Which Surface Finish to Choose for Interior Doors and Frames? Even though the appearance and design are the first things that catch your eye when it comes to doors (and frames), it is worth considering other features and not forgetting practicality in terms of daily use. The next step should be selecting the right surface finish for the door leaf. When making your choice, consider the environment where the doors will be used. Different surface finishes vary not only in appearance and texture but also in their resistance to mechanical damage.
FOIL
Cashew Foil |  | Doors with cashew foil are covered with a decorative foil in wood designs or white color, suitable for interiors without increased wear. The main advantage is affordability. |
CPL Laminated |  | Laminated doors are suitable for high-traffic areas. They are practical due to their mechanical durability, color stability, and easy maintenance. Available in various colors and wood decors.
Some wood decors feature a 3D texture that mimics wood grain. |
PVC Foil |  | PVC foil is used exclusively for profiled doors. This finish highlights the prominent profiling of the doors and is characterized by high durability and easy maintenance. |
Soft CPL |  | Soft CPL is a surface material used for doors with a frame construction. It features a wood grain texture with high resistance to abrasion, scratches, and fading.
Soft CPL is a commercial term and does not indicate the method of material production. |
PAINT
Painted |  | Painted doors are a classic option, where the door leaf is sprayed with white paint or various shades from the RAL color scale. The standard option is water-based paints, while mechanically more durable polyurethane paints (PUR) are available at a higher cost. |
EBC Painted | | Highly durable white painted surfaces are cured using an electron beam and polymerization of acrylic-based compounds. Compared to other painting methods, EBC technology ensures 100% curing of the paint. The perfectly smooth surface without pores and texture is highly scratch-resistant and retains its color. |
HPL
High-Pressure Laminate - HPL |  | This composite material consists of several layers impregnated with resin. It is manufactured under high temperature and pressure. Thanks to this production technology, HPL doors are highly resistant to abrasion and easy to clean. These properties ensure a long lifespan, making them ideal for medium to high-traffic interiors (public buildings, schools, etc.). |
VENEER
Veneered Surface |  | Doors with a veneered surface are perfect for lovers of natural materials. Their beauty lies in the uniqueness of each piece. Veneer is a thin slice of solid wood, which, like wood itself, is color-unstable. Its color may change over time due to exposure to light. |
SOLID WOOD
Solid Wood |  | Solid wood creates a healthy and pleasant indoor climate thanks to its natural properties. It has a natural and luxurious look. However, it is color-unstable, meaning the material changes over time due to light exposure and its intensity. |
