The Story Behind Our Signature Front Door

30th April 2025

At Runnymede Homes, design tells a story—and nowhere is that more true than at the entrance to our Weybridge offices. Our front door, believed to be over 100 years old, was salvaged from a building demolished in the mid-1980s to make way for one of our earliest property developments in Surrey.

This historic door has become a defining element of our brand. For decades, we’ve commissioned replicas of the original door and installed them in our luxury new homes across Surrey.

These substantial, classically designed entrances showcase the attention to detail, traditional craftsmanship, and architectural integrity that define our homes—setting the tone for the quality and elegance found within.

Recently, we lovingly restored the original door and its surround to preserve its charm and extend its life for another century. It continues to welcome visitors to our offices and stands as a proud reminder that at Runnymede, great design truly stands the test of time—and the difference is in the detail!
