Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This door is supplied fully finished and ready to hang. Ensure you have the correct tools for door installation, including a tape measure, spirit level, screwdriver, and potentially a saw if minor adjustments are needed. Always check the door's dimensions against the door frame before fitting. It is recommended to fit the door in its final position before hanging, ensuring hinges and latch mechanisms are correctly aligned.
Compatibility:
The door is designed for internal use only. It is compatible with standard internal door frames and hardware. While a range of sizes is available, always confirm the exact dimensions of the door and your frame. Consider compatibility with other doors in the XL Joinery Victorian range, including glazed and fire-rated options, if a consistent look is desired across multiple doorways.
Care:
To maintain the finish, clean the door with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the oak veneer and the finish. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe dry immediately. Protect the door from excessive moisture and direct, prolonged sunlight, which can affect the finish and the wood.
Handling:
Always handle the door with care during transport and installation to prevent chips, dents, or scratches to the pre-finished surface. Using gloves and moving the door on a protected surface is recommended.
