Timber doors in North Shields
Ask three firms about Door Frames and Linings in North Shields and you will get three different answers. With Tyneside flats, Georgian Grainger Town frontages and coastal terraces making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. The other factor is cold North Sea exposure with high sustained wind, which is why wind-driven rain penetration and rapid coating loss on seaward elevations is the most common reason people call us. 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. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
One thing that catches people out here: Tyneside flat stock has a distinctive paired-door detail worth replicating exactly.

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.
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.
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 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.
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.
