Timber Front Door, Headingley, Leeds

Hannah had just bought her first property in the heart of Leeds, in the vibrant Headingley area, known for its mix of students, professionals, and characterful homes. While the house had plenty of charm, it needed some love and attention to make it truly feel like home — and replacing the front door was high on her list.

The existing door was a standard uPVC model, and Hannah hated it with a passion. She dreamed of a solid timber door that would bring both character and quality back to the entrance of her home — and that’s when she found us.

We met at her property, took measurements, and talked through various options. After some back and forth exploring different styles, Hannah chose a classic Victorian four-panel design with elegant bolection mouldings. The door was spray-finished in a soft off-white colour and paired with timeless black ironmongery — a perfect match for the property’s character.

The transformation was instant and Hannah was absolutely thrilled with the result. Not only did the new door completely refresh the look of her home, but it also gave her peace of mind. The door is fitted with a modern multipoint locking mechanism, and that reassuring solid clunk when it closes is the sound of quality and security.

In her own words, Hannah joked that she could be a “difficult client,” but she was incredibly grateful for our patience and support throughout the process.

Thank you, Hannah, for trusting us with such an important part of your home — it was a pleasure to work with you!

“The new front door is exactly what I’d had in mind, classic timber but with modern security and heat-retention. The Woodcraft team were really helpful and patient with me and I’m so happy I chose them for the job.”
