Oxshott, Surrey

Single door with access panel & two double hinged door sets.

The client for our Oxshott project contacted us after an unsatisfactory experience elsewhere, looking for three internal doors to transform her downstairs hallway. Following a detailed consultation at our showroom, she was confident we could bring her vision to life and decided to move forward with a bespoke solution.

From the outset, the client was seeking a design that would balance timeless elegance with a modern edge. We presented two design options, and she ultimately selected the version with three horizontal bars—an understated and versatile style that echoed the tones of the wider renovation. To elevate the look, all doors were finished in RAL 9005 (Jet Black), coordinating beautifully with the home’s banister spindles and front door, while standing in bold contrast to the lighter interior palette.

Each door was finished with our Trim handle, offering a clean and minimalist finish that was perfectly suited to the modern-classic blend the client envisioned. The access panel on the kitchen door was configured without a handle, giving it the appearance of a fixed screen when not in use, though it remains fully functional. It also featured top and bottom shoot bolts, allowing the full width of the aperture to be opened for larger gatherings or furniture access.

For the office door, the client opted for reeded glass, combining texture, privacy, and sophistication. This thoughtful choice allowed light to filter through while keeping the space discreet—ideal for a workspace. Every detail, from the frame proportions to the handle placement, was carefully considered to ensure the doors felt like a natural extension of the home.

This project is a great example of how considered design can completely transform a home’s entrance and flow. The result is a beautifully balanced installation that feels tailored, timeless, and completely in sync with the property’s refined aesthetic.

“3 superb sets of French doors.”

“The team at Joshua James have been an absolute pleasure to deal with. My recommendation was via word of mouth having been conned into investing in steel doors from a sub-par company which ultimately became insolvent. Having had a bad experience the first time, I was determined to find quality and value for money. I’d sought multiple quotes from companies providing aluminium doors, premium wooden doors made to look like metal ones and other companies providing steel doors. Joshua James had an exceptionally thorough and easy to use website with every case study available to review. I liked their story and how the company had progressed. Their long standing experience was clear. They have a showroom so you can see the product and take samples away, but best of all, they will happily and knowledgeably answer any questions and talk you through the whole process from design, reviews and recommendations to final installation. Upon my request, they gave me two beautiful options both of which would have looked gorgeous, but I ultimately went for traditional crittal style French doors with one set reeded. I am truly delighted with the product and the overall finish. They have transformed our hallway and elevate each room perfectly. These doors have decent sound proofing, are high quality and timeless. A perfect addition to any home or office. I absolutely assure any prospective customer that you will not be disappointed with Joshua James. They are a delight to work with.”
