Oak. The very word brings up images of reliability, Englishness, solidity and strength. Probably our most well known tree and now, as always, a symbol of endurance with hundreds of uses throughout history. Oak has been used for building for at least 3,500 years and a Bronze Age boat was dicovered in Dover which has been dated to about 1550 BC. Such is the history of this building material and now most timber merchants and DIY Sheds bring you exterior doors which also symbolise the reliability and solidness of the Oak.
External doors obviously need to be solid and durable but they also need to be attractive and Companies now have combined the practical aspects of the timber with its natural beauty to produce some stunning doors.
