Good to know

Treatment is of utmost importance to keep wood protected and aesthetically beautiful, especially in South Africa where harsh conditions prevail.

Neglecting to treat or incorrect treatment of a wooden product will result in and assist with rapid deterioration.

Prior to installation, doors should be stored flat on a level surface in a dry ventilated area.

Doors Online does not recommend varnish for any exterior wooden products.

Varnish does not penetrate the timber but only forms a surface layer, prolonged exposure to sun causes resin in varnish to harden and crack, allowing moisture to penetrate into the timber causing decay, discoloration and ultimately wood rot.

If doors are prepared for painting a universal sealer should be applied to all six sides prior to painting the door.

Painted timber swells and shrinks as seasons change. This might lead to cracking of paint and exposing of unpainted areas.
