Veneer Flush Doors

 What is a Veneer? 

A veneer is a thin slice of the Timber/ wood. Like when we peel a potato to make chips, in a similar manner, a veneer is a thin slice taken out from a log. Most people even today say 4mm veneer sheet. Actual veneer thickness is + or - 0.5mm, pasted to the plywood.

There are Natural veneers and Recon Veneers. A slice obtained from Natural Wood/Log,  whereas Recon Veneers undergo a process of dyeing,  laminating and re-slicing before obtaining the desired color and pattern.

As part of Natural Wood characteristic, grains/look, and pattern variation may occur from piece to piece, batch to batch and do not indicate a product defect.

Recon veneer, on the other hand, offers more consistent grain patterns and the difference between batches may not be as wide compared to the Natural range.

For Doors which is Best? Slice veneer pasted to door in Factory or market sold 4mm veneer sheet pasted on the door?

Definitely factory pasted veneer on the door. Generally, door shutters thickness starts at 30mm and this thin slice can be pasted directly on one side or two sides.

The market sold 4mm veneer if used, then door thickness will increase to 30mm + 4mm + 4mm and also, you will have to buy 32 square feet ( 8 x 4- 1 nos) for a door of 18 square feet ( 81" x 32"). Imagine the wastage.

WHY TOILET / WASHROOM DOORS GET DAMAGED QUICKLY? Can we protect them?

  Toilet doors / Wash Room Doors :-   Just Imagine if there are no toilets, how we will survive? Where we will excrete? J ust because our excretes give foul smell which comes from our body, and we release them in the Toilet, no one cares much about the Toilet doors as perfectly as Bedrooms or other doors. Why these toilet doors get rotten quickly? Just because of washing the floor number of times in the toilet,  the blockage of our shampooed hair & other particles at the water outlet, jams the water for some time, and indirectly soak the bottom of the door occasionally, at least once in a week.This is the reason why Washroom doors / Toilet doors gets damaged, black colour, fungus, mushrooms, sponge form like wood etc..

WHAT IS A FLUSH DOOR?

Flush Door:- Flush doors are simple doors that have plain facings on both sides.  They can be interior (more commonly) but also exterior.  They are often used where space is at a premium,  and would probably be placed towards the “functional” end. Flush doors may have a solid timber, Solid Particle board, Tubular particle, Honeycomb core.  Flush doors may be supplemented with a type of Veneer / laminate or plywood on each side.  Good for exterior doors as they provide more insulation and strength. A solid timber core flush door has a basic structure composed of solid blockboard core, vertical stiles, and horizontal rails that create a pre-fixed frame. The blockboard is composed of wooden strips that are placed edge-to-edge and sandwiched between veneers, then bonded under high pressure and temperature using a synthetic resin. So in a simpler term, it is a door that is made of a timber frame covered with ply from both the sides and then the hollow part inside is filled with rectan
