About us
Meet William
William’s career started at Mullen & Lumsden of High Holborn after completing a four year City & Guilds apprenticeship in carpentry and joinery at the Hackney Technical College.
He worked for various building and carpentry companies (including the House of Commons for Alan Apps joinery) before meeting Derek Heath when they both worked for W R Leggett in Clerkenwell.
When W R Leggett went into receivership Derek and William decided to form the London Floor Spring Company Ltd. This company lasted for 22 years, until Derek’s retirement in June 2018.
After a short break, with existing customers still asking for work to be carried out, William decided to re-start trading, now as William’s Door Services.
In addition to the ‘legacy’ service repairing and replacing door closers, William can now offer a full repair or replacement service for doors and windows.
By calling on the additional expertise of good friends Adam Wren (doors and joinery) and Ray Collard (windows and glazing) William’s Door Services can now offer repairs, refurbishment or replacement of frontage for retail premises, entertainment venues and office buildings.
