Project scope
Supply & installation of new timber doors.
Project consist of:
Situated between Wandsworth Common and Clapham Common on a quiet residential street, this charming Clapham property benefits from peaceful, park-side surroundings. The client approached us to replace their existing French door, which had been causing troublesome drafts and heat loss. We supplied and installed a bespoke timber French door, carefully designed to enhance both the home’s character and everyday functionality while resolving the insulation issues.
We provided detailed drawings for client approval to ensure the glazing bar design matched their vision – a 34mm reversed Ovolo with Ovolo profile externally and chamfer internally. The result: a beautifully balanced finish that complements the property while delivering improved security, thermal efficiency, and long-lasting durability. The client was delighted to have the draft issue completely resolved, bringing year-round comfort to their home.
Key specifications
- Timber: Knot-free engineered Redwood paired with a hardwood Sapele cill for superior weather resistance and long-lasting performance.
- Design: The door features 34mm Ovolo applied glazing bars with infill, replicating the look of traditional construction bars. The reversed Ovolo profile – with Ovolo moulding on the exterior and chamfer on the interior – was crafted to match the previous door and complement the surrounding buildings.
- Glazing: 24mm double-glazed, Argon-filled Low-E safety glass units deliver superior thermal efficiency and year-round comfort while maximizing natural light.
- Paint: Finished in a durable three-coat system, painted to RAL 9016, ensuring long-term protection and visual consistency.
- Ironmongery: Nico 3D adjustable hinges and Mila door handle in Polished Brass finish, combining elegance with reliable security.
