Colours

We do our best to produce accurate images but there may be some slight variation between how the colour appears on your screen and how it looks on the door. We always recommend ordering free colour swatches or purchasing a sample door so you can see exactly what your colour choice will look like.

Door images

Please note that doors and drawer fronts are sold separately. Our images show doors with their corresponding drawer fronts, but this is for illustrative purposes only.

Expressions door specification

All Expressions doors have a hardwearing, wipeable vinyl surface and are manufactured from 18mm thick MDF.

All Expressions products come with a 6 year manufacturer's warranty as standard

Expressions products have an FSC and PEFC certification, meaning the wood is sourced from sustainable and well managed forests.

Door and panel sizes

The largest door/panel we manufacture is 1495mm high by 1200mm wide.

The minimum height for doors/panels is 80mm, and the minimum width is 80mm. Maximum width is 1200mm.

Drawer front design

Drawer fronts are supplied with a drawer design on all sizes up to 282mm high. Drawers 283mm and over will be supplied as a door design. The minimum height is 80mm and minimum width 80mm. Maximum width is 1200mm.

Grain direction

Doors are supplied with vertical grain.

Drawer fronts are supplied with horizontal grain unless specified otherwise.

The grain direction of panels will match the doors - except panels below the height of 282mm, which will be supplied with horizontal grain unless stated otherwise. The backs of panels will match the backs of the doors.

Horizontal grain is available as a special request in all woodgrain colour options. High gloss colours are available with horizontal grain up to 1200mm high. Standard woodgrain colours are available up to 1200mm high.

The same applies to wine rack fronts, modern canopies, plain canopies, T&G canopies and PVC panels, and are made as specified.

Handles

Handles are not supplied as standard, please choose any handle you wish from our range, or fit your own.

Some handles will not fit small drawer fronts and care should be taken before fitting to ensure that the handles you have chosen will fit the size and style of doors/drawers that you have chosen.

Frame doors

Frame doors are supplied unglazed, with a rebated back and a soft glazing gasket.

Doors can be supplied as Open Frames or Georgian Frames.

Georgian frames will be supplied as follows:

Drilling for hinges and handles

All doors come undrilled as standard.  However, we offer a hinge hole drilling service for a small charge.

Please let us know your hinge hole measurements and we will drill them accordingly. Measure from the top or bottom of the door to the centre of the hinge hole. If you need any guidance on measuring for hinges, please give us a call.

You can have your hinge holes drilled from 60mm from the bottom and top edge of the door.

Due to the large number of sizes available, we are unable to drill for handles.

Matching door backs

The term 'matching back' means that the door will have a similar coloured melamine back, rather than a vinyl back and as such the colour and texture may be different from the front of the door. In particular, textured and high gloss colour doors will be supplied with a smooth matt finish back.

All doors are supplied with matching finish backs except Avola Grey (Stone Grey back), High Gloss Cappuccino (Cream back), Magnolia (Ivory back), Ontario Maple (Acacia back), Paintable Vinyl (White back) and Montana Oak (Lissa Oak back).

High gloss colours

High gloss finishes are manufactured using a heavier gauge vinyl and as such definition can be less sharp on items which have more detailed designs. 

We strongly recommend getting a sample doors to see the style and colour for yourself before placing a full order.
