Tyne and Wear is a county of tyneside flats, Victorian terraces and extensive post-war estate housing. That is exactly the kind of building stock a set of internal doors 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 bespoke internal doors in Tyne and Wear 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
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
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.

Straight answers
Bespoke Internal Doors in Tyne and Wear — common questions
How much bigger than the opening should the door be?
The door is made to the frame, not the opening. We survey the frame, check it for square and wind, and make the door to suit with a 3mm gap on the sides and top and a floor gap to match your finished flooring.
Why not just buy a standard door?
If your opening matches a stock size, do. Period houses rarely do — original openings are frequently 30 to 80mm off any standard, and cutting a stock door down that far removes the stile and weakens it.
Do bespoke doors have to be solid timber?
No, and often they should not be. An engineered core with a solid hardwood lipping and a veneered or paint-grade face is far more stable across a heated house than solid timber, and it will not twist.
Can a door be glazed?
Yes. Obscure or clear glazing into a moulded frame. Any glass in a door below 1,500mm from floor level must be safety glass to Part N — we specify it as standard.
Do I need to empty the room before you fit?
Clear the working wall and anything fragile. We bring dust sheets and a vacuum-extracted saw, but fitting makes dust and we would rather your furniture was out of the way. For kitchens we will agree a sequence with you so you keep a sink and a kettle for as long as possible.
