Hardwood Doors

Entrance and internal doors in solid hardwood, hung in matching frames.

A hardwood door is a permanent part of the building, so it is worth setting out properly. We take the survey, agree the drawings, machine the parts in the workshop and fit in your home in one visit wherever the programme allows.

How we build it

Timber is chosen for the room it is going into. Painted work is built in tulipwood and moisture-resistant MDF because they hold a crisp arris and take a sprayed finish without grain rise. Where the grain is meant to be seen we use European oak, walnut or ash, with veneers laid so the figure runs continuously across a set of doors.

Finish and materials

You can have it primed for your own decorator, sprayed in any RAL or heritage colour, or left in oiled timber. Oiled finishes can be refreshed at home; sprayed finishes are harder wearing and are what we recommend for kitchens and anything at knee height.

Typical guide pricefrom £2,100 per linear metre, fitted

Guide prices are indicative. Real cost depends on the run length, ceiling height, finish and what goes inside. The indicative price tool gives you a range in about a minute, and a free survey turns it into a fixed written quote.

Straight answers

Hardwood Doors — common questions

Solid or engineered core?

Engineered core with hardwood faces for most doors, because a solid slab of hardwood in a heated house will move and eventually bind or twist. Solid is right for smaller doors and where the spec demands it.

Which hardwood for an external door?

Accoya or iroko facing weather, oak where the building calls for it. South and west elevations take the most punishment and justify the more stable option.

Do you supply the frame too?

Yes, and we would rather. A good door hung in a twisted frame will never close properly, and door and frame made together means the rebate and the weatherseal actually line up.

Can you match existing doors in a house?

Yes. We take the panel layout, the moulding profile and the stile widths off an original so a replacement reads as part of the set rather than a substitution.

What about security?

Multipoint locking, laminated glazing where there is glass, and hinge bolts. Part Q applies to new dwellings and sets a tested standard for the doorset as a whole, not just the lock.

Are hardwood doors fire rated?

FD30 and FD60 doorsets are available but must be built as a certified assembly — door, frame, intumescent and ironmongery tested together. A hardwood door with a strip added afterwards is not rated.

How much do they move seasonally?

An engineered core moves very little. We still set clearances for a wet winter rather than a dry summer, because a door that fits perfectly in August and jams in January was set up in the wrong season.

Can you make a curved or arched door?

Yes, with a laminated head to match the opening. See our hardwood arches for how the curve is formed.
