CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION TO DOOR

A door is a solid barrier that is fixed in an opening in a wall to hinge, pivot, or slide pen (or close).

The door opening or doorway allows access and agrees from the building and between rooms, compartments, and corridors. As a part of a wall the door and if the frame is integral to the overall performance of the wall.

Doors are meant to provide access to the room of a building. They may be constructed of wood, plywood, glass, metal, or a combination of these materials they are located in such a way that easy movement and privacy of the room is achieved. For this reason, the door is generally placed at the corner of the room in one line. This provides good ventilation and easy movement for the users.

1.1 DEFINITION OF A DOOR

A door can be defined as a hinged, sliding, or revolving barrier at the entrance of a building, room, or vehicle or in the framework of a cupboard.

1.2 CLASSIFICATION OF A DOOR

The wood door may be classified as:

– Paneled doors

– Flush doors

PANELED DOOR

Paneled doors are framed with stiles and rails around a panel or panel of wood or plywood because the door is hinged on the side to open, it tends to sink on the lock stile.

The stile and rails have to be joined to resist the tendency of the doors to sink.

FLUSH DOOR

A variety of flush doors are manufactured with plain flush faces on both sides and fibreboard facing press molted often with comparatively shallow sinking to resemble the appearance of a paneled door.

1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

This project is aimed at using timber towards the construction of the panel door by the carpenters.

It will try to examine some of the importance of timber to the student while undertaking the project endeavor in using timber in the construction of a pane door.

1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The essence of this project is to draw the attention of the students, carpenters, and individuals in constructing a panel door using timbers.

This research draws the attention of the individuals to the need for timber for the construction of a panel door as well as its uses in storing and making a panel door.
