Door Materials, Finishes & Lead Times

• Wood and Glass are a product of nature and are never flawless, these natural variations are to be expected and do not constitute a defect. The variations will vary within reasonable tolerances that are considered industry standard.
  
• The nature of an applied finish, along with the unique qualities of nature or manufactured wood, can create an unbalanced or inconsistent look. All finishes are susceptible to discoloration due to airborne particles such as cooking, frying, smoke, fireplaces or candles. Prolonged exposure to natural or artificial light and/or moisture may alter the finish color. Touch up or replacement items completed after installation may not result in an exact match.
  
• Glass: Spontaneous breakages without any recognizable external influence are physically unavoidable and do not justify the purchaser’s rights of defects. Spontaneous fractures are usually caused by inclusions or foreign particles that cannot be avoided in the glass production. The break itself cannot be ruled out in such a case.
