How great to find a company who are driven by quality and customer satisfaction. From start to finish, their service has been exceptional, whether it be communication, product quality or installation, they cannot be faulted. Not the cheapest and they advise getting other quotes, but you get what you pay for with this company. (Reviewed September 2023)
Delighted with new front door - Gez spent a lot of time with us discussing style of door & process (process was exactly as described - including timelines). The whole team is easy to work with & most importantly professional & skilled. Would definitely recommend this company. (Reviewed July 2023)
We had our 1930s / tudor style door completed last week by Gez and Fraser, it was a beautifully made hand made door completed with multi-point lock and made with Accoya timber. The design process was great, as we were looking for a replica door of the existing, Gez managed to replicate the door with some modern features and hardware. There was a lot of customisations and was guided appropriately. Gez kept me informed througout the process and when there was a minor issue on site, Gez was very accommodative. The installation went smoothly. I would highly recommend the Handmade Door Company if you are looking for a bespoke door. (Reviewed June 2023)
If you would like a new wooden/timber door, this is the company to use. The quality and finish of the door is outstanding. You talk directly to the person who makes the door (Gez) so you get exactly what you want. And Gez helps you through the process of choosing what you want (which we found to be overwhelming with other suppliers). Gez and his team are brilliant to work with and take real pride in their work. We love our new front door. (Reviewed May 2023)
Professional service from this skilled tradesman. Would strongly recommend for all your door needs. (Reviewed December 2022)
We are delighted with our new front door, which is a perfect fit for our Victorian home and also cuts down noise from our busy road. Gez paid great attention to this project, advising us and keeping us informed of progress throughout. He is an excellent craftsman, liaising with others over the stained glass work. The result is a high quality bespoke door which enhances the look of our home enormously, and will last for many years. (Reviewed December 2022)
We had to replace 3 external doors on our Grade II listed house in Sussex. These needed to be bespoke, high quality doors - with the complication of two electronic locks for an intercom system. Gez at the Handmade Door Company guided us through the process from start to finish. From providing clear, helpful and genuine advice with regards to the design and construction process (as well as the time it would take), to the successful installation ahead of schedule, we could not be happier. He was a pleasure to work with. The quality of the doors is sublime - Gez clearly takes immense pride in his work. The installation by Fraser was also fantastic - solving a number of issues which had been caused by the previous door installers. All the electronics worked perfectly. Highly recommended!

Ges made a beautiful set of timber French doors that perfectly match the rest of the house. Fraser took his time and fitted them so they are millimetre perfect - not bad for our wonky house! The result is a top quality addition to our home that transforms the kitchen. Can't recommend more highly - these guys are the best. (Reviewed October 2022)
This company provided an outstanding level of service.
Gez listened very carefully to our requirements, made helpful suggestions, and designed and created the most beautiful door. He kept us informed during different stages of the process and, had we wanted to, we were welcome to visit the workshop too, Gez is an amazing craftsman, who is passionate about his work and can be trusted implicitly to do a fantastic job. The door was installed on time by a member of the team, Fraser, and all the mess was cleared away. What a polite, talented and efficient company this is. I cannot praise them enough - a delight to have found them! (Reviewed September 2022)
Great craftsmanship in the finished product, and really took the time to understand what we were after at the initial consultation. We relied a lot on the experience the company had to help us decide on what would work. A great end result. (Reviewed September 2022)
We contacted Gez to replace our front door, which was warped & drafty, for our early 1900's cottage. Gez was incredibly thorough, talking us through options of styles, fittings, mouldings etc. Being newbies to owning a period property his knowledge & care was invaluable. We were fully prepared to accept the increase in cost for a door versus a bigger provider to help ensure we got a door that had modern benefits with locking & draft proofing but still looked appropriate & made in wood & not a composite. The Team Gez employed for installing were tidy, considerate & thorough & myself & my wife are delighted with the finished door. These guys take real care with their work & would recommend to anyone who wants a similar service. (Reviewed August 2022)
Amazing team. Great communication. Excellently finished product - beautifully made of solid materials. Already had many compliments on our front door. Gez and the team were so accommodating - we needed the door at one stage and it painting later after building works. thank you! (Reviewed July 2022)
This was the fist time I have worked with Hand Made Door Co and I would not hesitate in recommending them. The attention to detail in the manufacture by Gez and the craftsmanship and quality of the finished door is exceptional. Installation by Fraser and painting by Kevin just reinforced the level of professionalism and standards that this company operate to. Communication excellent throughout - everyone we dealt with displayed real passion for what they do and committed to customer service and best possible outcome.

We used Gez and the Handmade Door Company after a recommendation and were not disappointed. Great communication, totally understood what we were after and made good suggestions. The door is made beautifully and fitted expertly. A very busy company and you may have to wait your turn, but well worth it for the quality and care put in to it. Excellent from beginning to end, we couldn't be happier and highly recommend them. (Reviewed May 2022)
We were recommended The Handmade Door Company by a friend, and were not disappointed by what Gez and his team created for us. Gez was incredible, from start to finish, a great communicator, with such an eye for attention to detail, offering his advice and expertise, but at the same time, letting you guide the finished outcome of your door. The finished masterpiece was exceptional, and truly completed our home. Our 1930s full renovation has been a 12-18month project, with numerous trades involved, but Gez was by far the most professional, and most importantly, reliable, out of the lot. (Reviewed May 2022)
The Hand Made Door team provided a really professional service, always kept us informed of progress and were friendly at all times. We were keen to have the original door replicated as close as possible along with the original stained glass and this they achieved.
Really great service all round. (Reviewed April 2022)
Gez is clearly very passionate about his work. His craftmanship is of the highest quality. I am delighted with the front door he has designed and made for me. The contractor who fitted the door, Fraser, was also very professional and the standard of his work is similarly high. I highly recommend this company. (Reviewed March 2022)
We received excellent service, from regular updates (including photos), to offering to meet up and show us the process and similar doors. The door is made to a very high quality and is completely draft and noise proof. The installation was swift and tidy. The team were very competent and enthusiastic about what they were doing.
We were so happy that we actually recommended them to my parents who have subsequently had a new front door from them too.
(Reviewed February 2022)
Very good service from the initial discussions on what we would like to the installation. Gez always kept us fully informed and gave good advice at all stages. The finished door looks amazing and works really well. (Reviewed February 2022)
Fantastic service and very good quality finish. (Reviewed February 2022)
Two bespoke handmade back doors and one bespoke handmade front door were installed on my house. The back doors were installed in December 2020 and the front door March 2021. I am absolutely delighted with my doors. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are first class and many people have commented on how lovely my front door looks. The communication, timekeeping and honesty of the company are outstanding. I had initially chosen more expensive back doors but Gez explained that whilst he would be happy to make any doors of my choice, he felt that very expensive back doors would not be seen by many people and would not add value to my property. This level of honesty is rarely seen nowadays. (Reviewed February 2022)
Excellent bespoke tailored service with incredible intention to detail. (Reviewed February 2022)
