrow modern stiles make the proportions look wrong immediately.
Is timber a sustainable choice?
Responsibly sourced timber is the only mainstream door material that stores carbon rather than emitting it in manufacture, and a timber door can be repaired rather than replaced.
Can you work to an architect's specification?
Yes. Send the drawings and schedule and we will price against them, flagging anything that will not perform as drawn.
