Specifying a door for Welwyn Garden City
Welwyn Garden City is a relatively sheltered inland location, so the specification is driven more by how the door looks and how secure it is than by weather resistance.
Housing in and around Welwyn Garden City is largely post-war and mixed estate stock, which suits flush or two-panel doors with a clean square-edged moulding. 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 post-war house?
A flush or two-panel door with a square-edged moulding and a simple glazed light. Clean lines suit the elevation better than applied period detail.
Is there a guarantee?
Ten years on the joinery and the factory finish, with the survey record kept so any claim is straightforward to deal with.
Do you take a deposit?
A deposit is taken when the order is placed and the balance on completion. Nothing is payable before the survey and the written quotation.
What ironmongery do you supply?
Everything from period butt hinges and rim locks to modern multipoint systems, in finishes from polished brass to satin stainless. Coastal sites get marine-grade stainless as standard.
Can you fit a cat flap or letter plate?
Both, and it is better done in the workshop where the aperture can be sealed properly rather than cut on site.
