Handling, Finishing, and
Installation Instructions
-
All Doors are Mill Sanded and do require Hand sanding before finishing.
-
Sand all surfaces with an orbital sander using 150-180 grit sandpaper.
-
Thoroughly
sand over the entire Door with a vibrator sander using 180 grit
sandpaper or finer.
-
Apply
all finishes as soon as possible after finish sanding. Finish all
surfaces, including the top, bottom, and sides of the door. We
recommend a Finish that has UV inhibitors for exterior doors. See
your local finishing professional for finish applications.
-
Avoid using dark paint or stains on the door surfaces facing south, west or in direct sunlight.
-
Doors
must be installed under a porch or overhang of some type. This
over hang must extend out beyond the installed door one half the
distances from the sill of the door to the bottom of the overhang to be
covered by this warranty.
-
Defects on material or workmanship must be reported upon receipt and prior to installation.
-
Always put lath or plywood down before stacking doors or mouldings on concrete or any damp surface.
-
Interior
wood products must be maintained under stable temperature and humidity
conditions, 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit, and 35-50% Relative humidity is
required to be covered by this warranty.
-
Do not expose doors to direct sunlight before finishing
-
Prompt,
proper sealing and finishing is essential to maintain wood stability.
Doors must be finished on all sides and edges within one (1) week of
delivery to job site.
-
Replacement requests are subject to the inspection and approval of Good’s Millwork LLC.
-
Do
not expose finish grade products to rain/snow while loading or
unloading. Water spots will show up after job site finishing.
-
Any
door which is reduced in height or width or altered in height or width
in the field voids all manufacturers’ warranties regardless of how the
finish is applied and cannot be returned for credit.
-
Good’s
Millwork LLC reserves the right to postpone repair or replacement for
warping up to 12 months, as it is not uncommon for a temporary warp
condition to appear while the wood adjusts to local temperature and
humidity throughout the first year after installation. This period will
not be counted against the warranty.
-
Deliver
doors to the jobsite after any interior masonry or plaster is cured and
dry. All edges and surfaces of doors must be sealed if doors are stored
on the jobsite more than 1 week.
