Timber Bi-Fold Doors in Melksham
Timber Bi-Fold Doors made to measure for homes across Melksham, surveyed on site and finished in the workshop before they are hung.
Specifying a door for Melksham
Melksham sees a normal share of west-coast weather without the salt load of a seafront opening. Engineered stiles and a properly sealed bottom rail handle it comfortably.
Housing in and around Melksham 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
Can timber bi-folds run smoothly long term?
Yes, on a top-hung track with the weight carried by the head rather than the cill. It keeps the running gear out of the water and the panels aligned.
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.
Can you supply just the door leaf?
Yes, if the existing frame is sound and correctly sized. We will check it at survey — hanging a new leaf in a failed frame wastes the door.
How much does a timber door cost?
Guide prices start from the figures shown on each product page, supplied and fitted. The variables are size, timber, glazing and ironmongery, and the survey fixes the number.
Can a timber door be made wheelchair accessible?
Yes. A low-threshold or ramped cill can be specified without losing the weather seal, and the leaf can be widened where the structural opening allows.
Will the colour fade?
Modern microporous coatings hold colour well, though very dark colours on south-facing elevations work hardest. We will advise if a chosen colour is likely to be a maintenance burden.
