A Door Is the First Thing Anyone Touches

Hollow doors announce themselves the moment somebody pushes one. Ours are solid hardwood, hung in timber frames we make to match, with the carving cut into the panel rather than pressed onto it.

We make the door, the frame, the architrave and the transom as one set, which is why they fit first time on site.

Questions

Frequently Asked

Solid hardwood. This is the main difference between our doors and most of what is sold ready-made in Dar es Salaam, and it is why ours feel and sound different.

Yes. We make the frame and architrave to match each door and can supply and fit handles, hinges and locks, or fit ironmongery you supply.

In most cases yes. Send a photograph and we will tell you whether it can be cut in the timber you want and what it would cost.

A typical house set takes a few weeks depending on quantity, carving detail and finish. We confirm a date with the quote.
