Welcome to part two of our Heritage Door Restoration .
These 100 + year old doors have taken a considerable amount of wear and tear , not withstanding the harsh outdoor elements but when you stop and think of all the times they have been opened and closed each day - the mind boggles …
We took a mulitpronged approach to the repair of these doors - being mindful that they are indeed heritage and to keep their beautfiful authenticity and integrity was paramount to us.
Reglueing was a vital component of our process - regaining stability and structure hence safety was our prority.
In addition repairing missing broken beading, cracks and other signs of age brought us to the polishing stage.
For this stage we applied several/many ( a lot) of resin coats, after each application each door was sanded to remove any unevenness and promote a wonderful flat surface….
The end result is nothing short of fabulousness, these beautiful silky oak doors will now happily be ready for the next century .
