Hi I am trying to get a original 1930's front door from a house on Westwood Park, anyone have suggestions as to where I may be able to get a match...I assume locally is the best bet? |

I'm glad you are putting originality back in, as so many people seem to be taking it out and hence devaluing their properties ( and my morale!) Can only suggest Lassco in Bermondsey for reclaimed goods- alternately you could have one made to a design,- Art with Glass in West Norwood can make the stained glass. |

The previous occupants have replaced the original door with a full length flemish glassed 1970's horror door, so we really want to try and get a sympathetic match....thanks for the advice! |

I had the stained glass in my front door re-furbed by Art With Glass - the results were excellent, and more secure. Les. |

Try the Old Bath House another salvage place, 65 Bell Green Rd close to SavaCentre (tel 8778 6909) they also have doors and other things you didn't know you needed....... |

Cheers for the info all...I am off to the Old Bath House to have a look. Les, further you your posting - as an estimate, what would you expect to pay to get a stained glass re-done? |
