Contemporary Door With Frame Glazed Sidelight

In a picturesque setting, the entrance door to this property had suffered the ravages of time. The rotten front door not only compromised the security of the home but also marred its visual appeal. The team at Richard James was entrusted with the task of replacing a deteriorating front door with an elegant Accoya® timber door.

The challenge was to restore the functionality and aesthetic grandeur of the property’s entrance while ensuring that the new door aligned with the charm of the stone-built house. The door was designed with a contemporary aesthetic, incorporating clean lines and a minimalist approach that balanced modernity with the property’s character.To maximise natural light in the entryway and create a welcoming atmosphere, a glazed sidelight was added, offering a glimpse of the interior and enhancing the door’s visual appeal.

What Our Customers Say

Quality and service are very important to us, but don’t just take our word for it. See what our customers say about the service, quality and value of our work.

Over the past 18 months I have had a French door and bay window manufactured in Accoya by Richard James. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality of workmanship in the manufacture and installation of the doors and windows and would unreservedly recommend this company.

We needed to replace a metal up and over garage door and our front door. We wanted to go back to traditional wooden doors that would be in keeping with our traditional semi-detached home. From the moment we contacted the team for design and concept ideas right through to project completion we have been impressed and extremely satisfied with their professional, quality of work and communication throughout.

It was evident after the initial consultation the team are committed to offering the highest quality of product and design, delivered with the very best levels of customer service. We cannot recommend this company highly enough.

An excellent service from start to finish on a stunning stable door for my seventeenth-century cottage. I really appreciated their knowledge of the products which they craft from scratch, and the detailed information which they were more than happy to send me on the specifics of the door and locks etc. in the early stage of design. It was the best customer service experience of my life.

The door is really special, installed with a great deal of care. It was well worth the investment. I whole-heartedly recommend this company for anyone who wants to improve the character of their home, but especially people with historic houses.

From start to finish, Richard James Joinery were exceptional!Through advice and guidance the team helped us to perfect our stunning, bespoke front door, which has transformed our home both externally and internally. The quality of their workmanship, and the personable service we received is second to none. They are an absolute pleasure to work with. We were always welcomed into their workshop, and we were taken by their passion and attention to detail. The communication throughout the design, the installation, and the overall finish surpassed our expectations. We highly recommend Richard James Joinery and would like to extend our thanks to Jimmy and the fantastic team. It has been a pleasure to work with them, and we look forward to working with them again in the very near future.

We chose Richard James Joinery to make us a brand new front door from scratch. We had a specific design in mind and decided to visit their workshop after viewing projects on their website they had recently undertaken. We received a very warm welcome by a friendly team and we were able to witness first-hand the outstanding level of carpentry and workmanship. The team guided us through the whole process. The experience is so intimate; you even get to watch them build your pride and joy during follow up visits, which they actively encourage. We now have a beautiful handmade front door exactly the way we envisaged and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this excellent company. Outstanding!
