warranty is effective <strong>for</strong> interior door slabs and systems manufactured by us on or after October 1, 2008<br />

<strong>for</strong> use in the United States and Canada. Separate warranties apply <strong>for</strong> our Custom, Premium <strong>Wood</strong> and<br />

Exterior door collections. Any previous warranties will continue to apply to door products manufactured by<br />

us prior to this date. For additional in<strong>for</strong>mation, including care and maintenance, installation and finishing<br />

instructions, see your dealer or refer to www.jeld-wen.com.<br />

WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS<br />

We warrant to the original owner 1<br />

that JELD-WEN products<br />

will be free from defects in material or workmanship as<br />

identified below from the date of initial purchase <strong>for</strong> the<br />

time periods described below. Should an Interior door slab<br />

or system be deemed defective, we will, at our option, either<br />

repair or replace the defective product or components, or<br />

refund the purchase price.<br />

Owner-Occupied Single-Family Residence<br />

Limited Warranty<br />

from defects in materials and workmanship <strong>for</strong> five (5)<br />

years from the date of initial purchase.<br />

HOW TO GET ASSISTANCE<br />

dealer from whom you purchased our product or contact<br />

us directly:<br />

following: a) date and location of purchase, b) how to<br />

contact you, c) the address of where the product can be<br />

inspected, and d) a description of the apparent problem<br />

and the product (photographs are helpful).<br />

Product Purchase Date: _________________________<br />

Order Number: ________________________________<br />

What We Will Do<br />

Upon receiving your notification, we will send out an<br />

acknowledgement within three business days of receipt<br />

to the contact identified. We will investigate your claim<br />

Commercial Limited Warranty (Other than<br />

Owner-Occupied Single-Family Residence)<br />

Coverage is the same as <strong>for</strong> Owner-Occupied Single-Family<br />

residences as listed above.<br />

Transferability<br />

This warranty is not transferable.<br />

and begin to take appropriate action within 30 days after<br />

receipt of notification. If it is determined that the product<br />

does not have a defect covered by the warranty, we may<br />

charge an inspection fee <strong>for</strong> an onsite inspection that is<br />

required or requested by you. If we determine that there<br />

is a defect we will repair the product/component, or ship<br />

a replacement product/component to the distributor or<br />

person making the claim in the same specification as the<br />

product originally sold to the distributor. Replacement<br />

components/products are warranted <strong>for</strong> the balance<br />

of the original product warranty or 90 days, whichever<br />

is longer. If we are unable to provide replacement and<br />

repair is not practical or cannot be made timely then we<br />

will refund the purchase price. This guarantee gives you<br />

specific legal rights, and you may have other rights that<br />

vary from state/province to state/province.<br />

If the claimed noncon<strong>for</strong>mity is warp of a door slab,<br />

we may defer repairing or replacing the door slab <strong>for</strong> a<br />

period up to twelve (12) months from the date of claim. It<br />

is not uncommon <strong>for</strong> a temporary warp condition to occur<br />

as the door slab adjusts to local humidity and temperature<br />

conditions. This deferral will not be counted against the<br />

warranty period.


WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER<br />

JELD-WEN manufactures and sells both individual door slabs and complete door systems. This warranty does not cover parts or<br />

components (e.g., locksets, handles, etc.) not sold by JELD-WEN to the original owner. See your distributor or dealer regarding the<br />

warranty on the entire door system and/or these other components.<br />

We are not liable <strong>for</strong>:<br />

• Normal wear and tear; natural variations in the color or<br />

texture of wood.<br />

• Problems due to misuse, abuse, failure to follow the<br />

care and maintenance instructions; or as a result of any<br />

cause beyond our reasonable control (e.g. fire, flood,<br />

earthquake, other acts of nature, and acts of third parties<br />

outside of our control).<br />

• Problems related to: improper finishing of all surfaces<br />

(front and back) and edges (top, bottom, and sides) of the<br />

door slab; variation or unsatisfactory results in sheen or<br />

texture resulting from the field application of paint or any<br />

other finishing material.<br />

• Warp which does not exceed 1/4" in the plane of the door<br />

slab itself; any warp <strong>for</strong> a door panel 3'0" wide by 8'0"<br />

(914 mm by 2450 mm) high.<br />

• Bow or misalignment in the frame or jamb in which the<br />

door slab is hung.<br />

• Problems due to improper assembly or installation (not in<br />

con<strong>for</strong>mance with our instructions).<br />

Structural integrity issues or other problems caused by<br />

improper fitting of the hardware or improper sizing of the<br />

slab, or other door entry system assembly problems.<br />

Damage or poor product per<strong>for</strong>mance resulting from<br />

installation into a condition that exceeds product design<br />

standards and/or certified per<strong>for</strong>mance specifications and/<br />

