Why Meranti?

Meranti is a dense, close-grained hardwood widely used in South African joinery for its natural durability, dimensional stability, and excellent paint or stain adhesion. Kiln-drying reduces moisture content before manufacture, minimising the risk of warping or shrinkage after installation — a critical quality factor for exterior doors exposed to seasonal temperature and humidity changes.

Design Detail

Raised and fielded panels are machined with a stepped profile that creates depth and shadow lines across the door face. Ten panels arranged in a traditional configuration give this door a formal, symmetrical appearance suited to heritage, Cape Dutch, and contemporary classic architectural styles.

Installation Notes

• Supplied as a door blank — frame, hardware, and finishing are not included unless specified
• Timber doors should be sealed or primed on all six faces (including top and bottom edges) before installation to prevent moisture ingress
• Allow a standard 2–3 mm clearance on each side and at the top; 5–8 mm at the bottom for threshold clearance
• Lead time: approximately 12–14 working days
