Lanlivery: Heritage Doors for Granite Cottages

By Cornwall Composite Doors · 9 July 1969 · 4 min read

Lanlivery's granite cottages near Helman Tor deserve a heritage composite door — cottage panels, coloured skins and considered hardware.

A small village with a strong granite character

Lanlivery, near Helman Tor and the Crowns Inn, is a small village built almost entirely in local granite, giving it a consistent, settled character that a poorly matched door disrupts quickly. Most of the properties here are period cottages rather than later infill, which keeps the specification conversation fairly consistent from house to house.

Cottage panels and appropriate colours

Cottage-style composite doors with proper panel mouldings are what we fit almost exclusively in Lanlivery, in heritage colours like Chartwell Green, Duck Egg Blue and Cream that work with the cool grey tones of the local granite rather than against them.

Hardware that respects the setting

Pewter or antique black hardware generally suits Lanlivery's granite cottages better than bright chrome, which can look too contemporary against this kind of stone. It's a small detail, but one that makes a real difference to how settled the finished door looks.
