30"x94"x2 Antique Vintage Old Reclaimed Salvaged Wooden Wood Exterior Entry French Door 10 Window Glass

Tall,  handsome, antique, French door salvaged from an old apartment building in  Brooklyn, New York. The building was built around the turn of the previous  century and this door was original to the building's construction. There are 10, true-divided windows,  with a combination of wooden panels and glass. The door is  made of pine or Douglas fir and is completely painted.

When most people hear "pine" they think of a cheap, weak, soft     wood. New pine hewn from 10 - 20 year old trees don't have the same insect-resistant, rot-resistant, or even fire-resistant qualities that old pine, hewn from trees hundreds of years old have. Old pine is also much harder and stronger than young  pine.

We salvaged several similar doors from the same location, which  had no paint on their glass lites. The last photo is of one of those doors and it gives you an idea  of how this door will look with clear glass. While removing one of the painted  panels from this door with the intention of replacing it with clear glass, the  thought crossed my mind that we should just sell the door "as is" in case the  customer actually wants a 10-panel door rather than a 10-lite door. This will  also keep the cost down and potentially attract more buyers--let's hope so!  Please message us if you'd like a quote to replace the 10 panels with glass and  specify what type of glass you'd like (i.e. old wavy, beveled, etched-privacy,  clear tempered, etc).

Hardware: The door is not equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of  period hardware to outfit them (check out our eBay store).

* If you would like any of the hardware holes plugged with solid wood, please email us for a quote.

Uneven Size: The door's width  and height were unevenly cut by 1/4" at some point, most likely to  accommodate  for a settling foundation or warped floor. We   could cut the door to an even 29 3/4"x94 1/4", cut it narrower and/or shorter,  or  even build  it up to make it bigger--email us   for a quote.

Condition: The door is  strong, sturdy, and in great shape. It  has the typical scrapes, scratches, small nail holes that you would expect to find on an old, used door. There is no warp, rot, or any serious issues. Once the door is sanded for a new coat of paint, or stripped to refinish,  most of the blemishes would be removed. What remains will be covered by paint or stain, and only appear as a "character mark."

Refinish/Repaint: We  could refinish, repaint, or partially or completely strip the doors to prepare  any of them for you to repaint or refinish. See  the last photos in this auction as an example of our work. Email  us with a small description of what you would like done, and we'll give you a  quote.

Swing: The door is set up to swing inwardly towards the left or outwardly towards the right. However, we can modify it to swing in  the opposite direction--email us for a quote.

Modification: We  could also modify this door to fit your opening or suite your needs. We could  make a frame, trim or add to the height or width,  replace glass with screen,  reverse the swing, plug the hardware holes, etc. Email us with a small  description of what you would like done, and we'll give you a quote.
