Panel cores
There are a number of panel core materials available with a normal thickness of 18mm; however, other thicknesses can be achieved ranging from 3mm through to 30mm.
- MDF (medium density fibreboard), available moisture resistant, class 1 and class 0 fire rating
- Laminboard, a traditional laminated softwood construction of less weight
- Chipboard, available moisture resistant
- Plywood, for strength and moisture resistance
Lippings
Typically 9mm hardwood generally applied before facing so as not to be visible on the face of the door. Lipping options added after facing is available.
Additional features
Panels can be machined out with hardwood inserts where required to produce decorative feature groves. These can run horizontally, vertically and in square/rectangular patterns.
Decorative details such as mouldings/feature panels can be applied to the door (surface mounted) or machined out and let in to the door.
