FAQs

Does this door come pre-finished?

No, the LPD Hayes door is supplied unfinished, allowing you to select your own preferred stain, varnish, or paint finish.

Can I trim this door to fit a non-standard frame?

While minor trimming is possible, exceeding the manufacturer's recommended trimming limits can compromise the Mortice and Tenon joints. Always consult the specific technical documentation provided with your purchase.

Is the door suitable for a front entrance?

Yes, the door is built with robust joinery specifically intended for exterior use and high-performance entrance applications.

Are there other sizes available?

Yes, the Hayes range includes variations such as 1981 x 838mm and 2032 x 813mm to accommodate different opening sizes.

Do I need to treat the top and bottom of the door?

Yes, it is essential to seal all six sides of the door, including the top and bottom, to prevent moisture absorption and long-term warping.

Troubleshooting

Door is binding or sticking in the frame

Check if the frame is square and plumb; if the door is only slightly too large, lightly plane the necessary edges and re-seal the exposed wood with a protective treatment.

Moisture ingress or wood swelling

Ensure all six sides of the door, including the top and bottom edges, have been thoroughly coated with an appropriate exterior-grade paint or wood treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure the door is stored flat in a dry, cool area away from direct heat sources. Because the door is supplied unfinished, you must apply a suitable exterior-grade treatment (stain or paint) to all six faces of the door, including the concealed edges, before it is hung. Failure to treat the edges will void the structural integrity and potentially lead to water damage. Compatibility should be confirmed by checking your existing frame dimensions; at 1981 x 762mm, this door fits standard openings, but always double-check for 'square' in your existing frame to ensure a proper seal. Regular maintenance involves inspecting the finish annually and reapplying protective coats to prevent wood degradation.
