Timber doors in Isle of Wight

We survey, make and fit made-to-measure timber doors throughout Isle of Wight, covering 8 towns from the workshop to the fitted door.

Coastal openings. Newport, Ryde, Cowes, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor and others 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.

Common questions

How often should a coastal door be recoated?

Three to five years on exposed elevations, against seven or more inland. Salt-facing elevations always go first.

What timber holds up best near the coast?

Accoya first, then dense hardwoods. Modified timber barely moves with humidity swings, which is exactly the load a coastal door is under.

What door suits a 1930s semi?

A three-panel door with a wide glazed head, often leaded in a sunburst or geometric pattern. The glazed area is proportionally larger than on a Victorian door.

What is the difference between a door and a doorset?

A doorset is the leaf, frame, seals and ironmongery supplied together and pre-hung. It fits faster and performs more predictably than parts assembled on site.

Do you handle planning applications?

We do not submit on your behalf, but we produce the elevational drawings, sections and specification that conservation and planning officers ask for.

What about draughts around the frame?

Compression seals in the rebate handle the leaf; the gap between frame and structure is a separate job, insulated and sealed on fitting rather than filled with expanding foam alone.
