Timber doors in Chelmsford
People come to us about Timber Front Doors in Chelmsford once the cheap option has already failed. Around here it is estuary bungalows, 1930s ribbon development and timber-framed village stock, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. Locally you are contending with the driest climate in the UK with sharp summer heat, so shrinkage cracking and glazing bead failure from repeated drying cycles is the fault we are called out to. The part that matters is sets where the door and frame are made together so they stay aligned.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
A detail specific to this area: low rainfall shifts the risk from rot toward movement and seal failure.

Verified client, Essex“They specified lighter ironmongery than we asked for and explained exactly why.”

Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
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.
Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
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 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.
