Choosing the right timber for your exterior door is important.
Your door needs to look good, but it also needs to cope with the British weather.
Rain, wind, sunlight and changes in temperature can all affect a timber door over time.
European Oak
European oak is a popular choice for exterior doors.
It has a beautiful natural grain, and every door has its own unique character.
Oak can be finished in different colours, from a natural look to darker stains.
When properly made, finished and maintained, an oak door can last for many years.
Accoya
Accoya is another excellent choice for an exterior door.
It is specially treated to make it more stable and durable outdoors.
It can also be painted in almost any colour, making it ideal if you want a painted door rather than a natural timber finish.
Why Choose a Bespoke Door?
A bespoke door is made specifically for your property.
You can choose:
– The type of timber
– The size and design
– The glazing
– The colour and finish
– The door furniture
The door and frame can also be made to work together, giving you a better fit and a more finished appearance.
Don’t Forget About Maintenance
All exterior timber doors need some maintenance.
Keeping the finish in good condition helps protect the timber from the weather.
Regular maintenance is much easier than waiting until the finish has started to deteriorate.
If you’re not sure which timber or finish is right for your home, we can help.
