Frequently Asked Questions About Bespoke Windows & Doors
What types of bespoke windows and doors do you create?
We handcraft a wide range of windows including traditional sash windows, casement windows, bay and bow windows, and specialty shapes for unique openings. For doors, we create internal doors (panel, glazed, sliding, pocket doors), external doors (front doors, back doors, French doors, stable doors), and entrance features. Each piece is made to your exact specifications, architectural style, and performance requirements.
Can you match existing windows and doors in period properties?
Absolutely. We specialize in replicating period features and have extensive experience with Victorian, Edwardian, Georgian, and other historical styles. We can match existing glazing bar patterns, molding profiles, hardware styles, and construction methods to ensure new windows and doors blend seamlessly with original features. This is particularly important for listed buildings and conservation areas.
What wood species do you use for windows and doors?
We select wood species based on the application, budget, and style requirements. For external windows and doors, we often use hardwoods like oak, mahogany, or accoya (modified softwood) for their durability and weather resistance. For internal doors, options include oak, pine, maple, or other species depending on your style preferences. We can also work with reclaimed or specially sourced timber for unique projects.
How do your handmade windows and doors compare to mass-produced ones?
Our bespoke windows and doors offer superior quality through individual craftsmanship, precise fit to your exact openings, choice of premium materials and hardware, traditional joinery methods that create stronger, longer-lasting construction, and the ability to match any architectural style exactly. While mass-produced units may be cheaper initially, our handmade pieces offer better performance, durability, and character that adds significant value to your property.
What glazing options are available?
We offer various glazing options including single glazing for period authenticity, double glazing for improved thermal performance, triple glazing for maximum efficiency, and specialty glass such as obscured, leaded, or stained glass. For period properties, we can install slim-profile double glazing that maintains the authentic appearance while improving performance. We’ll recommend the best glazing solution based on your priorities for energy efficiency, authenticity, and budget.
How long does it take to create and install bespoke windows and doors?
The timeline varies based on complexity and quantity. Simple internal doors might take 3-4 weeks from order to installation, while complex sash windows or elaborate external doors could take 8-12 weeks. Multiple windows for a whole house renovation might take 10-16 weeks. This includes design time, manufacturing, finishing, and installation. We provide realistic timelines during quotation and keep you informed of progress throughout the process.
