What makes bespoke joinery different?
When every millimetre matters, bespoke joinery turns ideas into exact-fit, long-lasting results. It’s the difference between forcing a product to fit and crafting something that belongs. At Hinson Custom Made, that level of care has been a constant for more than four decades, designing and building made-to-measure timber windows, doors and fitted elements for homes across Buckinghamshire and beyond.
Off-the-shelf solutions are built for averages; bespoke is built for your home. Precise site measurement, made-to-order profiles, and tailored ironmongery ensure clean sightlines, smooth operation and a finish that complements your architecture, period or contemporary. Materials are specified for performance (from timber species and glazing to seals and coatings), so your joinery doesn’t just look right on day one; it performs season after season. Responsible timber sourcing also matters: Hinson selects timber from replenished sources as standard, aligning beauty with conscientious practice.

The advantages of custom-made interiors and fittings
- Perfect fit & proportion: Made-to-measure frames and panels respect the lines of your property, avoiding clumsy fillers and awkward gaps.
- Cohesive design language: Profiles, mouldings and finishes tie rooms together, subtle details that make a home feel considered.
- Performance by design: Thermal efficiency, air-tightness and security are planned in, not retrofitted.
- Longevity & reparability: Solid timber joinery is built to be maintained, repaired and refinished over time, extending life and reducing waste. The British Woodworking Federation notes timber joinery as a natural, sustainable choice, especially when backed by FSC®/PEFC™ supply chains.
How Hinson marries craft with modern design
You get the best of both: traditional hand skills for detailing and finishing, paired with modern machinery and proven, high-performance timbers. From CAD-aided design to precision machining and spray finishing, the result is crisp, consistent craftsmanship that still feels handmade. Hinson’s process, covered in their guide to crafting bespoke timber windows, shows how materials, profiles and finishing are specified around your brief and the building’s character.
Project types we deliver (and why they work)
Windows that respect your architecture
From flush casements to traditional sash, bespoke windows maintain period proportions while meeting modern performance expectations. For heritage and conservation projects, Hinson replicates original sightlines and detailing to satisfy planning while improving comfort.
Statement entrance and garden doors
Front doors, French sets and timber bi-folds blend security, durability and presence. Whether you prefer minimal profiles or richly detailed joinery, Hinson builds doors that elevate kerb appeal and flow.
Complex openings and non-standard sizes
Arched frames, oversized portals, unusual reveals, this is where bespoke shines. Rather than compromising the design, joinery is engineered to your opening and use-case, so hardware, thresholds and clearances feel effortless day to day.
How custom joinery makes spaces feel better
- Light & lines: Slimmer, well-proportioned timber sections maximise visible glass and create quieter visual lines indoors.
- Thermal comfort: Timber is a natural insulator; paired with quality glazing and seals, it supports stable indoor temperatures all year.
- Acoustic calm: Properly detailed frames and gaskets can soften street noise, especially valuable on busy roads.
- Future-proofing: Because it’s repairable, timber joinery can be maintained and upgraded over time rather than ripped out and replaced.
