osmononame Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hi all, So having ordered the windows and sliding doors for my new build I procrastinated on the entrance doors. In hindsight I should have just ordered with the windows but that ship has sailed. I now need a set of doors for 4 weeks time - does anyone know any suppliers / manufacturers that may be able to fabricate in that time? Worst case I have seen a few off the shelf solutions that can be here in 3 days which will have to do and although it will be smaller than our opening we can probably do something to make it work. I am on a very tight timescale hence no waiting about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_r_sole Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 be worth a chat with your window supplier to see if they can add a door into your order and shorten the lead time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Good luck. We've been browsing kitchens, windows, doors etc . All seem to have 8 week + lead in times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its Rationel and when I asked to add to the order I was told a firm 'It doesn't work like that'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 What exactly do you need - type of product, size of opening, where in the country, e.t.c ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmononame Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Our structural opening is 2505 wide by 2270 high although can bring that in a bit if required. Looking for a single door with 2 fixed lights either side. Either aluminium or composite in the style attached. A door along the style of the one attached would do. I'm in Glasgow.

Nick Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Sorry, you're a bit far outside the area I work in so can't really recommend local suppliers, but generally I would say that even in non post-lockdown madness times it would be a struggle getting an aluminium panel door in 4 weeks - they are literally made to measure. Composite door should be do-able if you call around suppliers as they make them from standard-sized slabs and just rip them down to suit before edging & finishing. Can still get them in 2 weeks down in the South-East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperJohnG Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 You could check Russell timber frame who are in Glasgow. They do similar doors to Rational etc. Don't know if its just aluclab timber they do only though. Worth a check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
