From the panelled and ornate interior doors of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods to the bland installations of the seventies and eighties, timber doors have seen trends come and go. However, with bespoke joinery and modern manufacturing methods readily available, you can now have any design you like in any size, timber, and colour.
Our joinery manufacturers at Skipton Joinery will design and create a range of internal and external timber doors to suit your Harrogate property. We work closely with domestic and commercial clients and produce complementary timber windows and wooden staircases, images of which are on our website gallery.
Please don’t rush into any decisions regarding your interior woodwork. Doors, skirting boards, architraves, and decorative features are expensive to replace, so don’t treat them like ornaments. Instead, see them as a long-term investment that will add style and value to any Harrogate home or commercial premises.
We look at the most popular designs below:
For our North Yorkshire clients who favour a more rustic interior design style, cottage doors are usually produced by our bespoke joinery manufacturers in oak. They comprise several vertical planks joined together, either with or without a frame. Skipton Joinery’s team can also create timber windows and wooden staircases that blend perfectly with these doors for a truly retro theme.
Although they are the most basic style of interior doors, they are created to give the impression of solid timber doors. Depending on the core material – such as particle board or foam – they can provide adequate soundproofing, durability and insulation. Hollow flush doors are lighter and not as sturdy. They’re a more cost-effective solution for property owners on a tight budget.
These are additional styles of cottage doors with supporting planks attached to one side of the timbers. Ledged doors will have at least two horizontal beams evenly across the vertical planks. Ledge and brace doors, on the other hand, will also have diagonal support between the ledges. This extra timber results in a more farmhouse-style door and is highly popular with our clients.
For modern properties in Harrogate, panelled doors offer a sleek and more contemporary appearance. Whether you favour a two-panelled door, four-panelled, or a unique design, our bespoke joinery manufacturers will produce exactly what you’re looking for in the timber and colour you choose. We can also install glass panels which will enhance natural light.
Sharing over 45 years of experience between us, the team at Skipton Joinery are more than happy to work closely with you to bring your designs and ideas to life. From timber doors and fitted wardrobes to wooden staircases and timber windows, we’re the joinery of choice in North Yorkshire.
