Penn Antique Restoration 28"x84"x1.75"
Antique Interior Door w/Single Panel
Elegant, antique, interior door salvaged from an old row house in Harlem, NY. The door has a single, recessed (flat) panel on both sides. The door has a solid chestnut core covered with 1/8" thick hardwood veneers on both sides. I can't tell what type of wood the veneer is unless I remove a decent portion of paint Please don't think that "veneer" means ...inferior quality. Unlike the paper-thin veneers used on modern doors and furniture, these veneers are very thick and provide strength and stability to the door. This door could be refinished many times without sanding down to the core wood.
Hardware: The door is not equipped with any hardware. However, we have a good selection of period hardware to outfit the door (check out our eBay store).* If you would like any of the hardware holes plugged with solid wood, please email us for a quote.Uneven Height/Width: The width of the door was unevenly cut by 3/8" and the height by 1/4". The cuts were made most likely to compensate for the home's settling foundation or a warped floor. We could cut the door to an even 27 5/8"x83 1/", cut it narrower/shorter, or even build it up to make it wider/taller--email us for a quote.Condition: Aside from a small, thin piece of veneer missing from the lower left corner on the exterior side; the door is in excellent condition. We got the door in an exchange, and the person who we got it from said that he just sanded, primed, and painted the door. We did scuff up the paint in a few small spots on the way to our warehouse, but all the door needs is a good cleaning and some touch-up with white, semi-gloss paint.Refinish/Repaint: We could refinish, repaint, or partially or completely strip the door to prepare it for you to repaint or refinish. See the last photos in this auction as an example of our work. Email us with a small description of what you would like done, and we'll give you a quote.Swing: The door is currently set up to swing into a room towards the right, or away from the room towards the left. We could make it swing in the opposite direction--email us for a quote.Modification: We could also modify this door to fit your opening or suite your needs. We could make a frame, trim or add to the height or width, replace panels with glass, 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.
