Timber Back Doors in Huddersfield
Timber Back Doors made to measure for homes across Huddersfield, surveyed on site and finished in the workshop before they are hung.
Specifying a door for Huddersfield
Huddersfield 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 Huddersfield is largely Victorian terraced and villa stock, which suits four-panel doors with a bolection moulding and an etched or obscured upper light. We match the mouldings and panel proportions to what is already on the street rather than fitting a generic pattern.

Common questions
Does a back door need the same specification as the front?
Usually more. Back doors are often on the weather side, get harder use and see wetter conditions from the garden.
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 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.
Is timber a sustainable choice?
Responsibly sourced timber is the only mainstream door material that stores carbon rather than emitting it in manufacture, and a timber door can be repaired rather than replaced.
