MATERIALS TO FIT YOUR DESIGN. CRAFTSMANSHIP TO FIT YOUR STANDARDS.
MATERIALS
To manufacture durable doors, only the best materials available are used. Our stringent quality control begins with the selection of properly kiln-dried and balanced solid woods to prevent warping, as well as the required density core products and premium-grade face materials. Since we pride ourselves in the appearance of our veneered doors, special attention is given to the hand-matching and splicing of all veneers to our demanding specifications.
We offer all commercially available domestic and imported veneers, including reconstituted veneers. We provide any veneer cut and match available. We also offer all specified high- pressure decorative laminates, as well as hardboard and overlays for paint finishes.
SIZE/CONSTRUCTION OPTIONS
Standard doors are available in 1-3/4" standard thickness and other thicknesses by request. The unitized core system bonds the stiles, rails and particle board into a stabilized, stress-free assembly which is sanded to tight tolerances. This assures a flat, smooth surface of uniform thickness, eliminating telegraphing regardless of facing material. The 5-ply wood or painted construction method for veneered doors further results in a clean, attractive edge detail.
We also offer a bullnose edge detail for pivot-hinged doors which are widely used by movable wall system manufactures.
FACTORY FINISH OPTIONS
Few things match the beauty and elegance of a well-finished door. To achieve the level of quality unattainable with field-finishing techniques and to reduce installation costs, we recommend that you ask for factory-finished doors.
Our factory finishes are second to none. All surfaces are first prepared with abrasive planing and careful hand-sanding. For veneers with a clear coats production finish, two coats of sealer and two coats off topcoat are applied, with hand-sanding between coats. If a color match is specified, the required stain is applied before sealer and topcoats. We can match virtually any tint or color and will submit a sample for your approval, including any special finishes.
We also offer a superior quality paint finish on hardboard-faced doors, with primer, paint and varnish coats resulting in an even, solid appearance, matched to any color specified. Plastic laminate doors receive the same paint or stain finish on both edges to match the face color.
GLAZED DOORS
Opening for glass inserts are made to specifications, any size within the limits of industry standards for glass surfaces. We provide integrated hardwood framing, bonded to the core, for added stability and to prevent the splitting of face materials in the corners. Glass is optional and can be factory-installed on request.
