Timber Doors
Naturally durable, modern engineered timber which is fabricated from multiple layers of hardwood for added stability can be treated, varnished and painted for longevity. However, as with all timber doors regular maintenance is required to preserve their appearance.
Without a doubt timber doors are a very elegant solution for any building. A popular choice as a renewable material, timber offers superb performance and comfort combined with traditional craftsmanship.
At Q4UK our timber doors are made from the highest quality wood specifically selected from a sustainable and responsibly managed source.
Handcrafted to order, our timber doors are manufactured in our specialist facilities using top quality engineered timber selected for its strength, durability and stunning style.

Ethically Sourced Timber
At Q4UK, we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of manufacturing timber products which is why our timber is ethically sourced from sustainably managed forests, under EU Timber Regulations. The EU introduced measures in 2013, to protect its woodland and forest and these days more trees are planted than felled. We are actually committed to planting one tree for every order placed with us!
Using advanced manufacturing techniques our timber windows and doors are crafted with precision-machined engineered timber. This process reduces the amount of wasted timber, 25% less than making traditional timber frames.
We ensure our timber complies with FSC industry standards for verifying wood sources and we are proud to display the FSC logo.
