Lincolnshire is a county of limestone cottages, Georgian market-town stock and generous rural plots. That is exactly the kind of building stock a front door has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For timber front doors in Lincolnshire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Timber Front Doors in Lincolnshire — common questions
How long does a front door take?
Eight to ten weeks. The door is made, primed, glazed and finished in the workshop, and fitting takes a day. We can hang a temporary door if the opening cannot be left.
What finish lasts longest outside?
A factory-applied microporous paint system in a mid or light colour. Dark colours on a south-facing door get very hot and stress the finish. Expect to wash it annually and recoat every six to eight years.
What timber is best for a front door?
Accoya for a painted door — it is modified softwood that barely moves and carries long guarantees on the finish. European oak for a natural door, accepting it will silver unless it is maintained. Both far outlast standard softwood.
How secure is a bespoke timber door?
As secure as you specify. A multipoint lock into a reinforced frame, hinge bolts, and a three-star cylinder gives you a door that meets the standards insurers ask about. The frame fixing matters as much as the lock.
Do you charge for the survey and drawings?
The measured survey and the quotation are free. If you want fully detailed manufacturing drawings or a 3D visual before committing, that is chargeable and the fee comes off the job if you proceed.
