FAQ
Q1: Can the transom and sidelights be shipped fully assembled with the main door?
Yes, depending on the overall dimensions and shipping constraints, we can supply the system as a fully integrated, pre-hung unit to minimize on-site labor. However, for exceedingly large configurations, the transom may be shipped as a separate modular component to ensure safer transit and easier handling during installation.
Q2: What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the factory pre-finished solid wood?
We recommend a bi-annual inspection of the clear topcoat and weatherstripping. Depending on the door's exposure to direct sunlight, overhanging eaves, and harsh weather, a light reapplication of a UV-resistant topcoat may be required every 3 to 5 years to maintain the wood's pristine appearance and structural integrity.
Q3: Are the True Divided Lite (TDL) glass options energy efficient?
Absolutely. While traditional TDL systems often suffered from poor insulation, our modern TDL designs incorporate individual insulated glass units (IGUs) within the solid wood muntins. This provides the historical authenticity and aesthetic depth of TDL while meeting or exceeding contemporary energy efficiency building codes.
Q4: Can the door slab be pre-machined for specialized commercial hardware?
Yes. During the customization and specification phase, you can provide the exact templates for your chosen hardware, including panic bars, smart locks, multi-point systems, or concealed closers. Our precision CNC machinery will accurately route the door slab prior to finishing, ensuring a flawless fit.
Q5: How does the kiln-drying process prevent the solid wood from warping?
Our computer-controlled kiln-drying process slowly and evenly reduces the wood's natural moisture content to an optimal 8-10%. This stabilizes the cellular structure of the timber, ensuring that it remains dimensionally stable and highly resistant to warping, shrinking, or swelling when eventually exposed to fluctuating environmental humidity at the installation site.
