  • The Door


The Solid Oak Ledge Doors produce a very attractive look. Hand crafted with a wide range of designs and sizes, they are made form European oak, which is kiln dried to 10% moisture content. This actively stabilisers the door to minimise any deforming after it has been hung. All railway sleeper doors are 42 mm thick to complement the size of 20mm vertically and 22mm ledges.These doors can be cut down to smaller sizes. The vertical 20mm boards have a micro bevel on the corner that creates a V-Groove look. The Framed door range was built to a 40 mm frame, with a 20mm vertical board, in accordance with traditional jointing methods. 



  • The Floor
The European Oak Flooring adds a touch of classic style and elegance to any decor. Made from home grown oak trees, this extra thick traditional oak flooring is identical to French oak in terms of colour, density and wear resistance. It is kiln dried to approximately 8%-12% moisture content and is machined to 20mm for compactness and heat retention.
