Setback for Bore Option.
Our lock set bore is set
to 2-3/8” setback.
When your door arrives expect the
following...
Each solid
wood Timberlake door will be unique to all others. There will always be
differences in the grain of the wood. Variation occurs from tree to tree.
The components of the door brought together as one solid door will be one
of a kind, your own personal door. Wood fibers do take on moisture and
do release moisture relative to the air around them. This results in a
natural occurrence of expansion and contraction. This is kept at a
minimum with wood that has been properly cut and dried. The separate
components of styles, rails and panels are connected in such a way to
allow the fibers to breathe without interfering with the stability of the
door. This is what we refer to as engineered construction. There may be
some very small nail holes that will need to be filled and sanded before
finishing your door. The nails were put there to hold areas that were
glued together.
All of our Timberlake doors come with black
sealant oozing from the glass. (Photo right). This is a complete back bed of butyl to
prevent water from penetrating the door. It takes ~ 3 dry days to set up
and cure . Please do not handle or touch the sealant if it is not
completely cured. The over abundance of sealant provides protection from
water leakage. The extra can later be cut off at a right angle with a
razor blade. It is most important that you leave some (how much? 1/16
inch) protruding beyond the wood.

On a door that is pre-bored for a lockset
and dead bolt, there will always be some bore fragmentation. This
appears as splintering around the perimeter of the bore. In all cases, the
splintering is covered by a lock escutcheon. (Photo left)
