FAQ About Pre-Finished Doors

What does pre-finished mean on an external door?

Pre-finished external doors are door leaves that reach you already sealed with a factory-applied varnish, paint, or oil. Because the protective coat is on before delivery, you can fit the door as soon as it arrives, without treating it first.

Do pre-finished doors come with a frame?

No. These are door leaves only, supplied to hang in your existing or separately bought frame. If you want a matched door and frame supplied together, see our pre-finished external door sets collection.

Do they come with handles, hinges and locks?

No. As with most doors, the hardware is bought separately, though the door is pre-drilled and prepared so fitting your chosen handles, hinges and locks is straightforward.

Which factory finishes can I choose from?

Depending on the door, the factory coat may be a varnish, a painted colour, a natural oil or a wax. Each product page lists the exact finish and the shades available, so you can match the door to your home.

Can I fit a pre-finished door into my existing frame?

Yes, as long as the size is right. Many doors can be trimmed slightly for a precise fit, so measure your existing door leaf carefully and compare it to the product size before ordering.

Is a pre-finished or unfinished door right for me?

Choose pre-finished to save time and get an even, factory-quality finish. Choose unfinished if you want to apply a very specific colour yourself, but remember an unfinished door must be sealed properly before it is exposed to the weather.

How do I look after a pre-finished external door?

Clean it gently and keep an eye on the finish, recoating with a quality exterior product when it starts to wear, usually every few years, to keep the timber protected.

Do you make pre-finished doors to measure?

Yes. If you need a non-standard size, we offer custom-made external doors finished to your specification. See our custom external doors collection or contact our team.
