The Prestige Joinery Process
Our process of creating custom solid wood doors begins with a thorough consultation between the homeowner and the craftsman or designer. This initial step establishes the vision for the project, design preferences, functional requirements, and any architectural considerations unique to the home. For exterior doors, factors such as climate, exposure to sunlight, and security needs are critical in determining the appropriate wood species and construction methods.
Once the design concept is agreed upon, precise measurements and templates are created to ensure an exact fit within the door frame. For interior doors, considerations such as room layout, traffic flow, and aesthetic continuity with existing decor influence design choices. Custom door frames are crafted to complement the door design seamlessly, providing structural support and enhancing the overall appearance of the entryway or interior space.
Our craftsmen employ traditional techniques alongside modern tools and technologies to bring the design to life. This blend of old-world craftsmanship and contemporary methods ensures that each custom door and frame meets high standards of quality and functionality.
The choice of finish—whether a natural oil to enhance the wood’s grain, a clear satin waterborne finish or a custom paint colour to complement the home’s interior or exterior palette—is carefully considered to achieve the desired aesthetic and protective properties.
