Timber French Doors in Warwickshire
Timber French Doors for Warwickshire properties: a free measured survey, a fixed price, and a door that still closes cleanly in the winter.
4 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.

Common questions
How do French doors stay weathertight?
Through a rebated meeting stile, compression seals on both leaves and a shootbolt set that pulls the slave leaf into the frame at head and cill.
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.
