External hardwood Wordsworth Door showing aperture cut to take letter plate; this
procedure is best done in the workshop where the correct machinery is available. Some
of the openings we have seen which were cut onsite look like they were done with a
knife and fork! This door was painted in our workshop in gloss blue Farrow and Ball
paint [excellent quality]. Judging by the work we are doing it seems paint is making
a comeback at the expense of staining. |

This 4 panel Colonial Door with bolection moulds exactly matches the original which has been replaced after being in
service for 100 years. The accessories fitted to the munting are a Kirkpatrick
letter plate and postal knocker [number 976], fitted to the middle rail a centre
knob with rose [number 3064] and fitted over the deadlock key hole an escutcheon
with cover [number 1190]. The door and ironmongery keeps the front elevation of
this cottage in character with others in the row. Pictures courtesy of Miss Vesty. |

| This is a solid oak Welland Door and Frame which has been coated in our workshop
with Sadolin Classic Light Oak finish. The glass pack is traditionally leaded [number WD57].
Also fitted are Kirkpatrick letter plate, lever lock handles and escutcheon. Footnote: Traditional leading is where coloured glass is secured in a framework made
from lead strips which are not to be confused with modern ‘leaded glass’ where lead strips and a coloured film are applied to the surface of the glass. |
