LIMITED WARRANTY FOR MDF INTERIOR DOORS
Canadian Use Only
WORLDDOORS are manufactured with a factory
primer. All non-primed doors (must be requested) are excluded from warranty.
WORLDDOORS are warranted for one year
from date of shipment to be free from defects which cause them to be
unfit for the use in which they are intended if the following conditions
are kept.
STORAGE AND
HANDLING:
- Building site delivery
must be after plaster, drywall and/or cement are dry.
- Store doors on a flat
level surface in a clean, dry, well-ventilated building. Do NOT
lean against walls.
- Protect doors from the
elements, and dirt, water or abuse, but allow air circulation.
- Take care to protect
the routered grooves, French door designs and slab face patterns.
- Mortise for hinges must
be machined to commonly accepted standards. (Pre-drill all screw
holes and do not use chisels)
WARPING:
- Warp will not be considered
a defect unless it exceeds ¼ “. The suspected warp is measured by
placing a straight edge on the concave face of the door. Calculation
of the warp is made at the point of maximum distance between the
straight edge and the face of the door.
FINISHING:
Note: There is no guarantee on the appearance of the field finished
doors.
- Before finishing clean
and dry doors. Remove handling handling marks or effects of exposure
by sanding lightly and cleaning before application of finish. Sand
and clean between coats.
- To help prevent from
warping, twisting or checking; apply at least two coats of a good
grade oil, lacquer or plastic based paint on all six faces of the
door.
- If a door is going to
be exposed directly to sunlight, avoid dark colored paints. This
will help to minimize warpage.
For doors found defective
after inspection by an authorized WORLDDOORS
representative, they will on their discretion
Repair the door without charge

If a defect is found within the above stated one year, then written
notice of any claim under this guarantee must be received by WORLDDOORS.
If a defect is found upon receipt of shipment from WORLDDOORS
notice must be given within 30 days thereafter and before the door is
hung in any manner.
If the above-mentioned conditions have not been met, WORLDDOORS
cannot be liable for any doors repaired/replaced without prior written
consent.
We assume no responsibility for re-hanging, repainting, or refinishing
the doors. WORLDDOORS is not responsible
for transportation, shipping, removal, loss of use, or installation
charges incurred in replacing a product.
