Oak Veneered Door Matched to Existing Doors in Troon
A single oak veneered door hung in a home in Troon, South Ayrshire — matched to the doors already in the house so it does not stand out, with chrome ironmongery to suit the existing handles.
Internal door fitting — Troon, South Ayrshire
Matching what is already there
Replacing one door in a house full of doors is a different problem from replacing them all. The new one has to match on style, on grain and tone, and on ironmongery — because a single door that is slightly out is more noticeable than a whole set that is different. Getting the match right is most of the job and it happens before anything is ordered.
Hanging a single door
Into an existing frame that has been in place for years, so the door is worked to the opening as it is now rather than as it was built. Hinge positions reused where they suit, gaps kept even, and the handle set at the same height as every other door in the house — a detail nobody notices until it is wrong.

Common questions
Can you match a new door to my existing ones?
Usually yes. Most common door styles are still available, and where an exact match is not, something close in style and tone can be found. It is worth sending a photo before anything is ordered.
Is it worth replacing just one door?
Often, yes — a damaged or badly hung door in an otherwise tidy house is worth sorting on its own. It is a short job and there is no need to replace the rest to make it look right, provided the match is thought about.
Do you supply doors or can I buy my own?
Either. Doors and ironmongery can be included in the quote, or you can supply them — we will just check they suit the opening and the existing doors first.
