FAQs
Can I trim this door to fit my frame?
Yes, you can trim the door, but you must respect the 20mm real oak lippings on the edges. Do not remove more material than the lipping allows.
Is this a solid core door?
Yes, it features a solid core engineered construction, providing greater weight, stability, and sound insulation than hollow core doors.
What finish should I use on the oak veneer?
We recommend using a high-quality furniture wax, wood oil, or a clear varnish to protect the natural oak and enhance the grain.
Can this door be used in a bathroom?
It is suitable for most indoor rooms, but you must ensure all edges are fully sealed to protect against humidity. It is not suitable for areas with direct water contact.
How many hinges do I need?
Given the weight of the solid core construction, we recommend using at least three high-quality hinges to prevent sagging over time.
Troubleshooting
Door is binding or sticking in the frame
Check for frame squareness and adjust hinges. If necessary, lightly sand the edge of the door within the allowed trimming limits of the 20mm lippings.
Finish is fading or looking dry
Ensure the door was properly sealed upon installation. Apply a fresh coat of compatible wood oil or wax to restore the luster of the oak veneer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, the door should be stored flat in a clean, dry area away from direct heat sources. When trimming the door to fit your frame, utilize the 20mm lippings; do not trim beyond these limits to maintain structural integrity. Always seal all edges, including the top and bottom, with a high-quality varnish or oil-based finish to prevent moisture ingress. Use at least three high-quality hinges to support the weight of the solid core construction. Regular dusting with a soft cloth and periodic application of wood furniture wax will keep the American white oak finish looking pristine for years.
