Tips one, four look

One look at the finish (shape and paint color); the second look at the certification (the content of toxic substances); the third look at the material (solid wood material); the fourth look at the workmanship (whether the size is regular and tightly fitted). Only by mastering these "four views", one will not be ignorant of the authenticity in the labyrinth of doors.

Technique two, listen to the sound

When choosing a solid wood door, you can check the thickness of the door, and you can tap on the door with your hands. If the sound is even and dull, it means that the door is of good quality. Generally, the higher the proportion of solid wood in a wooden door, the heavier the door will be. If it is a pure solid wood door, the pattern on the surface is very irregular. At a glance, the surface of the door has a smooth, neat and beautiful pattern, which is often not a real solid wood door.

Tip three, look at the paint

As the later process of the factory processing of the suit wooden door, its pros and cons directly affect the subsequent use effect. At the same time, the cost of painting is also one of the larger parts of the cost of wooden doors. The types of paint are roughly divided into phenolic paint, alkyd paint, polyurethane paint, nitrocellulose paint, polyester paint and PU paint. Among them, phenolic paint and alkyd paint are basically eliminated in the decoration due to the poor texture and adhesion of the paint film, and a large number of them are nitrocellulose paint, polyester paint and PU paint used on high-end furniture. Nitro-lacquer is widely used due to its simple construction and suitable for manual operation, but its paint film is thin, the hand feels not good, and the effect is not ideal.

Due to cost processing methods and equipment issues, 90% of the suit wooden doors on the market currently use polyester paint, and a few manufacturers use PU paint. Generally speaking, polyester paint and PU paint have to go through six processes such as color finding, three bottoms and two sides. Some brands add curing and waxing processes.

Therefore, when choosing a wooden door, paint is one of the factors that must be considered. It directly affects the texture, feel, moisture resistance, environmental protection, durability, yellowing resistance and other issues.
