About this piece
An exceptional set of four Arts and Crafts exterior doors. Selling as two individual pairs, with further interior doors available separately.
A superior architectural design in the Glasgow style, with stylized rose and floral stained glass panels to the upper sections. The first pair in the images have stylized decorative cast iron hinges. This pair would work well in many instances, such as for a summer house, workshop, or garage. They are made from pitch pine and are something to behold when viewed in person. The stained glass panels were probably made by McCullock & Co., of Glasgow.
The quality of these doors is exceptional. They are a little thicker than usual doors and could also be used as secondary exterior security doors.
The other pair both have large cast iron wheels at the top. This pair requires a simple long steel channel that would need to be made to accept the upper wheels, and would be best fabricated on-site. That channel, once made, would then fix to the wall above the door openings, and the iron wheels would slot into the iron channel. The doors actually hang from the channel, allowing them to slide smoothly apart to open or close.
This pair was originally removed from an Arts and Crafts garage.
As well as these two pairs of workshop/garage doors, there are 17 standard-size internal and external doors. These 17 do not have stained glass panels, but many have a single upper central glass pane, as shown in the last image. They could have stained glass made to match.
Four doors are painted white, and one is a staircase cupboard door with a triangular cut to the top (not shown). You could build a house around these doors. The remaining 17 interior doors are available separately at GBP 850 each.
