Door Industry Journal - Summer 2015

THE door industry journal summer 2015 Also online at: www.dijonline.co.uk A RAINBOW OF FINISHES FROM WOODRITE Back in 2010 when Woodrite launched its range of timber garage doors, there was a choice of Cedar in six wood shades and the rather revolutionary (at the time!) metallic silver and metallic slate grey. Today, Woodrite has added Oak, Idigbo and Accoya® to the range of timbers, a choice that much better reflects the woods consumers expect to be able to buy for their homes. A rainbow of extra wood shades and the option of primed or RAL finishes has made Woodrite’s colour options almost limitless. Woodrite’s stain supplier, Teknos, has proved to be an invaluable partner in ensuring Woodrite can provide a five year warranty on Cedar, Idigbo and Oak finishes and now a ten year warranty on it’s recently introduced Thetford range made from Accoya®. Accoya® is also perfect for painted doors as there are no tannins or resins that can leach through the paint finish. The current popularity of heritage colours is definitely being seen at Woodrite and here Teknos is able to provide a matching service that brings these classic colours to customers and maintains the five year warranty. Pictured is a trio of doors supplied to NDC in Lightwater, Surrey, (www.ndcgaragedoors.co.uk) that are typical of the trend, finished matched to Farrow & Ball Cardroom Green. All styles and finishes feature in Woodrite’s new range guide.
