Bespoke Hardwood External Doors in Nottingham

A bespoke hardwood external door offers security, durability and a level of customisation mass-produced doors can't match. We design, craft and install hardwood doors to your exact specification -- from classic panelled designs to modern, sleek styles -- in our own workshop, using traditional joinery techniques alongside modern tools.

Hardwood Options

  • Oak: Strength, timeless beauty and weather resistance, with good natural insulating properties
  • Walnut: A rich, dark hue and luxurious grain for a more contemporary or high-end feel
  • Mahogany: A deep reddish-brown tone with a fine grain and polished finish
  • Iroko: Highly durable and moisture-resistant, well suited to exposed locations

Our Process

  • 1. Consultation and design: We discuss your style, security and insulation needs, and create a detailed design using CAD software
  • 2. Material selection: Choose your hardwood species, plus hardware -- handles, hinges and locks
  • 3. Crafting: Your door is built in our workshop, typically taking 2-4 weeks
  • 4. Installation: Usually completed within a day, with the door checked, aligned and sealed against drafts

Security & Glazing Options

All our bespoke hardwood doors can be fitted with multi-point locking systems, high-security deadbolts and cylinder locks, reinforced frames, and anti-drill/anti-pick features. If you'd like glazing, we offer clear, frosted or decorative glass (including stained or etched designs), and double glazing for improved energy efficiency.
