LIMITED 5 YEAR WARRANTY

For Masonite AvantGuard™ Factory Finishes

This warranty applies to the factory finish.

Additional written warranties apply to the fiberglass

entry door and other door components.

If the nish is properly maintained and subject to the

exclusions stated below, Masonite warrants that for a period

of 5 YEARS from the date of original purchase by a retail

consumer or a builder, Masonite’s factory-nished AvantGuard

nish will not peel, crack, blister or fade excessively as a

result of defects in manufacturing or materials. Masonite

grants these warranties only to the original purchaser of

the door and the original resident of the building where the

door was installed. This warranty only covers the door and

does not apply to any factory nished components that may

be sold in combination with the door. THIS WARRANTY

IS NOT TRANSFERABLE AND ONLY APPLIES TO

DOORS INSTALLED IN RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES.

THE FOLLOWING ARE NOT DEFECTS AND

ARE NOT COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY:

1. Slight variations in the color or texture of the nish,

2. Moderate color fading resulting from exposure to

normal atmospheric conditions (sun, rain, etc.),

3. Damage caused by a third party or something other

than a defect in the manufacture or material used by

Masonite (i.e. abuse, improper use, vandalism, impact by

a foreign object, act of God, re or other casualty, damage

caused by improper handling, storage or installation by

freight carriers, distributors, installers or other parties).

THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES

WILL VOID THE WARRANTY:

1. Failure to maintain the nish in accordance with

the written maintenance instructions*;

2. Exposure to air pollutants such as acid rain and

to chemicals such as acids, salt or fumes;

3. Any failure or settling of the structure/building/

foundation into which the door is installed,

4. Installation of a non-vented storm

door over the berglass door;

5. Damages caused by attempts to

repair or re-nish the door, or

6. Other causes beyond Masonite’s control.

*MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS: Proper

maintenance will not only protect your door during

the warranty period, it will also extend the life of

the finish. The door should be regularly cleaned with non-

abrasive soap and water; no chemical cleaners should be

used. The door should be routinely inspected and if the nish

appears dull or has other changes in appearance, follow

the technical instructions posted on www.Masonite.com.

Review the maintenance instructions for further details.

INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. This

warranty gives you specic legal rights. Other rights vary

from state to state and may apply to you. Some states and

federal laws do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties.
