Timber doors in Kent

We survey, make and fit made-to-measure timber doors throughout Kent, covering 14 towns from the workshop to the fitted door.

Coastal openings. Margate, Ramsgate, Folkestone, Dover, Whitstable, Deal 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. Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks 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.

Common questions

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 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.

What finish options are there?

Factory spray in any RAL or heritage colour, translucent stains, and natural oils on oak. All applied and cured in controlled conditions before the door ships.

Do you remove the old door?

Yes, and we take it away. If the frame is sound we can hang into it; if it has rotted at the foot we will say so at survey rather than after.

Can you supply just the door leaf?

Yes, if the existing frame is sound and correctly sized. We will check it at survey — hanging a new leaf in a failed frame wastes the door.
