New House Custom Timber Door Installation – Review
Building our new home gave us the opportunity to make thoughtful design choices from the start, and choosing a custom-made timber door was one of the best decisions we made.
Design & Customization
We wanted a statement entrance that blended warmth, durability, and timeless appeal. Working with a local craftsman, we designed a solid timber single-leaf door with vertical panels, a rich walnut stain, and a modern matte finish. The customization process allowed us to choose everything—from the grain and color to the handle style and lock system—making the door uniquely ours.
Installation Process
The installation was smooth and professionally done. The fit was precise, and all sealing and finishing touches were handled with great care. Despite being a heavy, solid wood door, the hinges and frame were perfectly aligned, allowing for a quiet and smooth operation.
First Impressions Matter
This door instantly adds character and presence to the house. It’s the first thing people notice, and we’ve received countless compliments on the design and finish. The natural timber texture pairs beautifully with the modern architecture of our home, creating a warm, welcoming focal point.
Final Thoughts
A custom timber door isn’t just an entrance—it’s a statement piece. The quality, craftsmanship, and uniqueness of a custom installation truly elevate the home’s exterior. We couldn’t be happier with how it turned out and highly recommend investing in a custom timber door if you’re building or upgrading your home.
