Bespoke Hardwood Outbuilding Doors in Glentworth, Gainsborough
We manufactured and installed a bespoke pair of hardwood outbuilding doors for a property in Glentworth near Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. This type of work forms part of our bespoke timber doors in Lincoln and our wider bespoke joinery services in Lincoln. We regularly build custom external doors for houses, outbuildings and period properties across Lincolnshire.
The original doors had deteriorated over time and no longer provided good weather protection or security. The client asked us to design a new pair of timber doors that would improve performance while still matching the character of the brick outbuilding.
Custom Made Hardwood Doors
We manufactured a pair of 2XGG hardwood doors with a matching frame. The overall size is 1345mm by 2255mm. Each door includes two glazed upper panels and two solid lower panels. This layout allows natural light into the building while keeping strength and privacy.
Projects like this often sit alongside our heritage and period joinery in Lincoln, where doors must be made to suit the building instead of using standard sizes.
Double Glazing for Better Performance
To improve insulation, we installed Pilkington K Clear toughened double glazed units with a 4/12/4 build-up. The units are argon filled and use warm edge spacer bars with a traditional lead pattern.
This specification gives better thermal performance while keeping a traditional appearance. Using modern glazing in timber joinery allows older buildings to perform better without changing their character.
Traditional Ironmongery and Secure Locking
We fitted black pewter ironmongery to match the style of the outbuilding. A five lever mortice lock provides reliable security while keeping the correct traditional look.
Choosing the right hardware is important on external joinery because it affects both durability and appearance.
Osmo UV Protection Oil Finish
We finished the doors with two coats of Osmo UV protection oil. This finish highlights the natural grain of the hardwood and protects the timber from weathering.
Oil finishes work well on bespoke hardwood doors because they provide strong protection and remain easy to maintain.
