Door Finishing Questions and Answers: Do you pre-finish your doors? Yes, all of our Designer Composite Doors are PRE-FINISHED. You do have the option to Upgrade to have the Door Frame (Jamb) Prefinished also for an extra charge. We no longer manufacture Custom made Mahogany Doors. Why? We have been in business for over 35 years. We have been around long enough to see what happens to wood doors with natural finishes after just a few years, let alone 35. When we developed the Designer Composite Door , our goal was to offer the public a product that would last a lifetime. Composite Doors, Yes, we pre-finish all of our composite doors. We have mastered the techniques of applying a variety of unique metallic or distressed faux wood finishes to these magnificent doors. Close-Up Pictures of Available Faux finishes for our Composite Doors
One of the aspects of our doors that makes them so special is the finish, so we are proud to offer such quality and character to our doors. Over the course of time in owning and using your door, you may have occasion to need to do a "touch-up" on some area of the door and we will supply you with a kit complete with everything you need. PRESERVATION OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL
FINISH:
If
you have what we term an extreme exposure environment- i.e.- the door faces
southeast, the door is hit with direct bright sunlight most of the day, the
door has no portico or overhang, you live on a hill and get the wind and
blowing rain, etc., you may want to put on a top of our commercial extra hard
urethane finish. With varying conditions it hard to say how often, but we
have installations, 5 years old, all over the country and have yet to have a
customer consult with us about adding a top coat. If your door is hanging in more moderate
conditions, you have a big
porch, protective overhang, facing east or northeast, just forget about it.
Cleaning the door, You may simply wash the glass and door with a very mild detergent, 1 drop of baby shampoo in a gallon of water, and dry with a rag or paper towel. On my door, I like to use a CAR WASHING BRUSH, the one with the long soft bristles, and scrub into every nook and cranny, then rinse it off with clean water, I actually use a hose. You aren't going to hurt the door, glass or finish. But if you do, be gentle don't shoot a bunch of water inside your house. You may want be more conservative method on the inside. HA. HA. Never use a pressure washer of any type. Dave
