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 modern estate house?
A square-cut contemporary door with a long vertical glazed light, usually in a factory-sprayed colour. Timber gives a warmth that composite doors on the same street do not have.
How long does a made-to-measure timber door take?
Most doors run six to ten weeks from survey to fitting, depending on the specification and the finish. Repairs and re-hangs are usually inside three weeks. We confirm dates at survey rather than guessing at enquiry stage.
Will a timber door swell and stick?
Timber moves with humidity, which is why clearances, sealed end grain and a breathable finish matter. A door made to the correct moisture content and finished on all six faces stays workable through the seasons.
What is engineered timber and why use it?
Engineered stiles are laminated from several sections with the grain alternated, so the door resists twisting far better than a solid section of the same size. Under paint it is the more stable choice.
Do you fit as well as supply?
Both. Most customers take supply and fit, which keeps the guarantee in one place. Supply-only is available if you have your own joiner.
