Painting/Staining

Staining: We use Minwax Wood Finish stains. We apply the stain and three coats of a clear polyurethane finish. We can also apply just a clear finish without any stain. Best to refer to minwax stain color chart. Please note that sample colors are done on oak wood. Other wood types will look different in both color and grainline. Colors may also vary depending on your computer screen. We do not match stain colors. If you are trying to match a specific color, it is best to order the door unfinished and stain it locally. 

Painting: Our standard paint is Behr Satin White. We apply two coats of primer and two coats of paint. We can also match any paint color. We require a 3" x 3" (or larger) paint chip for color matching. Color matching is an additional upcharge per door, plus the cost of painting. We can also just primer the doors, which is less than painting our standard white. When you place your order, you can request touch up paint or stain for $5.00.

*Please note that the edges of the doors are not painted or stained. It's normal that trimming has to be done during installation, so we do not finish the edges. All edges must be finished after installation to protect the door. Failure to finish the edges could result in a shortened life span of the door

About Our Security Doors

Wood Security Doors offer the look of a traditional screen door, but provide more security! The screen is a heavy duty, high-tensile steel wire screen that is resistant to forced entry, being cut, kicked in, dented or torn! Never have to re-screen your door again! Wood Security doors have the same airflow and visibility of a regular screen door. Available in the styles shown below. Offered in 1-1/8" Thick Oak or Mahogany - very hard woods to help prevent the wood breaking if kicked. Available as a regular screen door, or you can make it a storm door by adding a glass panel that goes on over the screen to provide extra installation during the winter. Doors come unfinished, or you can have us stain or paint them. Special hardware is included with Wood Security Doors. We do not pre-drill or install the hardware to the door. This way it can be placed on either side and any location needed, and allows the door to be trimmed if needed. Wood Security Doors are available in any size up to 48" wide and any height up to 96" tall.

Maintenance

As with any wood product that is outdoors and exposed to sunlight, rain or water, it is very important to maintain your door. The paint or stain can last from 6 months to several years depending on the conditions and how much sunlight it is exposed to. The sun will fade the finish no matter what type of wood the door is or what type of finish it has. Doors will need to be refinished as needed to ensure the longevity of the door.
