Timber · Kensington (W8, SW7)

Timber doors in Kensington

Astragal timber doors are specified as part of the wider envelope, balancing joinery detail, ironmongery, weathering and security.

On Kensington projects, timber doors are usually specified around the existing aperture, the surrounding materials and how the room will be used. Kensington's stucco terraces and mansion blocks need carefully proportioned sash windows, slim glazing bars and entrance doors that match the rhythm of the surrounding street. Astragal Doors and Windows surveys each opening before quoting so the system, sightlines and finish are right for the property — not a default from a catalogue.

Kensington's conservation areas and listed buildings drive a timber-first approach, with slimline double glazing where performance upgrades are needed.
