Timber doors in Bishop's Stortford
Security and Ironmongery around Bishop's Stortford is a different job from one street to the next. The building stock is garden city stock, Georgian market town frontages and commuter-belt detached housing, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. The exposure here is moderate rainfall with cold inland frosts, which is exactly the condition that causes frost damage to end grain and swelling on unbalanced-finished units. The detail we will not compromise on is locking specified to the actual risk rather than the cheapest option.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
One local point to factor in: garden city areas carry design codes that restrict window style changes.

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 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.
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.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
