Wavertree Road, London SW2

Overview

Wandsworth Sash Windows recently undertook a bespoke project to manufacture and install a new Doc L French door for a residential client in London, SW2. Created to  improve the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the client’s home, the doors combined modern energy efficiency with timeless style. The project required high-quality materials, resulting in beautifully crafted French doors that met and exceeded the client’s expectations.

 

Project Description

The project involved supplying and installing French doors from our Standard Open Out Doors Range, crafted in solid Utile hardwood. This choice of material provides a timeless aesthetic and ensures durability and longevity. Below are the key specifications and features that made this project stand out:

• Glazing: Double glazing was used for energy efficiency and safety, with stained glass accommodated by omitting fanlight glazing.
• Panels: Internal doors had flat panels with slim bolection moulding, while external doors featured Ovolo moulding.
• Paint and Finish: Doors were finished with Teknos Spray Finish in White Satin for a polished appearance.
• Ironmongery: Polished chrome multipoint locks with durable black Anvil forged hardware and a Burley door lever handle.
• Custom Features: Added elements like an external sheet, Ogee architrave, and quadrant bead enhanced aesthetics.

 

Results

The completed French doors transformed the property’s aesthetic, enhancing interior and exterior appeal. The choice of Utile hardwood provided a timeless yet durable finish. At the same time, the attention to detail in moulding, glazing, and hardware elevated the overall design, inspiring the potential of our products.

The energy-efficient glazing significantly improved thermal performance, helping the client maintain a comfortable indoor environment. The multipoint locking system also offers peace of mind with its robust security features, ensuring the safety of the client’s home. The flexibility provided by the option for stained-glass inserts allowed the client to add a truly unique touch to their new doors, aligning perfectly with their home’s character.

 

Conclusion

The successful installation of the bespoke French doors left the client delighted with the results. They praised the craftsmanship, professionalism, and ability to tailor the project to their requirements.
