Timber doors in Derby
The Timber Front Doors we make for Derby is set out from a survey, not a size chart. The housing here is largely Peak District gritstone cottages, mill housing and Georgian spa stock, and that shapes what will actually fit. Locally you are contending with upland cold with heavy snow loading and hard frost, so frost heave damage and swelling on unbalanced-finish joinery is the fault we are called out to. What we concentrate on is sets where the door and frame are made together so they stay aligned.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
Worth knowing locally: Peak Park properties face some of the tightest external alteration controls in England.

What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
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.
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.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