or does not comply with applicable building codes.<br />

Hardware or inserts that are not provided by us, such as<br />

locksets, door handles, strikes, etc.<br />

Cost <strong>for</strong> labor, removal or disposal of defective product(s),<br />

installation or finishing of the replacement door or component.<br />

Incidental or consequential damage. Some states/provinces<br />

do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or<br />

consequential damages, so this may not apply to you.<br />

Important Legal In<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

This Warranty sets <strong>for</strong>th our maximum liability <strong>for</strong> our products. We shall not be liable <strong>for</strong> special, indirect,<br />

consequential, or incidental damages. Your sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all losses or damages<br />

resulting from any cause whatsoever shall be as specified above. We make no other warranty or guarantee, either<br />

express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness <strong>for</strong> a particular purpose to the<br />

original purchaser or to any subsequent user of the product, except as expressly contained herein. In the event state<br />

or provincial law precludes exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, the duration of any such warranties shall<br />

be no longer than, and the time and manner of presenting any claim thereon shall be the same as, that provided in<br />

the express warranty stated herein.<br />

owner of the structure where the product is initially installed) and is not transferable. The original purchaser of this product<br />

acknowledges that they have read this warranty, understand it and are bound by its terms and agrees to provide this warranty to<br />

the distributor or person making the warranty claim in the same<br />

condition of fitting or finishing as the product originally sold to<br />

the distributor. Because manufacturing materials and techniques<br />

• Normal wear and tear, including normal wear and tear<br />

of weatherstrip; and natural weathering of surfaces<br />

or variations in the color or texture of wood or finish;<br />

MAINTENANCE<br />

For warranty coverage to remain in effect the<br />

following must be followed:<br />

1. Adequate finish on all door surfaces as detailed<br />

below.<br />

2. Proper adjustment of hardware attached or<br />

fitted into the doors (including the hardware<br />

fasteners) as detailed below.<br />

3. Proper storage and handling as detailed below.<br />

STORAGE AND HANDLING <strong>INSTRUCTIONS</strong><br />

1. <strong>Door</strong>s to be stacked on 38 mm. (11 /2") blocking<br />

with a cover sheet top and bottom to protect<br />

the face of the doors from sunlight, dirt, water,<br />

and abuse, but allow <strong>for</strong> air circulation under<br />

and around the stack. 3 blocks to be used <strong>for</strong><br />

doors up to 2134 mm. (7'0") and 4 blocks <strong>for</strong><br />

larger doors.<br />

2. <strong>Door</strong>s shall not be subjected to extremes of<br />

heat and /or humidity, and the storage building<br />

must have these conditions controlled.<br />

Relative humidity should not be less than 25%,<br />

or more than 55%.<br />

3. Do not store doors in buildings with excessive<br />

moisture from newly poured concrete or new<br />

plaster/drywall.<br />

4. Certain species of doors are very susceptible to<br />

discoloration from direct sunlight or some<br />

<strong>for</strong>ms of artificial light, there<strong>for</strong>e all doors<br />

should be protected from light sources with<br />

coversheets and opaque wrapping material.<br />

5. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning<br />

systems must be operational and balanced<br />

be<strong>for</strong>e door installation.<br />

6. <strong>Door</strong>s must be sealed on the top and bottom<br />

rails within 5 days of storage on the jobsite.<br />

7. <strong>Door</strong>s shall be handled with clean hands or<br />

while wearing clean gloves.<br />

8. <strong>Door</strong>s shall not be dragged across each other or<br />

across other surfaces.<br />

FINISHING <strong>INSTRUCTIONS</strong><br />

1. <strong>Wood</strong> is hygroscopic and dimensionally<br />

influenced by changes in moisture content<br />

caused by changes within its surrounding<br />

environment. To assure uni<strong>for</strong>m moisture<br />

exposure and dimensional control all surfaces<br />

must be finished equally.<br />

2. <strong>Door</strong>s are not ready <strong>for</strong> finishing when initially<br />

