Door dipping Belfast

Does anyone know of any companies who dip internal doors in the Belfast area? Preferably ones who collect and bring back the doors after they've been dipped :)

Thanks,

D xx

    there used to be a place called bare wood near castlecourt but don't know if they collect and deliver or if they are even still there. a friend bought several pre dipped doors and was very pleased with them but it was a vew years ago now.

    They are still there.
  • They are. I had some done a year ago. The Process does have some drawbacks though in that the doors swell and can distort a bit when drying out again as they are literally soaked in the chemical overnight. Also if you have any stained glass in the door it'll wreck the leading. I didn't mind as our house is quite old so a few "wonky" doors were not out of character.

    Just wanted to come back and update - we used Bare Wood Ltd and I'm really pleased with how well the doors have come up :beer: They also sell original doors that have been stripped so we were able to buy one to match the others for our bathroom as this door had been replaced with a more modern (but very ugly!) one.

    They do collect but seeing as we live in Belfast it would have been quite expensive - my DH was able to fit them in the back of our car with the seats down so that saved a few quid!

    Many thanks :)

    Yes, still exists but don't know how cost effective or practical it would be to do kitchen cabinet doors !!
