Krosswood Doors Warranty
reaction of the product, shall void any warranty or claim. Handling
All doors are packaged for forklift loading and unloading. They are palletized and banded together. Upon receipt, any
shipping damage must be noted on the bill of lading and reported immediately to the delivering carrier and UberDoor.
Doors must be stored flat on a level surface in a dry, well ventilated building at least 4” above the ground and covered
to avoid direct sunlight, as well as moisture, dirt and dust.
Doors must be conditioned to average prevailing relative humidity and temperature of the locality before hanging.
Do not walk on doors or drag doors across one another, particularly if they include raised molding.
Doors must not be subject to extreme or rapid changes in heat or humidity, including, without limitation, sudden
changes resulting from forced heat used to dry out a building.
If doors are stored at a job site, all six sides must be sealed with an effective quality oil-based or mineral-based sealer in
order to prevent unacceptable moisture absorption.
Installation
When hanging doors, allow adequate clearance between the door and frame for normal swelling of the door or frame in
damp weather. Clearances between the door edges and door frame must be a minimum of 1/16Ǝ on the hinge side and
1/8Ǝ clearance on the latch side and top rail. When cutting, use a sharp fine-tooth saw.
Caution must be used to avoid impairing the strength of the door when fitting for locks or other hardware. Allow at
least 1” of wood back of the mortise.
Pilot holes must be drilled for all screws that act as hardware attachments.
Use a minimum of three hinges on doors up to 7’ tall and four hinges on doors over 7’ tall. Hinges must be set in a
straight line to prevent distortion of the door.
Jambs and stops must be set square and plumb.
Immediately after cutting and fitting (and before final hanging) seal all surfaces and ends of the door with an effective
quality sealer.
Do not install doors before ‘mudding’ and taping of sheet rock has been dried and completed.
Finishing
For best performance, doors must be finished lying flat.
Sand entire door with appropriate grit of sandpaper in the same direction as the grain.
Finish must be applied immediately after fitting and hanging, but not during or after high moisture times.
Remove dust before finishing.
