Features of Solid Wood Door

The core of solid wood door is derived from the natural forest logs, it made through the processes of scientific processing such as drying, cutting, planning, mortising, drilling, high speed milling shaped. Solid wooden doors has the characteristics of no deformation, corrosion, crack-free and good thermal insulation, sound insulation, wood grain texture and color clarity.

Several Steps to Maintain Solid Wood Door

Firstly, clear wooden surface stains with soft cotton. Hard cloth will easily scratch the surface. If stains are too hard, you can clean them with a neutral detergent, toothpaste or furniture special detergent, and then wipe it dry. Avoid washing with rinsing.

Fourthly, hinge and lock are active accessories, which should be immediately tightened when they are loose. When there is sound in the position of hinge, oil should be added timely. Fifthly, due to the feature of wood shrinkage and swelling, under the situation of large differences in temperature and humidity, they are normal natural phenomenon, such as a slight crack or shrink. Do not panic, and as the seasonal changes, this phenomenon will disappear naturally. Sixthly, in order to maintain the bright color of the wooden doors, it should be waxed regularly.

Therefore, the solid wood edge veneer is the highest level of practice of modern wooden doors. On the other hand, both traditional solid wood door and modern wood composite door can be divided into significantly high, medium and low levels because of their differences in materials, textures, and other factors. The core of the doors is made of high-quality, dried white pine which can avoid finished door cracking, deformation results from excessive moisture content, and the middle part is the 5 mm thick MDF and the surface is made of imported wood veneer.
