Frequently Asked Questions
Does this door come pre-finished or sealed?
No — the door is supplied raw and unsealed. All edges, faces, and end-grain must be sealed with a suitable exterior timber finish before installation. This is essential to protect the timber from moisture and ensure long-term performance.
What finish should I apply to a meranti exterior door?
Meranti accepts most exterior timber finishes including oil-based stains, polyurethane varnish, and exterior paints. For best results, apply a penetrating primer or sealer to all surfaces and edges before your chosen top coat. Reapply periodically as part of routine maintenance.
What frame is required for this door?
This door leaf is supplied without a frame. A suitable exterior timber door frame sized to your opening will need to be sourced separately. Contact us for compatible frame options.
Is meranti a good timber for exterior doors?
Yes. Meranti is a widely used hardwood for exterior joinery in South Africa. When kiln-dried and properly sealed, it offers good dimensional stability, durability, and resistance to warping — making it a reliable choice for entrance doors in residential and light commercial applications.
Can I order this door in a custom size?
