Surface Finishing

Tipwood Doors/Door frames & Windows/Window frames are supplied prime sealed, ready for finish painting. Before applying coatings round off door/window and frame edges and remove any dirt, dust, grease, moisture or surface contamination. If sanding becomes necessary, only lightly sand the surface using a fine 400 grit paper.

Prime all door/window and frame edges with an interior, solvent borne wood primer and apply two coats to the top and bottom edges. Allow the primer to dry, then finish paint the door with one coat solvent borne undercoat and one coat solvent borne matt or gloss paint. A second coat of matt or gloss paint may be applied for the highest quality finish. Lightly sand between coats with fine grit paper.

Water based paints, varnishes and polishes recommended by the paint/coating manufacturer for use on door/window and frames, may also be used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Painters should be aware that some water based paints may be subject to paint sticking on closed surfaces. Matt, Low-gloss and Satin finishes also tend to scuff and mar more predominantly than Gloss finishes.

Always select and apply paints in accordance with the paint manufacturer's recommendations.

Site Preparation, Installation and Care

Tipwood Doors/Door frames & Windows/Window frames are specially designed to be fitted into a completely finished apartment or home, after complete masonry, plastering and flooring has been laid. Unlike conventional building practices, you do not have to purchase the frames at the beginning of your construction project.

At the time of placing order, decide the openings for the doors and windows in consultation with the building contractor or architect. At the time of placing order for Tipwood Building Products, the opening sizes should be maintained at a positive tolerance of the size ordered. The two faces of the finished wall should be completely parallel to each other, without any undulations. Corners should be at perfect 90 degrees.

Tipwood Building Products are supplied with supplied seven (7) fasteners to secure the door/window frame to the designated wall, columns or partition. Three (3) fasteners are used on each of the two vertical members of the frame and one (1) is used on the horizontal member. The door is fitted with three (3) anodized hinges of 3" length along with three (3) stainless steel screws for each hinge. After securing the frame to the wall, the door is to be screwed on to the frame, at the designated marked locations, with three (3) stainless steel screws for each hinge, supplied by the factory.
