Accoya Front Doors in Houghton Regis
Accoya Front Doors for Houghton Regis properties: a free measured survey, a fixed price, and a door that still closes cleanly in the winter.
Specifying a door for Houghton Regis
Houghton Regis is a relatively sheltered inland location, so the specification is driven more by how the door looks and how secure it is than by weather resistance.
Housing in and around Houghton Regis is largely 1920s–1930s semi-detached stock, which suits three-panel doors with a wide glazed head, often in a sunburst or geometric lead pattern. We match the mouldings and panel proportions to what is already on the street rather than fitting a generic pattern.

Common questions
What makes Accoya different?
It is softwood modified through acetylation so it barely absorbs moisture. Movement drops dramatically, coatings last far longer, and it carries a long durability warranty.
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.
How do I get an indicative price quickly?
Use the guide-price tool, or send sizes and a photograph. Either gives a realistic range within a working day.
Do you survey before quoting?
We give an indicative price from sizes or photographs, then survey free of charge before anything is made. The survey is what turns an estimate into a fixed price.
What timber do you use?
Engineered redwood for painted doors, dense hardwoods such as sapele or idigbo where more strength is wanted, European oak where the grain is the point, and Accoya on exposed and coastal openings.
Can you match an existing door?
Yes. We take the mouldings, panel proportions and glazing pattern from the original and reproduce them. If the door is beyond saving we can still copy it before it goes.
