Timber stable doors.
A stable door lets the upper and lower sections open independently. We make each door and frame around the property, with the joints, seals and hardware planned as a complete external doorset.
A closer look at the meeting rail.
A stable door has two separate leaves. This drawing detail shows how the upper and lower parts meet when closed.
Two leaves, one door
The meeting profile is considered alongside the way each half opens and how the leaves connect.
Opening direction matters
This is an opening-out detail. The correct arrangement depends on the door, opening and specification.
Agreed before making
We discuss the design, hardware and weathering details with you before the door goes into manufacture.
