A Guide to Choosing Painted Doors
Our painted doors are manufactured using high quality hardwoods to which a superior quality paint is then
applied. The grain of the wood is still visible through the painted layer, maintaining its integrity. There are 4
different finishes available in our painted ranges and it is important to choose very carefully so you get the finish
that suits you best.
All of our high quality hardwoods are kiln dried to a moisture content of 8-12%. However, timber, by nature, is
susceptible to expansion and shrinkage depending on the environment in which it is installed. This means it
could expand when there is an abundance of moisture in the air, particularly in winter or when excess moisture
is prevalent in renovated or new builds. Contraction may occur in the summer months when the climate is drier.
This potential natural movement of the timber can cause any layer of paint, lacquer, varnish etc that has been
applied, to move with it and may result in panel shrinkage and hairline cracks along the joints of the door. This
is considered to be a positive feature, adding an authentic look and feel to the kitchen of any customer who
appreciates the fine, natural qualities of timber.
For customers who would prefer not to live with the natural characteristics of timber, a PVC door would be the
ideal choice. Unlike timber, it remains static and is available in a range of colours and styles.
