Edge Strips

Strips fitted to the door's edges to protect the door leaf. They offer a cost-effective alternative to full door cladding and capping. Application can be along the vertical stiles or to all four edges to cover the full perimeter dependent on protection level required. Spence Doors offer PVC and Timber constructed Edge Strips; each offer distinct advantages defined by the door set's purpose. Specification can be alongside door manufacture and the door leaf can be profiled/prepared accordingly, or can be easily retrofitted for existing damage.

Minimising Maintenance

Edge Strips are of particular use on doors featuring a specialty finish like a Laminate or Veneer. These surfaces present risk of peeling at their edges; Edge Strips conceal these edges from exposure and protect them from direct impact & environmental conditions. This maintains the visual appearance of the door over the long term as the edges are safeguarded from peeling and degradation.

PVC or Timber

PVC is well suited to high-use setting as it offers a greater strength resistance, and to wet-areas as the material is resistant to moisture-related decay. Timber is a good option where cost efficiency and visual finish are important. The strip may be painted or stained for a premium finish or even concealed as the full perimeter Timber Strips are fitted under the door skin.
