Timber Stable Doors in Cornwall
Timber Stable Doors for Cornwall properties: a free measured survey, a fixed price, and a door that still closes cleanly in the winter.
8 of the 12 towns we cover in Cornwall are coastal, where Accoya or dense hardwood and marine-grade stainless ironmongery are the sensible specification, and 5 carry designated conservation areas where the glazing pattern and mouldings need to match what is already there.
Most door problems are not the door. They are an opening that has moved, a cill that sheds water backwards, or a finish that was never cured properly. A survey is what separates a door that works from one you fight with.
Price and lead time in Cornwall
Timber Stable Doors start at £1,600 per door supplied and fitted, VAT included, with a typical lead time of 6–8 weeks. Try the indicative price tool for a range, or send sizes and we will be closer.
Common questions
Do the two halves lock together?
Yes. A stable door has a shootbolt or drop bolt that ties the leaves so the whole door operates as one when closed.
What drawings will I need for an application?
Usually an elevation at 1:20, a section through the door and frame showing mouldings, and a written specification of timber, finish and glazing. We produce these.
What do conservation officers usually object to?
Wrong material, wrong glazing pattern, and mouldings that are close but not right. Timber matching the original pattern is rarely refused.
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.
Can you fit a cat flap or letter plate?
Both, and it is better done in the workshop where the aperture can be sealed properly rather than cut on site.
How do you handle out-of-hours or emergency repairs?
Making a door secure and weathertight is usually possible quickly; the permanent repair follows once parts are available.
