Yurt Workshop pioneered the use of glass windows and doors to create bright, cheerful yurts that connect with nature and let in natural light.
Our handcrafted yurt doors and windows are truly one-of-a-kind.
While they follow the traditional design queues from Mongolia, we use modern glues and finishes, adding our own special touch.
This ensures that the doors not only work perfectly but also complement the beauty of our yurts.
We also offer custom oxidised hinges to enhance the look of these doors. If intertested plesde get in touch.
In Mongolia, yurt doors are crafted with specific dimensions and shapes for good reason.
The wide, thick frame provides better sealing against the covers, while the high threshold helps keep out dirt and snow.
The lower door height isn’t just for easier transport—it also shields from the wind and adds to the yurt’s aesthetic appeal.
Unlike our Mongolian counterparts, we craft our doors and windows using ash wood.
Ash is an exceptionally durable material, suitable for all climates, making it the ideal choice for yurt doors and windows.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Yurt doors and windows differ from conventional ones, as yurts generate stress in the opposite direction.
Drawing on centuries-old Mongolian and Central Asian craftsmanship, we build our doors with durable wood, using traditional mortise and tenon joints.
For added strength, we seal them with high-quality boatmakers’ glue, ensuring years of reliable use.
Regarding door height, we prefer a frame that aligns closely with the top of the yurt wall for aesthetic balance, but we can customize larger doors if needed. All doors come with a security lock and traditional frame poles.
FINISHING
We take great care to ensure your door looks fantastic and lasts. Each door and window is carefully sanded and smoothed before applying a premium two-part German finish, with four coats for a flawless result.
OUR YURT DOORS
We offer a variety of doors, from solid wood to full glass. Popular options include the Moorish door with an Arabic-style window, the 3/4 glass door, and the stable door. We also provide double and double glass doors (French windows).
OUR YURT WINDOWS
We also offer a range of windows, from floor-standing to full wall height, available as either opening or fixed.
Our double-glazed windows transform the typically dark interior of an insulated yurt into a bright, airy, and cozy space.

Thanks Rob and Ratna, I have this incredibly beautyful Yurt with a lot of windows that gives all the light I need for my work as a painter.
I have never seen this quality in any other Yurt. After this terrible rain we had now in Andalucia, -the Yurt is totally amazing!
I can never stop thanking you! "
