Timber
We use primarily solid timber for our doors, machined and detailed in our own workshop. Idigbo is very often used as our standard timber. It has excellent durability and lifespan and takes either a clear or painted finish extremely well. A frequent alternative is Prime European Oak, chosen for its superior durability over the cheaper American White Oak. We have also manufactured doors in American Black Walnut – a stunning timber. Many other species are also available. We have a Chain of Custody (CoC) Licence and can prove the source and therefore the sustainability of FSC timber used in manufacture.
Ironmongery
Handles are selected by the customer. There’s a vast range of styles and finishes available. We can also source ironmongery to match existing handles / styles within a property. We can fit traditional sash or dead locks and night latches or alternatively we incorporate more modern systems such as multi-point espagnolette locks.
Timber Finish
We offer a range of finishes to suit the location, timber and your preferences. When a painted finish is required, we use three coats of micro-porous paint – any colour, to your taste. Paint finishes are spray applied in the factory. We use top quality coatings from Teknos which allow us to offer up to a 10 year guarantee on the life of the finish. We also offer a range of oils and varnishes to protect and enhance. We can prepare samples for you whenever needed.
Glass Options and Specifications
A range of double glazed units can be accommodated. We always use softcoat low e glass units filled with argon gas for improved thermal efficiency and we fit various other options to improve “u” values or to ensure greater security, laminated glass for example. We can also incorporate engineered insulated timber panels if required. Etched or patterned glass can also be incorporated, and we don’t forget your pets – we even make special openings for cat flaps.
Quality Craftsmanship
Your doors are machined, joined, finished and glazed in our workshop by our own highly skilled and qualified craftsmen. Traditionally jointed using wedged mortice and tenon joints, the whole process is under our control and the end product leaves our workshop fully factory finished, wrapped and ready for installation.
Fully Customisable
At Clifton Joinery we believe in fully customisable products. We can alter stile or rail widths to your own design or to maximise glass area, finish and glass specifications to suit you and ironmongery options from a vast range of suppliers. Our experience and expertise delivers the quality of product for which Clifton Joinery is reknowned whilst still giving you complete control and the ability to fully personalise your joinery.
