Wood Overlay Doors

Carriage house style doors with real wood overlays for a traditional, high-end look.

  • Cedar, mahogany, hemlock and composite overlay options
  • Carriage, ranch and custom panel layouts with decorative hardware
  • Insulated base panel for stability and thermal performance
  • Factory or site-applied stain and paint finishes

Wood Overlay Doors questions

How much maintenance do they need?
Plan on refinishing every three to five years, sooner on a west or south facing elevation with heavy sun exposure.
Do they weigh more than steel doors?
Yes, which is exactly why the spring system must be sized to the finished door. We calculate it, never estimate it.
