Timber Double Doors in Aviemore
We make and fit Timber Double Doors throughout Aviemore — measured properly, built from timber chosen for the exposure, and adjusted once they are in.
Specifying a door for Aviemore
Aviemore 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 Aviemore 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
Do both leaves need to open?
Not necessarily. A fixed slave leaf with flush bolts is more weathertight and cheaper; make both leaves working only if you will actually use the full width.
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 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.
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.
