Doors
- Will all my internal doors be the same size?
- No. Don't assume all your doors are the same size & thickness - Height, width & thickness can vary from door to door. Measure them all!!
- What type of door am I looking for?
- Gone are the days when a door was just for opening and closing, they are now seen as an item of furniture, and chosen correctly can create an impact, enhancing the look of your home. Think carefully about the style you want to achieve. Your doors and fittings should compliment your homes existing features, from the traditional panelled door to the more contemporary flush veneered range, the choice is endless. The right door will last you a lifetime!!!
- Budget
- There is a range of doors to suit every budget. Starting from the economy range of white doors to American White Oak. Use our quotation service and let us work out the price.
- Will all my doors be the same colour?
- No. Timber is a natural product and therefore colour can vary from door to door. Each door is in its own way unique; after all they're not all from the same tree!! This also applies to pre-finished veneered doors - although every care is taken to colour match at time of manufacture variations can occur. If an exact colour match is important to you then a foil veneer is the option. Foil veneer doors are timber-structured, but with a man-made facing that replicates the look of wood veneer. As the foil is machine generated, the finish can be completely controlled, so that every door with one particular finish looks exactly the same. There are four standard finishes oak, ash, beech or cherry
- Will my doors come finished?
- No. The majority of our doors are supplied in the raw for site decoration. This gives you the choice of finish. We can offer a lacquering service if required. Flush Veneered doors are pre-finished during manufacture.
- What if my doors are a non-standard size?
- No problem. We can offer a made to measure service for most doors. You can even design your own!! Contact our sales office for further details.
- Will I need a fire door?
- In some cases a fire door is required in a domestic situation. For example a door leading from your house to the garage will need to be a fire door. This shouldn't be an obstacle when choosing a design. Most doors are available with a matching fire door as an option. If we can't match the design we can certainly match the finish to compliment your doors. Check with our sales office for further details.
