Bespoke Timber Doors in Tyne and Wear
Bespoke Timber Doors made to measure for homes across Tyne and Wear, surveyed on site and finished in the workshop before they are hung.
6 of the 10 towns we cover in Tyne and Wear are coastal, where Accoya or dense hardwood and marine-grade stainless ironmongery are the sensible specification.
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.

Common questions
How does a bespoke door start?
With the opening and a conversation. We draw the door, agree the mouldings and glazing, and only then cut timber.
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.
Will the colour fade?
Modern microporous coatings hold colour well, though very dark colours on south-facing elevations work hardest. We will advise if a chosen colour is likely to be a maintenance burden.
Do you work on listed buildings?
Regularly. Listed building consent is a separate process from planning, and we can supply the drawings and specification your application needs.
What happens if the door needs adjusting later?
First-season adjustment is included. Timber settles, buildings move, and a small tweak after a winter is normal rather than a fault.
Can you replace the frame as well as the door?
Yes, and often it is the better answer. A new leaf in a rotten frame will not seal properly however well the door itself is made.
