  • Any recommendations for a company to supply and fit a custom made wooden front door? (SW London).

    Just had London Door Company round setting what is hopefully the upper bound. (£6k including the 20% summer sale discount.)

    Needs to be hardwood not composite (house is Edwardian). This is a communal front door for two separate flats. Also want ERA locks (pair of keyed alike yale/latch and deadbolt with thumbscrew for night-time) - Banham just too spendy. New frame/sill and all the fitting that goes with that.

  • Didnt @stevo_com post about a front door some time ago ?

  • I used London Door Co for ours, must be well over 10 years ago now and it was over £7k for the door inc frame and glazed unit above the door. So £6k now sounds relatively ok.

    At the time I think cheaper options were still around £5k so I just went with LDC.

  • Ebay and a carpenter?

    There are a load of really nice wooden front doors on Ebay.

    If you can find someone who would quote for the job they might be able to let you know if a door you find is suitable and how much work might be needed.

  • Used these guys http://www.sashwindowsanddoors.co.uk/ and are very pleased, maybe slightly too far east for you. 4k for Front + back doors inc frame etc

  • ERA locks (pair of keyed alike yale/latch and deadbolt with thumbscrew for night-time)

    I've got an era dead bolt and latch set matched alike, I've got a weird front door and when I had a new one fitted I had to buy a narrow one after already buying the standard size. Satin nickel.

    I think they're 160 from sds, I'll do it for half.
