I can highly recommend these guys:
http://doormaker.co.uk/ (same company here: http://www.jonathanelwellinteriors.co.uk/)
We had ours done last year (Oxford) and they cover all areas.
Not cheap but the finish and end result is fantastic
Quite liking the look of this one but in a lighter colour, any views of iroko v European oak? Iroko does sound hardwearing and stablehttp://doormaker.co.uk/ (same company here: http://www.jonathanelwellinteriors.co.uk/)

If old Blighty could have grown iroko back in the day, we'd still have oak forests as the Navy would have used iroko. doormaker.co.uk/iroko-door-gfl16/
Its extremely stable, doesn't really shrink and is naturally oily. It's one of the finest timbers available for joinery imo .

We installed a couple of their windows and I had a quote for the front door too. Silly money (as were the windows to be fair). I can dig it out to check but think it was getting on for £4k.My folks put one of the doors in their clifftop property on the south coast, and it is withstanding the associated weather, salt etc very well 5-6 years later.
