Attention to detail is at the heart of every Longden project.

Longden's experts work closely with all those involved in the specification of custom doors and doorsets to establish the best approach to each project whether it be restoration, conservation, adaptation of historic and commercial buildings or a new-build.

All Longden custom timber door sets are manufactured individually to order, giving total design freedom and the capability to match existing door sets perfectly or to give complete individuality to a new project.

Years of investment in people, including the provision of apprenticeships and a comprehensive training programme, has resulted in exceptionally high rates of staff retention and a workforce whose positive, customer-focused attitudes and pride in their work have helped to further enhance Longden's reputation for expertise and traditional craftsmanship.

A truly bespoke joinery specialist, Longden is supported by the resources and modern techniques of Leaderflush Shapland, the UK’s leading manufacturer of performance doorsets.

Capability
With the capacity to deliver, whatever the requirement or size of project, Longden is a major player in the solid timber custom door sets market. This is underlined by the extensive product portfolio which includes panelled doors, both raised and fielded and flat panel, as well as horizontal or vertical boarded doors and screens.

Support
Technical expertise is available at all stages of the specification and procurement process. At Longden, we also recognise the skills needed to install custom door sets correctly and, as such, can offer assistance on the latest techniques to help installers.

Sustainability
Longden shares its customers' concern for sustaining the earth's resources. We have developed an Environmental Management System in accordance with BS EN ISO 14001:2004, based on a policy of sustainability and reduction of carbon emissions. Custom doors and door sets from Longden can be specified using solid timber and timber-based raw materials approved by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and exclusively from well-managed and sustainable sources.

Certification
All our doors and doorsets are fully certified to recognised performance standards. The company is accredited to BS EN ISO 9001: 2008. All fire resisting products are manufactured under the intensive CERTIFIRE Independent Product Conformity Scheme. Every fire door or doorset carries a tamper evident and fully traceable label with clear, essential information.

Health and Safety
Longden operates a strict Health and Safety policy and has achieved BS OHSAS 18001:2007 standard.

Innovation
Continuing product development and an exhaustive performance testing programme enable us to offer a wide scope of certified custom door sets. In addition to regular performance testing by UKAS accredited independent bodies, our in-house test facility allows continuous product development and quality assurance checks. Our test facilities include a furnace for full size doorsets and cyclic testing rigs, as well as equipment for assessing mechanical properties and security performance. But this innovative approach is also applied to customer service and procurement initiatives to meet the challenges of today's construction industry.
