Troubleshooting

Door does not close properly.

Check for any obstructions, ensure hinges are correctly aligned and tightened, and verify the frame is square. The door may require adjustment or planing if it has swelled.

Finish is uneven or patchy.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared before finishing. Apply additional thin coats of paint or stain, allowing adequate drying time between applications. Sand lightly between coats if necessary.

Reduced sound insulation.

Verify that the door is a solid core model and that all edges are properly sealed against the frame. Gaps can significantly reduce acoustic performance.
