Frequently Asked Questions
What does "rebated" mean for a double door pair?
Rebated meeting styles means each door leaf has a stepped profile machined into the closing edge, so the two doors overlap slightly when closed. This creates a neat, draught-resistant seal between the leaves without requiring a separate astragal strip.
What finish should I apply to a meranti exterior door?
Meranti exterior doors must be sealed, stained, or painted before installation. All faces, edges, and end grain should be coated with a quality exterior wood primer and finish system. A minimum of two finish coats over a primer is recommended. Do not install the doors unfinished — prolonged exposure to moisture will cause swelling, warping, and paint adhesion failure. Re-coat all exposed surfaces every 2–3 years depending on sun and rain exposure.
Is a frame included?
No — this product is supplied as door leaves only. Frame, hinges, handles, and locks are not included and must be purchased separately. Contact us for compatible double door frame options.
Are custom sizes available?
Yes — custom sizes are available on request. If your opening does not suit the standard 1613mm width or the available height options, contact us with your required dimensions and we will provide a quote.
What is the difference between semi-solid and solid timber doors?
A semi-solid door uses a structural timber frame with solid timber slats infilled between the frame members, rather than being milled from a single solid timber blank. This construction provides excellent rigidity and weather resistance while keeping the door weight manageable. The Meranti slats and frame in this door are all solid timber — the term “semi-solid” refers to the construction method, not the quality of the timber used.
What is the lead time for this door?
Lead time is 12–14 days from order confirmation. Custom size lead times may vary and will be confirmed at time of quote.
