About this lot

Surplus to a luxury extension. Slim sightlines, thermally broken. Sealed and stored in workshop. Located in Bristol — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Bristol Reclaim Co., a demolition operating out of Bristol; live for 5 days.

This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. It is sold as reclaimed: character included, surprises excluded — read the defect notes below before bidding your time.

Condition report & known defects

7/10
  • Layers of historic paint on some units; assume pre-1970s paint may contain lead and strip accordingly.

Carbon & sustainability notes

Choosing this lot over new product avoids an estimated 40 kg CO₂e — benchmarked against manufacturing equivalent new joinery (a new timber door ~35 kg CO₂e; a uPVC window ~60 kg CO₂e).

For scale: roughly 236 km in a typical petrol car, or a year's absorption for 2 established trees.

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £90–£145 per pallet, 2–4 working days.

Questions about this lot

Are the stated sizes the door leaf or the frame?+

Leaf sizes unless the listing says 'with frame'. Always measure your structural opening and allow for packers and tolerance before buying.

Can old doors be trimmed to fit?+

Solid timber doors trim comfortably by up to 10mm per edge. Engineered and fire doors have strict trim limits — check the certification label first.

Is the glazing safety glass?+

Modern units from Bristol Reclaim Co. are toughened where regulations require. Original period glass is not safety glass — re-glaze below 800mm or in door zones.
