Common questions

What door suits a stone cottage?

A ledged, braced and boarded door with long strap hinges. Openings are usually low and rarely square, so the door is made to the opening as found.

Will a timber door swell and stick?

Timber moves with humidity, which is why clearances, sealed end grain and a breathable finish matter. A door made to the correct moisture content and finished on all six faces stays workable through the seasons.

What is engineered timber and why use it?

Engineered stiles are laminated from several sections with the grain alternated, so the door resists twisting far better than a solid section of the same size. Under paint it is the more stable choice.

Do you fit as well as supply?

Both. Most customers take supply and fit, which keeps the guarantee in one place. Supply-only is available if you have your own joiner.

What glazing goes in a timber door?

Sealed units in a range of obscure, etched, leaded and clear finishes, bedded and beaded from the inside so the glass cannot be removed from outside.

How energy efficient is a timber door?

A modern insulated timber door with a sealed unit performs comparably to composite alternatives, and timber itself is a far poorer conductor than aluminium or steel.
