Handcrafted Bespoke Hardwood Doors
With over 44 years’ experience hand‑crafting made‑to‑measure timber and wooden doors in Bristol, our local team combines traditional mortise‑and‑tenon joinery with modern precision.

As a truly local carpenter and joinery service, we’re just a phone call away for on‑site consultations, quick adjustments, and after‑sales support.

Project Overview & Installation Process
We began with a detailed site visit in Clifton, Bristol, taking precise dimensions and photographing the existing doorway to ensure our made‑to‑measure oak door would align perfectly. Our design team then crafted CAD drawings for the client’s approval, selecting premium oak and specifying a microporous paint finish that complements the townhouse’s heritage façade.
In our workshop, master joiners cut, assembled, and sanded the door using traditional mortise‑and‑tenon techniques before treating it to weather‑resistant oil. We returned for installation, carefully removing the old frame, installing reinforced jambs, and hanging the new door so it operates smoothly. Final adjustments and a clean‑up left the client delighted with a secure, stylish entrance that feels truly bespoke.
