Timber Double Doors in Surrey
Timber Double Doors made to measure for homes across Surrey, surveyed on site and finished in the workshop before they are hung.
5 carry designated conservation areas where the glazing pattern and mouldings need to match what is already there.
Timber moves. The trick is not to stop it but to allow for it — correct moisture content at the workshop, sealed end grain, a finish that lets vapour out and keeps water off, and clearances set for the season you fit in.

Common questions
Do both leaves need to open?
Not necessarily. A fixed slave leaf with flush bolts is more weathertight and cheaper; make both leaves working only if you will actually use the full width.
Do I need permission to change a door in a conservation area?
Often. Conservation area status can remove permitted development rights for front elevations, and Article 4 directions tighten it further. Check with the local planning authority before ordering.
Can modern sealed units go in a heritage door?
Slim-profile units down to around 11mm can, and they are frequently accepted where a chunky modern unit would not be. Some listed buildings still require single glazing.
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.
