-

Our timber products are available in three different finishing options: pre-primed, painted, or stained. All of these options are formulated to create a barrier between the timber and Australia’s varying climate conditions.

​

It is always recommended that you apply one of these options to your products, as it will increase the lifespan of your doors and windows.

​​

Our in-house finishing department uses world-standard procedures and equipment to maintain the timber’s structural integrity.​

 

Finishing consists of a four-part process.

​

Prepping

Each unit is bogged, puttied and sanded to ensure that the finish is soft, smooth and consistent.

​

Priming

The unit is primed (base coat) by dipping it into a staining tray or pre-priming it using a spray gun. This penetrates the timber and treats it for rot and infestation. Then, the unit is hung to dry in a controlled-temperature environment, which generally takes 24 hours.

​

Re Prepping

Once the unit is dry, it is lightly sanded to ensure an even and consistent finish throughout.

​

Topcoat

It then progresses to the finishing line, where a spray gun applies a topcoat or paint approximately 400 microns thick (equivalent to three coats of paint). The unit is then placed in the drying room, which is again at a controlled temperature.​
