Doors

At any one time, we hold a stock of at least 1000 doors, ranging from elegant front doors to the simple cottage door. The periods and styles can vary considerably so we have compiled a list of the most common types we have in stock.

Standard 4 panel Victorian/Edwardian doors
This style of door is the most common as it was popular from the end of the last Georgian era to the end of the Edwardian era and it is still being used today. The detail varies, as the mouldings on the panels can be different. Also some doors have the mouldings on both sides, some on one side and some with no mouldings at all.

The sizes can vary, so we have listed the most common ones below:

Sizes
27" x 76"
28" x 76"
30" x 78"
32" x 80"
34" x 82"
36" x 84"

Any sizes over 36" x 84" are uncommon but are available. It is probably a good idea at this point to advise that although we have a large stock of original doors, there are some sizes and styles that are just not possible to get any longer. So we are able to offer a made to measure service where we can make or copy a size or style of door and the frame if needed. All you need to do is send us details and we can get a quote to you within 10 days.

Six panel Georgian doors are the hardest doors to get in good condition and tend to be wide and short. We are limited in our stock of originals, but again can make the doors to order.

Room Dividers
We have a good stock of original pine room dividers, mainly as pairs, which range in size and style. Sets of 3 and 4 doors are rare, so we normally make them to order.

1920s / 30s doors
Normally made out of British Colombian Pine, these doors come in a 4 or 6-panel style. The typical size of this door is 30" x 78".

Front Doors
Of all the door styles, the front doors are the most varied. We have classic style Victorian, Edwardian and 1920's/30's doors. Most of these doors are ready to take glass panels, but we do also have a good range of solid front doors (i.e. no glass).

All the information given above is only really a rough outline of the actual stock we carry and we do strongly advise you to pay us a visit if that is at all possible, if not then please e-mail, fax or telephone us and we will be glad to help as much as we can.

When measuring for your door it is worth keeping in mind that all of the sizes given above are quoted as the size of the door when made. It is common to find that doors have been trimmed in the past either to accommodate a slightly smaller frame or the length trimmed for carpets. This can then makes the doors undersize by 0.25" to 0.75
