This door was made out of Blackwood, and it is glazed with “rice paper laminate glass”.
the Grain on this timber is very beautiful and is heavier than a cedar or meranti door.

We continue manufacturing the Jarrah work for a hotel and as all the windows are done, we are onto the doors.
Here is one of the internal, Jarrah doors all finished. It weighs 47 kilograms, so quite heavy and will need good solid hinges to support it.
We are doing a rather large supply job for a hotel in a country town.
They have specified all kapur windows, doorframes and doors.
Here is the first assembled frame – it has a lovely red hue. It weighs, even unglazed, a huge amount and is so hard a timber, you need to pre-drill before using nails for beading etc.

I thought i posted this before, but perhaps not. Last few weeks we completed this arched doorframe in cedar.
Arched doorframe with awning sidelites.
A couple who ordered and bought a door from us has sent us a photo now it is installed and has the door hardware on it. This door was based on a photo the client took, and then adjusted to suit the doorframe opening. The other notable thing about this door is all the beading is on the inside so the front of the door has no seen putty or nail points.
We recently came back to a job to do some finishing touches, here are some photos;
All clear/natural anodise commercial framing. The doorframe has 2 doors, one panel smaller than the other. With invisiguard security screens. The bifold window is using CENTOR hardware and is top hung to allow for a marble servery to be used. The doors, bifold and louvre blades are also glazed with LOW-E comfort plus glass to keep heat out. The place looks great.
Today im posting a few images of some of the weird and wonderful things we are asked to make. These are louvres, fixed plantation shutters, some unusual doors and a door made from solid Oak (a fairly expensive timber compared to cedar or meranti).
Hope you like.

Those crime shows always have an interrogation room where the detectives can watch the interview with the criminal, without being seen.
That glass is called OBSERVA mirror, and works best with a light/dark ration of at least 5:1.
We made a little one for a client; remember it will work best when the inside room is very dark.
This is a 4 panel sliding door (2 active sliding doors, 2 fixed panels on either end).
size ; 2275 x 2870
glazed with 6.38 clear laminate glass.
This is a finished sliding door, with a flydoor.
Powdercoat is IRONSTONE, and you can see it is sitting within our steel jig to ensure the door is square and works perfectly before being taken by our client.
