How We Deliver Your Bespoke Steel and Glass Doors
Every project begins with a design consultation to understand your space, interior palette, and functional requirements. We then prepare detailed drawings and finish samples to ensure alignment before fabrication begins. Our doors are manufactured in-house using precision-engineered steel profiles and toughened glass, with electroplated finishes applied under controlled conditions to achieve consistent quality. Once complete, we arrange delivery and can coordinate with your contractor or installer to ensure a smooth handover. We work with architects, interior designers, and property developers across the UK, and have completed installations for clients including Harrods, Tiffany & Co, and Rolls-Royce.

The Only UK Supplier Offering Electroplated Steel Internal Doors
We are the only company in the UK manufacturing steel and glass internal doors with genuine electroplated finishes in antique brass, copper, bronze, and gunmetal brushed. Since 1995, we have specialised in architectural metalwork for luxury interiors, building long-standing relationships with blue-chip brands and high-end residential clients. Our focus is narrow and deliberate: we produce internal doors and screens to the highest standard, rather than offering generic metalwork. This specialisation allows us to refine every detail, from profile engineering to surface treatment, ensuring a product that meets the expectations of the most demanding projects.
Why Choose Electroplated Steel Over Standard Alternatives
Most suppliers offer powder-coated black steel or aluminium doors designed to mimic metal. We manufacture genuine steel internal doors with electroplated finishes that deliver depth, warmth, and character unavailable from coating processes. Electroplating creates rich, layered tones that shift with light and viewing angle, adding sophistication to luxury interiors. Our finishes include antique brass, antique copper, antique bronze, gunmetal brushed, gold plating, and chrome plating. This breadth of choice, combined with furniture-grade engineering and made-to-order flexibility, positions our doors as the premium option for architects, designers, and property developers working on high-end residential and boutique commercial projects across the UK.
Investment and Pricing for Steel and Glass Doors
Pricing is determined by door size, configuration, glass specification, and chosen finish. Because every door is made to order and tailored to your project, we provide detailed quotations following an initial consultation. Electroplated finishes represent a premium investment compared to powder coating, reflecting the additional material cost and specialist application process. We work with clients who value quality, longevity, and design integrity, and our pricing reflects the craftsmanship and exclusivity of the product. For an accurate quotation based on your specific requirements, we invite you to get in touch with our design team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our services and how we can help you
What makes electroplated steel doors different from powder-coated alternatives?
Electroplating deposits a thin layer of metal onto the steel surface, creating rich, layered tones with natural depth and variation. Powder coating applies a coloured polymer finish that sits on top of the metal. Electroplated finishes such as antique brass, copper, and bronze shift subtly with light and viewing angle, adding warmth and character that powder coating cannot replicate. We manufacture genuine steel doors with electroplated finishes because they deliver the aesthetic quality expected in luxury interiors.
Can you match specific dimensions and proportions for my project?
Yes. We manufacture every door to order, so we can tailor width, height, glass panel configuration, and frame profiles to suit your space and design intent. During the consultation stage, we discuss your requirements in detail and provide drawings for approval before fabrication begins. This made-to-order approach ensures our doors integrate seamlessly with your interior scheme.
Do you supply doors for commercial projects as well as residential?
Yes. We work on both high-end residential and boutique commercial projects. Our client list includes Harrods, Tiffany & Co, Rolls-Royce, and Estée Lauder, as well as international commissions for hotels, retail spaces, and hospitality venues. Whether you are an architect specifying doors for a private residence or a developer working on a commercial interior, we can support your project with the same level of design service and fabrication quality.
What finishes are available beyond antique brass?
We offer a curated range of electroplated finishes including antique brass, antique copper, antique bronze, gunmetal brushed, gold plating, and chrome plating. Each finish has distinct tonal characteristics and surface texture. We provide samples during the design stage so you can assess how each option complements your interior palette and lighting conditions before making a final decision.
How long does the fabrication process take?
Lead times vary depending on project complexity and current production schedule. Once we have confirmed your design, dimensions, and finish selection, we provide a clear timeline for fabrication and delivery. Because we manufacture in-house, we maintain direct control over quality and scheduling, and we keep you informed at each stage of the process.
Do you install the doors, or do I need to arrange my own contractor?
We arrange delivery and can coordinate with your contractor or installer to ensure correct fitting on site. Many of our clients work with their own builders or joiners, and we provide technical support and installation guidance as needed. If you require a recommended installer, we can discuss options during the consultation stage.
Are steel and glass doors suitable for period properties?
Yes, when proportioned and finished appropriately. We have supplied doors for Georgian townhouses, Victorian conversions, and listed buildings where the design brief called for contemporary intervention that respects the architectural context. Electroplated finishes such as antique brass and bronze can harmonise beautifully with period detailing, while the clean lines of steel framing provide a refined counterpoint to traditional joinery.
What type of glass do you use, and can it be customised?
We use toughened safety glass as standard, and we can specify clear, frosted, textured, or tinted glass depending on your privacy and aesthetic requirements. Glass thickness and specification are confirmed during the design stage to ensure compliance with building regulations and structural performance. If you have a particular glass type or treatment in mind, we discuss feasibility and sourcing as part of the consultation process.
Why should I choose Artell over other steel door suppliers?
We are the only UK company offering genuine steel internal doors with electroplated finishes in antique brass, copper, bronze, and gunmetal brushed. Most suppliers provide powder-coated black steel or aluminium frames designed to look like metal. We manufacture in-house using engineered steel profiles and furniture-grade electroplating, delivering depth, warmth, and surface quality that standard alternatives cannot match. Our client list includes Harrods, Tiffany & Co, and Rolls-Royce, and we have been refining our fabrication process since 1995. If you are working on a high-end residential or boutique commercial project and want doors that function as a design statement rather than a generic partition, we offer the material quality, finish range, and design service to support that ambition.
