Frequent Q & A
Doors:
1.- What is the best wood for my entry Door?..... Answer: I need to understand some facts:
1.1 Job-site location: City; orientation of entry door: (N?, S?. W?, E?); Overhung supplied?: (None, some,
complete shaded).
1.2 Size of your Door? : (3x7)?, (3x8)?, (6x8)?, other?.

With this in my hands, I will be able to recommend: Alder, Mahogany, Red Grandis, Spanish Cedar, Walnut, Maple, Mezquite, Bamboo, Cherry, to mention some.......
2.- Is there a maintenance I need to do for my entry Door?.....
Answer:
2.1 If is a full shaded location, it will need monthly cleaning as your fine Furniture; dry new "fine cotton" rag to
anti dust. Some high-end oils can be lightly applied once every 4-6 months (always applyng on the
rag, never over the wood direct).
2.2 If is a sunny direct light exposure, it may need professional maintenance on the outside face every year.
(Rustic101 Care Plans available).
3.- Are your Doors pre-hung:? / finished? .....
Answer:
= Yes, its the best service you can get from Rustic 101. Now, I work with your own preference: so if need it
as a "door-only" (slab-only), I do that; and if you want to apply your own finish, I will bring you a
stain-grade" door for you to have fun doing your own colors.
