Timber Back Doors in North Yorkshire
Timber Back Doors for North Yorkshire properties: a free measured survey, a fixed price, and a door that still closes cleanly in the winter.
2 of the 13 towns we cover in North Yorkshire are coastal, where Accoya or dense hardwood and marine-grade stainless ironmongery are the sensible specification, and 9 carry designated conservation areas where the glazing pattern and mouldings need to match what is already there.
A timber door is a structural component that happens to be decorative. Get the species, the finish and the weatherbar right and it will outlast anything moulded; get them wrong and it will swell, drop and stick within a couple of winters.
Price and lead time in North Yorkshire

Common questions
Does a back door need the same specification as the front?
Usually more. Back doors are often on the weather side, get harder use and see wetter conditions from the garden.
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 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 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.
Do I need building regulations approval?
Replacing a door like-for-like usually does not need approval, but the new door must meet current thermal and safety-glazing standards. We specify to comply as standard.
Can you make non-standard shapes?
Arched heads, splayed jambs, tapered cills and out-of-square openings are routine. Old buildings are rarely square and we build to the opening as found.
