Handsome ,
antique, pantry door salvaged from an old, home in
Northeastern PA. This door was original to the home's
construction and the home was built during the first half of the
previous century.
The door is made of solid Douglas Fir or pine and has a single
recessed (flat) panel on both sides. The door is painted white
on both sides.
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).

Uneven
Size :
The width of the door was unevenly cut by 1/8"
while the height by 1/4", the cuts were made most likely
to accommodate a warped floor or sagging foundation. We
could cut it to an even 27 3/8 x 75 3/8", cut it narrower/shorter, or
even build it up to be wider/taller--email
us for a quote.
Condition : The
door is
strong, sturdy, and in excellent structural condition. It only has
nicks and scratches, but no major breaks, cracks, gouges, rot, warp,
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".
(See last photo for the worst blemishes on this door).

strip/refinish, or partially or completely strip the door to
