DesignerPly is not recommended for ‘non-fixed panels’. Doors that are hinged on one side are not fixed and therefore DesignerPly should not be used in this application unless straightening supports are used. Even smaller doors have the propensity to bow or cup under certain environments i.e., change of weather/humidity, proximity to large windows and even heating and cooling can affect the manner in which any plywood behaves. Plywood is timber and can expand and contract.

A Powder Coat Finish offers far greater durability to the finished board and contains absolutely no VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) which are found in most other surface coatings.
