We can offer a complete turnkey service, from initial survey on your existing doors and openings, to arranging and installing replacement doorsets that are Q-Mark certified for both manufacture and installation.”
Our Secured By Design/PAS 24 doorsets are supplied as a complete pre-hung doorset available with all associated ironmongery factory fitted, on a supply only or supply and fit basis. All doorsets are bespoke manufactured and include a number of facing and finish options including primed, natural timber veneers and high-pressure laminates as well as options for a wide selection of ironmongery to suit budget and aesthetic requirements.
