Doors That Suit Period Properties
A bright white plastic door can look out of place on a Victorian bay-fronted terrace. That is why so many Swinley customers choose composite doors in heritage colours and traditional panel designs, often with decorative glass that echoes the original. You keep the character of the house and gain a door that locks, seals and insulates like a modern one should.
For rear extensions and garden rooms, French doors remain the favourite around Swinley, letting light flood in without fighting the style of the property.
The Full Range, One Local Fitter
Every door is made to measure and fitted by us, not subcontracted out.

Old Frames Out, Everything Made Good
Period homes in Swinley often hide surprises behind the architrave: rotten sub-frames, crumbling mortar, openings that are anything but square. With 25+ years of fitting behind us, none of that fazes us. We allow for proper preparation in the quote, make good the reveal, and finish the job neatly inside and out.
There is no deposit to pay, the work carries a 10-year guarantee, and our 750+ 5-star reviews are largely from homes just like these.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you fit doors in Swinley?
Yes, regularly. Swinley is a few minutes from Wigan town centre and well within our daily working area. We are based in Atherton and cover the whole borough.
Which doors look right on a Victorian terrace?
Composite doors in traditional four-panel or two-panel-with-glass designs are the most popular choice for Swinley's period homes. Deep colours like racing green, oxford blue and classic black, paired with chrome or gold hardware, sit very naturally on an older frontage.
Can you fit decorative or obscure glass in a new door?
Yes. There is a wide catalogue of glass designs, from plain obscure patterns for privacy to decorative leaded and coloured styles that suit period properties. We will show you the options at the quote stage.
My door opening is not square. Is that a problem?
Not for us. Older Swinley houses have often settled over a century or more, so out-of-square openings are normal. We measure carefully, order the door to suit and pack and level the frame during fitting so the door closes perfectly.
How much is a composite front door in Swinley?
Composite doors vary with size, colour, glass and hardware, so we quote each one individually. You get a free written price after we measure, there is no deposit, and the quoted price is what you pay.
Do new doors in older houses cause damp problems?
No, quite the opposite when fitted properly. We seal the new frame correctly to the masonry, which usually improves matters compared with a draughty old timber frame. Ventilation in the home is unaffected by a well-fitted door.
How secure are your doors?
Every door we fit locks at multiple points along the frame with a multi-point locking system, and composite slabs are dense and extremely tough. It is a major upgrade over a Victorian timber door with a single mortice lock.
How long does fitting take in a terraced house?
About half a day for a standard front door. Terraced access in Swinley is rarely an issue for us; we plan the work so your home is never left open and unattended.
Is there a guarantee on the door and the fitting?
Yes, both are covered by our 10-year guarantee. If a hinge, lock or seal needs adjusting years down the line, one call brings us back.
Do you take payment before the work starts?
Never. We do not take deposits from anyone. You pay when your new door is fitted, tested and you are happy with the finish.
Can you do the back door at the same time as the front?
Yes, and it is usually cheaper overall to have both fitted in one visit. Plenty of Swinley customers pair a composite front door with a uPVC back door to balance looks and budget.
