We survey, make and fit made-to-measure timber doors throughout Dumfries and Galloway, covering 7 towns from the workshop to the fitted door.
Coastal openings. Stranraer, Annan, Kirkcudbright sit close enough to open water that salt-laden air drives the specification: Accoya or dense hardwood, a high-build microporous coating and grade A4 marine stainless ironmongery.
Conservation areas. Castle Douglas, Kirkcudbright, Moffat carry designated conservation areas or listed frontages. Like-for-like timber replacement is rarely refused; changing material or glazing pattern usually is. We produce drawings for consent applications.
All twenty-four types are available here, supplied and fitted with a ten-year guarantee.

See bespoke timber doors →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.
Wash the door twice a year with mild soapy water and check the bottom rail and cill for standing water. Recoating intervals depend on exposure and aspect — south and west elevations go first.
Very few are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several heights and the door is made to suit, with the frame packed and scribed on fitting.
Ten years on the joinery and the factory finish, with the survey record kept so any claim is straightforward to deal with.
A deposit is taken when the order is placed and the balance on completion. Nothing is payable before the survey and the written quotation.
Everything from period butt hinges and rim locks to modern multipoint systems, in finishes from polished brass to satin stainless. Coastal sites get marine-grade stainless as standard.
Each town page carries its own exposure, housing character and planning notes.
Send sizes or a photograph and we will come back with an indicative range, then survey free of charge before anything is made.
