Cedar is the ‘industry standard’ timber. Oak’s weight prohibits many designs, but Woodrite’s small but perfectly formed range is a classic. Idigbo – the ‘looks like oak’ alternative that is much lighter, lower in cost and consequently available in a huge range of designs. Last, but not least, is Accoya®. Accoya® is the new super material that is widely used in the construction industry because of its incredible stability ‘50 years above ground and 25 years in ground or freshwater’ – impressive! Woodrite’s ten-year warranty is something that can really be trusted. For painted doors Accoya® is ideal and takes a paint finish perfectly with no tannin leaching or staining from knots. GOOD REASON 06 Great finishes Woodrite work closely with its stain partners to provide the widest range of classic finishes, contemporary finishes and a colour matching service for Farrow & Ball and other paint systems. GOOD REASON 07 Opening choices Up & over, side hinged and matching side doors are available for almost every style.5 GOOD REASON 08 Build choices Up & Over doors are available in two build types. Solid-build doors are Woodrite’s truly premium product. They have deeper edge rails, solid profiles front to back and beautiful rounded chamfer detailing. From the back they look just as good - edge to edge timber! Panel-built doors are made with narrower rails and are less thick than solid doors, deriving their strength from a concealed steel sub-chassis. They still look great but are a lower cost alternative. GOOD REASON 09 Bespoke designs Woodrite has years of experience in bringing to life one-off bespoke designs for wooden garage doors to individual taste. Whatever the requirements, Woodrite will guide customers on the best way to approach a special project. Simple or complex, there isn’t much Woodrite can’t do with wood! GOOD REASON 10 Real warranties Woodrite’s warranties are genuine. Because Woodrite build and protect doors properly, the 5 & 10 years’ warranties available on the finish are, with basic maintenance, exactly what they say, not just a number that, when challenged, means nothing. So… There you have it, the rather impressive story of how Woodrite doors are made to last and showcase the wonderful, natural material that is wood.
