<strong>New</strong> <strong>Products</strong><br />

West End doors are available in the eco-friendly Safe ‘N Sound® Emerald option. With a core made of rapidly<br />

renewable wheat straw, Safe ‘N Sound Emerald doors have no added urea formaldehyde and are FSC (Forestry<br />

Stewardship Council) certified.<br />

Additionally, these doors significantly reduce sound transmission and are lighter than conventional particleboard core<br />

allowing for easier handling and installation as well as less hardware and jamb wear.<br />

Fir Grain Belleville Fiberglass Entry Doors<br />

Trend research indicates that fir is one of the most preferred wood grain patterns because of its ease<br />

of finishing and painting. <strong>New</strong> for 2012, <strong>Masonite</strong> offers its six panel, Hollister and Craftsman<br />

fiberglass entry doors in fir grain texture, in addition to mahogany and oak.<br />

Engineered to last a lifetime, <strong>Masonite</strong> fiberglass entry doors provide maximum security while<br />

resisting splitting, cracking and warping. In addition, they are made with a polyurethane foam core to<br />

increase energy savings. A high-performance composite material is also used on the bottom rails,<br />

providing excellent corrosion- and rot-resistance.<br />

AvantGuard Finish Technology Now Available in Cherry<br />

<strong>Masonite</strong>’s AvantGuard finish technology allows homeowners to replicate the look of exclusive<br />

hardwood without the constant maintenance and hefty price tag.<br />

This innovative digital printing process creates the appearance of authentic wood, like Spanish cedar,<br />

black walnut and – new for 2012 – cherry on low-maintenance fiberglass doors. The technique is<br />

much more sustainable than manufacturing classic wood doors, drastically reducing the amount of<br />

trees harvested. AvantGuard is true wood technology, meaning it simulates the beauty of real wood<br />

with the ultimate durability of a uniquely engineered fiberglass door.<br />

All AvantGuard doors are finished with an automotive-type coating, providing homeowners five years of maintenance-<br />

free use.
