FAQs
Is the door completely finished, or do I need to paint/stain it?
The door comes pre-finished with a coat of lacquer on its main surfaces. However, any edges that are trimmed during installation, as well as any drilled holes for hardware, must be sealed with a compatible varnish or paint to maintain the integrity of the engineered core.
What is an 'engineered' door?
An engineered door uses multiple layers of wood, often combined with other materials, to create a more stable and durable product. This construction helps to prevent warping and twisting, and in this case, contributes to better sound and heat insulation.
Can I hang this door with the glass facing a specific direction?
The etched glass panels are streamlined in the same direction as the oak panels. While you can technically hang the door either way, for the intended aesthetic, ensure the glass etching aligns correctly with the panel direction in your desired orientation.
What type of wood is used for the door?
The door is crafted with American white oak.
How much weight can the door handle?
While the door has an engineered solid core for durability, specific weight handling capabilities are not provided. It is recommended to use appropriate hinges for solid core doors and ensure they are installed correctly.
What are the dimensions of this specific door?
This particular door variant measures 1981mm in height, 610mm in width, and 35mm in thickness.
Troubleshooting
Door won't fit frame properly
Double-check the door and frame dimensions. If the door is slightly too wide or tall, carefully trim edges, ensuring to re-seal any cut surfaces immediately.
Pre-finished surface is scratched or marked
Minor marks can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consult the manufacturer's recommendations for repair kits or touch-up varnish.
Reduced sound insulation
Ensure the door is properly sealed within the frame. Check that all gaps are minimized and consider adding a door seal strip if necessary. Verify that no parts of the engineered core have been exposed and left unfinished.
Glass panel is chipped or damaged
Contact the retailer or manufacturer for advice on repair or replacement options. Avoid applying pressure to damaged glass.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Before hanging, ensure the door is acclimatized to the room environment for at least 48 hours. Any necessary trimming should be done from the door edges, not the top or bottom, and these cut edges, along with any rebates for hinges or locks, must be properly sealed with a suitable varnish or paint to protect the engineered core. It is recommended to use three hinges for stability. Ensure all hardware is compatible with the door's thickness and weight.
Compatibility:
This door is designed for standard interior door frames. Confirm the door dimensions (1981mm height x 610mm width x 35mm thickness) match your existing frame or a new frame being installed. It is compatible with most standard ironmongery such as hinges, handles, and locks.
Care:
Clean the door with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the pre-finished surface. For deeper cleaning, use a mild detergent diluted in water, ensuring the cloth is wrung out well. Dry the surface immediately after cleaning. Protect the door from excessive moisture and direct, prolonged sunlight.
