32"x78" Antique Vintage Old Reclaimed Salvaged Wood Wooden Exterior French Door Window Wavy Glass
32"x78" Antique Vintage Old Reclaimed Salvaged Wood Wooden Exterior French Door Window Wavy Glass
Beautiful, antique, French door salvaged from an old home in Northeastern, PA. The door has a solid Douglas fir core covered in a 1/16" Heart pine veneer. The door is stained on both sides.
Please don't think that "veneer" means inferior quality. Unlike the paper-thin veneers used on modern doors and furniture, these veneers are 1/16" thick and provide strength and stability to the door.
Please note that heartpine is the non-living, core of a pine tree, and not the soft, outer, living sap-wood. Since it takes 30 years for a pine tree just to develop just 1” of heart stock it is rarer, harder, more durable, more insect & rot resistant, less susceptible to warping and twisting, and is much more valuable than the cheap, pine lumber that is commonly found at most hardware stores.
The door has an impressive arrangement of 15, true-divided windows with old, wavy glass.
Hardware: The door does not come equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of period hardware to outfit it (check out our eBay store).
* If you would like any of the hardware holes plugged with solid wood, please email us for a quote.
Condition: The door is strong, sturdy and in great structural condition. It has the typical scrapes, scratches, and small nail holes that you would expect to find on an old, used door. The door has a few breaks and spots where the veneer is peeling. Otherwise, there are no broken or cracked joints, gouges, rot, or warp. The small blemishes they have will disappear or diminish drastically after stripping and sanding.
All of the glass is intact and in great condition with only subtle scratches.
Swing: The door is set up to swing into a room towards the right, or away from the room towards the left. We could modify the door to swing in the opposite direction--message us for a quote.
Modification: Do you want to replace the glass with wooden panels, screen/mesh, or something else? We could modify the door to fit your opening or suite your needs. We could make a frame, trim or add to the height or width, 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.
