General Information – and
Policies
Wood Species
Although we carry a very large selection
of products, not all doors are stocked in all wood species.
If you require “specialty” wood doors (i.e. cherry,
walnut, ash, bird’s eye maple
etc.), please consult with our staff regarding prices and availability.
Wood Color
All wood doors will have variations in shade and grain. This
is part of the character and beauty of natural wood products.
Grades (PT, ST, V)
Paint Grade is the least expensive, and has more colour variations
(PT)
Stain Grade may have color and grain variation, minimized by
the application of a stain and shading techniques. (ST)
Varnish or Select Grade is as uniform in color as possible,
and graded acceptable for a clear varnish. (V)
Again, Keep in mind that all wood doors will
have variations in shade and grain. This is part of the character
and beauty of natural wood products. If a grade is not specified,
Stain is assumed.
Pair Match
Available only on flush doors, please specify pair match on
your order for all cuts of wood, except rotary cut.
Cuts of Wood
Rotary has a curly type grain, most commonly, only Birch is
rotary cut.
Flat or Plain cut is the most common, and alternates between
cathedrals and straight grain.
Rift and Quarter Cut are mostly straight
vertical grain,& less
common, but highly requested for modern looks & offices.
In all woods, there can be figure, a squiggly
effect in the grain, this is part of the character of wood, and
not to be deemed a defect.
Door Sizes
Most of our doors are available in standard and odd sizes.
Odd sizes add $30 as noted on price lists.

of producing doors at your own design. Our knowledgeable staff
