Sunshine in Stretford
Our ‘Sunshine’ Yellow finds its second front door so far in Liz’s Grand Victorian.
Yellow – Some consider it, some have said they would love it but…
You have to be bold to go for a bright colour in the first place. Liz, a bubbly personality, chose our Sunshine Yellow a few weeks ago and here it is. The polished brass door furniture is set off brilliantly by the yellow and the etched double glazing with numbered fanlight – it’s Victorian styling with a contemporary twist.
It all started with a phone call. Graphic Designer Liz knew what she wanted from the offset. All there was to finalise when I visited to measure up was the furniture.
What happens between ordering and gorgeousness?
When all the details are sorted out and we know what we want we’ll will bring the door to be fitted into the frame (unless we’re am replacing the frame as well of course).
Brass furniture on a yellow front door
The simplicity of the mushroom and plain Victorian letter plate allows the Doctor’s knocker to stand proud without looking too busy.
After the new front door is sized up to fit your door frame, we will refit your old door and take the new one away to have the furniture fitted, paint it and fit glass. We’ll fit the door furniture and glass before we return with the finished door.
A day fitting the new door, sill, draft strip and fanlight and we’re finished.
Fitting Liz’s Victorian front door
The contemporary Etched glazing gives the whole thing an up-to-date feel and the Amelia font number 10 in the fanlight really ties that all together.
After 4-5 weeks (for the engineered door fitted into the existed Victorian frame) we have our gorgeous ‘Sunshine’ Yellow Grand Victorian Etched with polished brass furniture and a truely happy customer (see below).
