Your front door is more than just a gateway into your home, it’s the first thing visitors see, it creates character and individuality. We see your timber front door as an expression of your home’s personality, while also providing durability, insulation and security.
Ochiltree have been manufacturing and fitting bespoke timber front doors since 2013, sourcing the highest quality timbers and delivering something truly custom to enhance your home.
What exactly is a bespoke timber front door?
A bespoke front door is exactly what it says on the tin, a one-of-a-kind door. Any size, any design, with a choice of timbers, hardware, colour, finish, glass and ironmongery, we can create something unique that stands the test of time.
Bespoke timber front doors come in all shapes and sizes. Compared to standard “off the shelf” products, we manufacture our doors for any size doorway, perfect for historic buildings or for bringing character to modern homes.
Bespoke doors are built with a high level of craftsmanship, providing excellent longevity and durability, with solid hardwoods lasting up to 60 years.
What are the benefits of a bespoke timber front door?
Many homeowners are discovering the benefits of a bespoke timber front door and the natural qualities timber has to offer.
Unique design, made to measure
Whether you have a Victorian, Georgian, Edwardian or modern home, we’ll create something that enhances your building. Made to measure, our doors fit perfectly into your space and can be finished in a wide range of colours and hardware to match your aesthetic.

Increase property value
A high-quality, handcrafted front door improves the look and feel of your home, boosts kerb appeal and makes your home more desirable to potential buyers. Timber doors provide a premium feel while demonstrating care and attention to your property.
Security you can rely on
A bespoke door isn’t just about looks. Every door we build can be specified with multi-point locking systems, reinforced frames and security-rated glazing, giving you the same design freedom without compromising on peace of mind.
Sustainability and repairability
Responsibly sourced timber is one of the most sustainable building materials available. All of our timber is FSC certified, providing a renewable source while we take care of your home and the planet.
Timber is also one of the most durable materials available, our solid hardwood doors last up to 60 years. And should a door ever get damaged, timber is far easier to repair than alternative materials, which will often need to be replaced entirely at a higher cost.
Energy efficient
Timber is a natural insulator that also helps reduce noise, making it a great energy-efficient material for all seasons. Because our timber doors are built to measure, we guarantee a secure, tight fit that provides a sturdy, draught-free solution for your home.
Superior build quality
Every timber door we produce is created by a team of skilled joiners at our manufacturing facility in Northumberland. We take pride in every door we produce and care about every detail, built to last, it’s a genuine fit-and-forget product for your home.
Who is a bespoke timber front door best for?
One of the biggest benefits of a bespoke timber door is the flexibility in design. We create doors that suit period buildings, commercial storefronts, churches and ultra-modern homes alike.
We’re not restricted to a handful of standard designs, we’ll create a door that complements your building’s architecture and suits your taste. Some of the most popular building types we work with include Victorian, Georgian, Edwardian and contemporary homes.
How much does a bespoke timber front door cost?
Because every door we make is bespoke, pricing depends on a few key factors: the size and design of the door, the timber species you choose, glazing, ironmongery and your security specification. This flexibility means we can work within a range of budgets while still delivering a door built to last.
Superior craftsmanship and improved energy efficiency take a bespoke timber front door far beyond appearance alone. As every door is built specifically for each home, the best way to get an accurate price is to get in touch with a member of our team.
