Our Conservation Area Doors are made to order for Llandrindod Wells, spray-finished and cured before delivery so the door arrives protected.
Specifying a door for Llandrindod Wells
Llandrindod Wells is an exposed inland location, taking wind-driven rain off higher ground. The load on a door here is water forced against the joints rather than salt, so the priority is shedding water away from the bottom rail and keeping the coating film intact.
Housing in and around Llandrindod Wells is largely stone and rendered cottage stock, which suits ledged, braced and boarded doors with a plank face and long strap hinges. We match the mouldings and panel proportions to what is already on the street rather than fitting a generic pattern.

Common questions
Will the council accept a new timber door?
Usually yes, if it matches the original pattern, mouldings and glazing. Refusals almost always follow proposals that change the appearance rather than the material.
What door suits a stone cottage?
A ledged, braced and boarded door with long strap hinges. Openings are usually low and rarely square, so the door is made to the opening as found.
What is the difference between a door and a doorset?
A doorset is the leaf, frame, seals and ironmongery supplied together and pre-hung. It fits faster and performs more predictably than parts assembled on site.
Do you handle planning applications?
We do not submit on your behalf, but we produce the elevational drawings, sections and specification that conservation and planning officers ask for.
What about draughts around the frame?
Compression seals in the rebate handle the leaf; the gap between frame and structure is a separate job, insulated and sealed on fitting rather than filled with expanding foam alone.
Do you fit in winter?
Yes. Clearances are set for the season and the finish is already cured, so there is no waiting for weather to paint on site.
