FAQs

Is this door suitable for bathrooms or en-suites?

While the engineered core offers better stability, it is recommended to ensure a thorough and complete sealing of the unfinished surface with a moisture-resistant finish if used in humid environments like bathrooms to prevent moisture damage.

Can I hang this door from either side?

Yes, the door can be hung to open from either the left or the right, depending on your room layout and preference.

What is the lipping size, and what does it mean for installation?

The door features 20mm lipping on each edge. This means you have up to 20mm of material on each side that can be trimmed to achieve a precise fit within your door frame.

How many panels does the 27-inch wide door have?

The 27" (686mm) wide door features the classic 6-panel Suffolk design.

Does the door come with pre-drilled holes for hardware?

This product information does not specify pre-drilled holes; typically, doors are supplied undrilled to allow for custom hardware placement.

What is the difference between this and cheaper doors?

This door utilizes an engineered core and solid construction for superior sound insulation and heat retention, offering better performance and durability compared to hollow-core or lower-quality solid wood doors.

How do I apply the finish?

Ensure the door is clean and dust-free. Apply your chosen stain or paint evenly with a brush or roller, following the product manufacturer's instructions for application, drying times, and number of coats.

Troubleshooting

Door does not fit frame properly after trimming.

Double-check all measurements before trimming. Ensure you are trimming from the lipping and not the core panel. Consult a professional if unsure.

Finish is uneven or patchy.

Ensure the door surface was clean and dry before applying the finish. Apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat, allowing proper drying time between coats.

Door warps or twists over time.

Ensure the door was properly acclimatized before installation and that all edges and surfaces were fully sealed with the chosen finish. Ensure consistent environmental conditions in the room.

Reduced sound insulation or heat retention compared to expectations.

Verify that the door is fully sealed within the frame and that no gaps exist. Ensure the door is the correct size and properly fitted. Confirm that the chosen finish has adequately sealed the wood.
