Timber doors in Barnard Castle
Nothing about Door Frames and Linings in Barnard Castle is settled until someone has been on site. With colliery terraces, Georgian Durham city stock and Pennine stone housing making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Because of cold upland winters with heavy rainfall, we see frost and saturation damage on unmaintained painted softwood more often here than in most of the country. The part that matters is frames made to the structural opening rather than a nominal size.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
A detail specific to this area: Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny.

What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
