Security and Ironmongery across Dorset
Getting Security and Ironmongery right in Dorset depends on detail that a price list cannot capture. Most of what we survey locally is Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages, which is not built to any modern module. The other factor is exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, which is why rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock is the most common reason people call us. The detail we will not compromise on is locking specified to the actual risk rather than the cheapest option.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
Something particular to this area: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Dorset?
Yes. We cover the whole of Dorset including Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Dorchester and the surrounding villages. Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade. Because exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
