Hardware

We also offer our own superb ironmongery sets, made in hand forged steel and available in either an antiqued beeswax or a pewter finish.

Each kit contains 2 x 18" (450mm) strap hinges, specially designed with strengthened hinge assemblies to take the weight of solid oak doors without sagging. The kit also contains a substantial thumblatch complete with locking pin. Finally a set of matching screws is also supplied.

Another alternative to the thumblatch set is to use our unique Cottage Latch. This latch is a more substantial option than the thumblatch and uses a plate screwed to the door with ring handles. Bracing Pack

Selecting a bracing pack adds the diagonal braces to your door. In the past these were necessary to stop the door from sagging over time, but with modern manufacturing techniques this is no longer the case. Braces are now purely an aesthetic choice.

Braces are available as either a loose bracing pack for you to fit yourself, or we can install them for you. If you elect for us to install them you can let us know which orientation you would like them fitted in, left side or right side to the top.*

Glass Opening

We can also manufacture your door with a glazing opening. Selecting this option will mean we let in an opening to the door, and supply the door with oak glazing bead. We can supply the door either unglazed or with 4mm toughened glass.

If you would like a particular size glass opening then please let us know, otherwise we will make the opening to the full width of the inner boards

* We'll default to fit the braces right side to the top unless you tell us otherwise
