Featuring a robust construction with an unfinished surface, it offers complete control over the final aesthetics, making it an ideal choice for bespoke residential projects.

FAQs

Does this door come pre-painted?

No, this is an unfinished door blank designed for the end user to apply their preferred paint, stain, or protective finish.

Can I trim this door to fit a smaller frame?

Yes, it can be trimmed to fit, but it is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding how much material can be removed without compromising the fire-check structural integrity.

Is this door suitable for all weather conditions?

It is suitable for exterior use, provided it is correctly installed and fully protected with high-quality external-grade finishes to prevent water ingress.

Does the firecheck rating require specific hardware?

Yes, to maintain the fire integrity of the door, you must use fire-rated hinges, latches, and appropriate intumescent strips as specified by your local building regulations.

What is the primary benefit of a 'lipped' design?

A lipped design provides a more precise overlap with the door frame, which helps reduce drafts and increases the security of the door against unauthorized entry.

Troubleshooting

Door is rubbing against the frame after installation

Check that the hinges are properly seated and adjusted. If necessary, plane the edge slightly, ensuring you re-seal the exposed wood with an exterior-grade primer immediately.

Finish is peeling or bubbling

This often occurs due to insufficient preparation or moisture trapped beneath the coating. Sand the affected area back, ensure the wood is completely dry, and reapply an appropriate exterior finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of design customization due to the unfinished surface
  • Enhanced security provided by the robust core and lipped edge design
  • Built-in firecheck capability for added safety
  • High-quality construction from a reputable brand like LPD Doors

Cons

  • Requires significant preparation including sanding, priming, and finishing
  • Must be treated with appropriate external-grade coatings before installation
  • Heavy weight may require assistance during hanging

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a professional carpenter to ensure the lipped edges are correctly seated for maximum performance. Before installation, the door must be fully treated on all six sides—including the top, bottom, and side edges—using high-quality exterior wood preservatives and finishers. Failure to seal the wood properly can lead to warping or moisture ingress. When trimming the door, ensure you do not remove excessive material, as this may compromise the fire-check properties or the structural stability of the core.
