I am the only person on my road to have an oak entrance door, and I really do love the way I now stand out form the crowd. Of course, I didn’t just pick this door because of its style advantages; I also picked it because the weight of oak is immense! I wanted a door that felt secure and sturdy but traditional too, as I live in an old town house. The door has been finished in oil so that it’s weather resistant, but it’s very chunky in size and it’s a really nice weight to open. Oak is probably my favourite building materials, and the new door matches my new flooring and kitchen units, so I’ve created a bit of a theme here. I recommend you consider heavy-duty oak doors for the front of your home because they’re strong, unique and extremely stylish.
