Flush Veneer Doors
FAQs
Q. Do the doors come in fixed
sizes, or can they be made to fit any opening?
A. The beauty of custom doors
is they can be made to fit to any sized opening. Since we come to
your home to measure your existing doors, we can ensure your new
doors fit the opening exactly.
Q. How much do they cost?
A. It depends on
wood species, sketch type (pattern of veneer), dimensions of doors,
size of order, etc., but a "typical" 2'-8" wide by 6-8" high door
in VG fir, with the "type 20" pattern on both sides,
machined for
standard hardware
(hardware not included), as part of an order of about 8 doors,
would cost approximately $825, including finishing, delivery and
installation.
Q. Do the frames have to be
changed?
A. No they don’t, we measure
and machine to fit your existing frames and hinges/strike.
Q. Does the hardware have to be
changed?
A. It doesn't need to be. We
machine your new doors to work with your existing hardware. We can
offer replacement hardware in the same size as the existing, if you
want to update the look (eg. replace brass with brushed
stainless).
Q. I don’t see a design that’s
perfect for me, can I get something different?
A. Yes. The face types and
veneers shown are just examples. Bring us your ideas - these are
hand-made for you.
Q. How long does it take to get
the doors?
A. We have a lead time of 8
weeks, from order to installation.
Q. How long will someone be in
my home doing the replacement?
A. Based on the average of 6
doors per condo, typical installation can be completed in one
day.
Q. What happens to the old
doors that are removed?
A. We take them away and
dispose of them responsibly. Some doors go to Habitat for
Humanity.
Q. Can I get my front door
replaced?
A. If you are part of a strata
you will probably need to have the change approved. We do offer
suite entry doors, fire rated up to 90 minutes. We don't recommend
our doors for very exposed outdoor locations.
Q. Can bi-fold or bypass closet
doors be replaced?
A. Yes. We can also provide
light weight cores, to work better with lighter-duty close door
hardware.
