28"x78.5" Antique Vintage Old Reclaimed Salvaged SOLID Wood Wooden Interior Door 5 Panels
* Please note that the 28"x78.5" in the title is just an estimate. The door is not exactly that size. Please see "Dimensions" below.
Elegant, antique interior door salvaged from an old, home in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The door is made of solid Douglas Fir or pine and has 5 raised panels on both sides. The door is stained on the front side side and painted on the back side.
When most people hear "pine" they think of a cheap, weak, soft wood. New pine hewn from 10 - 20 year old trees don't have the same insect-resistant, rot-resistant, or even fire-resistant qualities that old pine, hewn from trees hundreds of years old have. Old pine is also much harder and stronger than young pine.
Hardware: The door is not equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of hardware to outfit it (check out our eBay store).

Quirks & Considerations:
The height of the door was unevenly cut by 3/8". The cuts were most likely made to accommodate a warped floor or sagging foundation. We could cut the door to an even height/width, or cut it narrower/shorter, or even build it up to be wider/taller--message us for a quote.
The door has 2 split panels (see last photo). Expansion and contraction occurs naturally due to changes in temperature, and the cracks are just a result of this process over the course of many years. It may sound funny, but when the panels expanded and reached their limits within their openings or frames; they were unable to stretch out any further, and ultimately cracked in the center to relieve their stress or tension.
Condition: Considering the door is well over 100 years old, it is strong, sturdy and in great condition. It only has nicks and scratches, but no breaks, cracks, gouges or any other serious issues. Most of the blemishes that it has will disappear after sanding, prior to refinishing or repainting, and whatever remains will be subtle, "character marks".
Swing: The door is set up to swing into a room towards the left, or away from a room towards the right. We can modify the door to swing in the opposite direction--message us for a quote.
Modification: Do you want to replace the panels with glass, screen/mesh, or something else? We could modify the doors 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.
