Traditional Craftsmanship in Leicester

Leicester's finest period streets — Stoneygate's grand Victorian and Edwardian avenues, Clarendon Park's coherent Victorian terraces, the Georgian elegance of New Walk — represent some of the richest residential architecture in the East Midlands. Old English Doors designs and builds bespoke timber doors, windows, stained glass, gates, and porches for these properties, made in our Nottingham workshop and installed across the city.

Crafted for Period Properties

Elegant and Functional Designs

Our Bespoke Services in Leicester

Leicester's housing stock carries genuine architectural range, from the Georgian townhouses of New Walk through Stoneygate and Clarendon Park's Victorian and Edwardian streets to the interwar character of Oadby. Each period demands its own approach to proportion, glazing, and detail — we design every project from the property's actual architectural period, not a generic approximation of "period style."

Wooden Doors in Leicester

Stoneygate's substantial Victorian and Edwardian villas and Clarendon Park's coherent terraced streets were built with front doors designed as genuine architectural statements. We make Victorian doors, Edwardian doors, Georgian doors, 1930s doors, and Arts and Crafts doors matched to each property's specific era — correct panel proportions, period mouldings, and glazing arrangements drawn from the property's actual construction date.

Heritage Doors in Leicester

New Walk's Georgian conservation area, parts of Stoneygate, and Leicester's many listed buildings demand heritage joinery built from genuine documented evidence. Our heritage doors are designed to satisfy conservation officer requirements and listed building consent applications, not simply to look broadly period-appropriate.

Wooden Windows in Leicester

The sash windows of Leicester's Georgian and Victorian streets, and the casement windows of its Edwardian suburbs, are central to how these properties read from the street. We build bespoke timber windows to the exact period proportions and glazing patterns these properties were designed with. Our heritage windows serve Leicester's listed and conservation area properties where statutory accuracy is required.

Stained Glass in Leicester

Leicester's Victorian and Edwardian housing — particularly in Stoneygate and Clarendon Park — carries some of the East Midlands' finest surviving original leaded glass. We hand-craft stained glass doors and stained glass windows using traditional techniques, reproducing lost originals or creating new designs rooted in genuine period precedent.

Steel & Glass Internal Doors

Steel & Glass Internal Doors in Leicester

Old English Doors now supplies and installs bespoke steel and glass internal doors across Leicester through our partnership with MetaliX — a European manufacturer producing precision-engineered steel door systems.

Leicester's Stoneygate and Clarendon Park properties — some of the East Midlands' finest Victorian and Edwardian period homes — are increasingly seeing steel and glass internal doors specified for ground-floor open-plan conversions. The visual contrast between a contemporary slender black steel frame and original period joinery, cornicing, and brickwork is part of the design intent: a deliberate material dialogue between old and new that enhances rather than conflicts with the period character of the property.

Particularly well suited to ground-floor open-plan conversions in Stoneygate's grand Victorian villas and Clarendon Park's Edwardian terraced streets, and to the Georgian properties of New Walk where interior remodelling is permitted within the listed building framework.

Wooden Gates in Leicester

The boundary treatment of a Leicester period property is part of its overall composition. We build garden gates and driveway gates in solid hardwood, designed to the specific scale and character of the property, rather than a generic standard pattern.

Wooden Porches in Leicester

Many of Leicester's Victorian and Edwardian properties, particularly in Stoneygate and Clarendon Park, carry or once carried genuine architectural porches. We design and build Victorian porches, Georgian porches, heritage porches, and traditional porches that restore this feature where it has been lost, or add one appropriate to the property's period where none previously existed.
