I've been looking for a front door for a client. They want a solid hardwood colonial style door for me to paint. It seems that "Solid" doesn't actually mean one type of wood and in fact most seem to be veneered. As the door will have to be trimmed by half an inch I am worried that there wont be enough veneer to stand that much trimming. And why do the door merchants advertise Dowelling "for extra strength to avoid twisting and warping" when I always assumed Mortice and tennon was preferable ?
