This commercial entry in Clayton had been repainted so many times the door had lost its original profile. Layers of paint and years of weather exposure had the timber swelling and binding in the frame. It was hard to open, hard to close, and beyond the point where another coat of paint would solve anything.
Repainting a swelling commercial door buys time — it doesn’t fix the problem. The timber was saturated and moving with every weather change. The business needed a replacement that would handle the same conditions without deteriorating.
