External wooden doors

External wooden doors should be specified around the opening, intended use and compatible door system — not as an isolated product choice. Timber doors vary by construction, species or veneer, moisture exposure and intended location. Paint, stain, lacquer or clear finishes can be appropriate depending on the door, but edges, faces and cut-outs need compatible protection and maintenance.
