Open your living room to the outdoors. Timber French Doors for sale.
In the spare hours of this week I decided to make a set of French Doors for someone to buy and install in their home.
Moving from the norm of a single pane of glass I put a raised panel in the lower section of the doors. Made from solid Western Red Cedar these doors will stand out if you decide to oil them. Currently rebated for single glazing I can rebate them for double glazing for a small extra cost. For the lock, I can rebate out for a mortise lock for a few dollars also.
The second picture is not these doors but what Cedar looks like when oiled with a small amount of pigment to protect them.
I have not done the above so you can have options available along with painting if you need to.
Doors are 1805mm by 2040mm.
Frame is 1880mm by 2150mm (approx)
Doors are Western Red Cedar
Frame is H3.1 fingerjointed pine.
Professionally made these doors are very well priced at $1450 a lot less than from a retail outlet. I am able to make more if the size is not what you want.
My next project is going to be a radical new design. Keep your eyes out!
I also do bi-fold doors and windows, sash windows, bespoke windows, custom joinery, lattice work or anything using timber.

Labour Party Hypocrisy
Well, here we go again. More Labour Party hypocrisy.
Just as Labour MP Rachel Boyack has cried crocodile tears over National not building the promised new Nelson hospital when Labour had promised (showing both how little a Labour promise is worth and the hypocrisy of their tears) to get the hospital started before their term ended we now have Deputy Prime Minister Seymour calling for the Air New Zealand shares owned by the government to be sold.
Now that is to be expected given Seymour’s party policies but what is astounding is Labour’s finance spokesperson Barbara Edmonds comments in response.
She tells us Air New Zealand is critical national infrastructure and the Government should not be selling its shares.
Very good, but wait. Labour has clearly (and conveniently) ‘forgotten’ which party privatised Air New Zealand.
In 1989, the Labour Government sold Air New Zealand into private ownership. The sale transferred the airline from being a fully state owned national carrier to a privately owned company. The sale was part of a broader wave of Labour privatisations, also including:
• Telecom (1990)
• New Zealand Steel (1987)
• PostBank (1988)
Labour may well have built state houses for working people (not just beneficiaries like Ardern’s government) in the 1930’s but what have they done since? Very, very little other than to ride on that one good thing ever since and, as we are seeing again and again approaching this election, spent most of their time practicing their hypocrisy. Remember the Kiwibuild promise?
If you want truth in politics beware Labour.
