Traditional Framed Ledged & Braced Construction
The FL&B design is one of the most recognised styles of traditional timber door construction. Vertical boards are strengthened with horizontal ledges and diagonal braces, helping to maintain structural stability and prevent twisting over time.

The natural grain and knots within the timber give each door a unique rustic character while also making it ideal for painting, staining or treatment finishes to suit your exterior décor.