received. Be<strong>for</strong>e finishing, remove all handling<br />

marks, raised grain, scuffs, burnishes and other<br />

undesirable blemishes by block sanding all<br />

surfaces in a horizontal position with a 120,<br />

150, 180 grit sandpaper. To avoid cross grain<br />

scratches, sand with the grain.<br />

3. Certain species of wood, particularly oak,<br />

contain chemicals which react unfavorably<br />

with <strong>for</strong>eign materials in the finishing system.<br />

Eliminate the use of steel wool on bare wood,<br />

rusty containers or any other contaminate in<br />

the finishing system.<br />

4. A thinned coat of sanding sealer should be<br />

applied prior to staining to promote a uni<strong>for</strong>m<br />

appearance and to avoid sharp contrasts in<br />

color or a blotchy appearance.<br />

5. All exposed wood surfaces must be sealed<br />

including the top and bottom rails with a<br />

minimum of 2 coats of a sealer.<br />

6. Dark colored finishes should be avoided on all<br />

surfaces if the door is exposed to direct<br />

sunlight, in order to reduce the chance of<br />

warping or face checking.<br />

7. In addition to the above, Birch doors must be<br />

given special care in field finishing procedures.<br />

Water based stains, sealers, and primers may<br />

cause veneer seem separation or cracking and<br />

checking of the veneer. For staining, only oil<br />

base stains may be used. Birch must be filled<br />

and/or sealed be<strong>for</strong>e the stain is applied. If<br />

painting Birch doors, they first must be<br />

thoroughly sealed with a quality oil base wood<br />

primer and sealer. Allow adequate drying time<br />

between coats, 24 hours or longer. Prior to<br />

painting, inspect <strong>for</strong> any visible splits or open<br />

seams which must then be filled with wood<br />

filler and sanded smooth. You may then<br />

proceed with a lacquer or oil base finish. This<br />

method must be followed or the warranty is<br />

void.<br />

8. Use a flat or satin finish. High-gloss finishes are<br />

not recommended.<br />

<strong>INSTALLATION</strong> <strong>INSTRUCTIONS</strong><br />

1. <strong>Door</strong>s shall be allowed to become acclimatized<br />

to finished building heat and humidity be<strong>for</strong>e<br />

hanging.<br />

2. Do not impair the utility or the structural<br />

strength of the door in the fitting, the<br />

application of hardware, or cutting and<br />

altering the door <strong>for</strong> lights, louvers, or other<br />

special details. Approximately 24 mm. ( 3 /32")<br />

clearance on each side and 24 mm. ( 3 /32") to<br />

( 1 /8") clearance at the top shall be allowed.<br />

3. Pilot holes must be drilled <strong>for</strong> all screws that<br />

act as hardware attachments. All hardware<br />

installations must follow the listing<br />

specifications as per the directions <strong>for</strong> an<br />

approved fire rated opening.<br />

4. Three hinges shall be installed <strong>for</strong> doors 2134<br />

mm. (7'0") in height or less. Allow one<br />

additional hinge <strong>for</strong> each additional 305 mm.<br />

(12") of door height or portion thereof.<br />

5. Labels on fire doors shall not be removed.<br />

Doing so voids the label.<br />

TOLERANCES<br />

1. Size tolerance: thickness = 1.6 mm. ( 1 /16")<br />

length = 1.6 mm. ( 1 /16") width = 1.6 mm.<br />

( 1 /16").<br />

2. A squareness tolerance of not more than 3 mm.<br />

( 1 /8") difference shall be allowed between the<br />

diagonal measurements, taken across the face<br />

of the door.<br />

3. <strong>Door</strong>s which develop warp or twist in excess of<br />

6 mm. ( 1 /4") after hanging will be deemed to be<br />

defective unless there is evidence to indicate<br />

that the door has been improperly stored,<br />

finished, or hung, or has been subject to<br />

tension (e.g. by wedging). Warp is measured by<br />

placing a straightedge on the concave face and<br />

determining the maximum distance from<br />

straight edge to door face.<br />

4. Stile, rail, and core show- through<br />

(telegraphing) will not be considered a defect<br />

unless the face of the door varies from a true<br />

plane in excess of 1 /100" in any three-inch span.<br />

Note: Action on any claim <strong>for</strong> warp or<br />

telegraphing defects may be deferred at the option<br />

of the manufacturer <strong>for</strong> a period not to exceed one<br />

year from date of claim to permit conditioning of<br />

the doors to temperature and humidity.<br />
