First selection for a door, usualy comes as wood species selecting.
In this planet, there're a lot of woods which are all great choices for solid wood doors. Like Black walnut, Cherry, Maple, Oak etc, all of these woods are what we consider to be classic woods of enduring beauty – perfect for hardwood doors. With over 30 years of a proffesional door maker, African Mahogany is an absolutely beautiful wood for use in very high-end doors.
Mahogany is a true classic, renowned for its beauty, strength, and versatility. Here are a few things that come to mind:
Richness and Elegance: Its warm, reddish-brown hue with subtle grain patterns evokes a sense of luxury and sophistication. Solid Mahogany door adds a touch of timeless elegance wherever it goes.
Strength and Durability: This dense hardwood is naturally resistant to rot, warping, and insect damage, making it ideal for long-lasting applications. For centuries, mahogany has been prized for its ability to withstand the test of time.
Versatility and Workability: While strong, mahogany is also relatively easy to work with. Its fine grain takes finishes beautifully, allowing for a range of styles from the rich, deep tones of traditional polishes to lighter, contemporary looks. This makes it a favorite among woodworkers of all skill levels.
Affordable cost: Mahogany is quite cheap we import from Africa these years, not like some wood from the North American, you don't have to pay too much on the wood which will bring you a nice door for your home.
