Description

The Heritage range of timber doors is designed specifically for architects and specifiers working on listed building projects. These doors embrace the essence of traditional fenestration products while offering energy efficiency and comprehensive guarantees.


Timber Heritage Single, Stable, and French Doors


The Gowercroft Churchill range of single, stable, and French doors seamlessly blends highly traditional features with modern design and materials. These doors come with a comprehensive ten year guarantee on all elements and deliver energy efficiency ratings equivalent to modern double-glazed products.


Crafted from Accoya®, renowned for its longevity and energy efficiency, these doors ensure long-lasting quality. The vacuum cavity glazing, with a thickness of only 8.3 mm, achieves U-values comparable to modern double glazing while eliminating double reflection, making it particularly suitable for conservation areas. The LandVac glazing is also toughened, providing enhanced safety and security.


  • The reduced visibility gaskets integrated into the frame maintain a seamless and authentic appearance. All panels are constructed using insulated sandwich boards, significantly improving energy efficiency without compromising aesthetics.
  • The Heritage range offers a variety of traditional shapes and sizes, including entrance doors, single doors, French doors, and stable doors, ensuring suitability for diverse architectural requirements.
  • Equipped with a full multi-point locking system, these doors provide excellent security and help prevent bowing or twisting in the door leaf. High-quality ball-bearing butt hinges ensure a long lifespan and exceptional functionality. Shims are included behind the hinges for convenient adjustment during installation or acclimatisation.
  • Ironmongery is included, featuring a range of finishes to complement the heritage aesthetics. French door sets come with cabin hooks as standard, enhancing their functionality.
  • For fixed side screens, dummy top and bottom rails are provided as standard, ensuring a cohesive and complete look.


Features and benefits:

  • Accoya® timber.
  • Toughened vacuum glazing.

  • Enhanced security.
  • Part L compliant.
