Original title: Master the \”Four Looks\” for Solid Wood Doors

If the windows are the eyes of the house, then the door is the neckline of the house, which is indispensable It is a practical product and an indispensable decoration.

Doors are divided into two categories – outdoor doors and indoor doors. Today\’s outdoor doors have become the world\’s anti-theft doors. Anti-theft is the main function, so I won\’t go into details for now.

Indoor doors come in a wide variety of styles, including wooden, plastic, metal, and glass, all of which are dazzling. Throughout the world of today\’s doors, most are made of wood, so we should focus on understanding the choice of wooden doors.

Wooden doors are divided into two categories: solid wood doors and artificial wooden doors. There are many brands and varieties of these doors. Although the prices vary, the sellers all praise them, while the buyers are panic-stricken, like walking into a maze and not being able to distinguish. Nowadays, everyone has a lot of money in their hands, and they strive for perfection when decorating their homes. Naturally, there is also an increased aesthetic demand for doors. However, it is difficult to avoid a common problem when choosing wooden doors, which is deformation, commonly known as \”warping.\” How to solve this problem?

All solid wood doors cannot be completely dry and cannot escape the law of thermal expansion and contraction, so they may deform. The difference lies in the density. The deformation coefficient of solid wood doors with high density is small and even invisible to the naked eye, while the deformation coefficient of doors with poor density is relatively large. The density of solid wood doors can also be determined based on the feel.Judgment, feeling the weight of the door is the most superficial way to judge.

Generally speaking, heavy solid wood doors have a small deformation coefficient. For example, hardwood doors or higher-grade hardwood doors have a very small deformation coefficient. Of course, such solid wood doors are also very expensive. Artificial wooden doors are made of wood fiberboard, and their deformation coefficient is relatively small. As long as they fit tightly after installation, have regular dimensions and are installed carefully, there will be no obvious changes in the future. In short, choosing a solid wood door is mainly about the material, and choosing an artificial wooden door is mainly about the workmanship. If you master this method, you can basically solve the hidden danger of door deformation.

Experts report: Tips for choosing a door: First look at the finish (model and paint color); Second look Certification(Toxic substance content); Thirdly look at the material (solid wood material); Fourthly look at the workmanship (Whether the size is regular and the joints are tight). If you master these \”Four Observations\”, you will not be confused in the labyrinth of doors.
