External joinery refers to the construction and installation of wooden components used in the exterior areas of buildings. It plays a crucial role in enhancing the aesthetics, functionality, and durability of structures such as homes, commercial buildings, and outdoor spaces.
One of the primary purposes of external joinery is to create doors and windows that provide security, insulation, and weather resistance. Craftsmen use various joinery techniques, including mortise and tenon, dovetail, and tongue and groove, to create strong and sturdy frames. These frames are then fitted with glass panels or solid panels, depending on the design and requirements.
Additionally, external joinery involves the construction of structures like porches, pergolas, gazebos, and balconies. These additions not only enhance the architectural appeal of a building but also provide functional spaces for relaxation, entertainment, or protection from the elements. Skilled joiners meticulously plan, measure, and construct these structures, ensuring they blend seamlessly with the overall design of the property.
When it comes to external joinery, selecting the right type of wood is crucial. Hardwoods like oak, mahogany, and teak are popular choices due to their durability and resistance to rot and decay. Softwoods such as pine and cedar are also commonly used, particularly for painted finishes or when a more cost-effective solution is desired.
