Poplar Frame/Poplar Panel
Poplar wood is generally straight grained with a fine, even texture. Creamy-white
to pale brown heartwood and sapwood. Poplar varies from white to a light green with
occasional black and purple streaks. Poplar is a relatively hard hardwood with good
durability. This door style has a solid poplar wood center panel.
MDF is medium-density fiberboard. It has become a very popular composite material
in recent years. MDF is uniform, very dense, smooth and free of knots and grain
patterns, and makes an excellent substitute for solid wood. MDF is used for baseboards,
crown mouldings, interior doors, and cabinet doors.

Alder wood is straight grained and even textured. Pale yellow to reddish brown with
indistinct boundary between heartwood and softwood. Alder is an excellent choice
for staining, as it will take a clear coat, or a light to dark stain very well. Has
also been used quite commonly to mimic the look of cherry if stained and finished
properly. Since alder is a straight smooth grain wood it also takes painted finishes
very well.
Ash wood is generally straight grained with a coarse texture. Pale-brown heartwood
and almost white sapwood. Ash wood is a very hard and wear resistant hardwood. Ash
does take stain well, but do to its rather coarse grain patterns it is not recommended
for painting as this coarse grain will show under some painted finishes.
Beech wood is a very hard hardwood with excellent wear resistance with straight or
sometimes interlocked grain with a fine, even texture. Dark to light reddish brown
heartwood and very thin, nearly white sapwood. Beech wood stains well, but is seen
often with a glazed finish, it is also another ideal paint grade material due to
its hardness and wear resistance and smooth grain, it takes paint beautifully.
Clear Pine wood is straight grained, with a medium coarse texture. Clear Pine is
free from any knots. Pine does stain well but it is recommended that a pre-stain
conditioner or gel stain is used.
Knotty or sometimes called Rustic Alder wood is straight grained with some streaking
and knots that create a rustic appearance. Pale yellow to reddish brown with indistinct
boundary between heartwood and softwood. Knotty Alder is an excellent choice for
staining, as it will take a clear coat, or a light to dark stain very well.
Red Oak wood is a straight grained with a coarse texture and prominent rays. Light
reddish tan heartwood and narrow, almost white sapwood. Red Oak is a very hard and
durable hardwood with great wear resistance. Oak accepts stain very well, from light
to dark. Due to its rather coarse grain patterns Red Oak is not recommended for painting
as this coarse grain will show under some painted finishes.
Red Oak Rift Sawn Red Oak Quarter Sawn wood is a straight grained with a coarse texture
Light reddish tan heartwood and narrow, almost white sapwood. Red Oak is a very hard
and durable hardwood with great wear resistance. Oak accepts stain very well, from
light to dark. Rift Sawn Red Oak is typically milled at a slight angle (30 to 60
degrees) from vertical producing a very straight grain pattern with almost no “ray-fleck”
as would be found on quarter sawn material.
Sapele wood is interlocked, sometimes wavy grain producing a distinctive figure on
quartered surfaces. Medium texture, high luster, pale yellow sapwood and light red
to dark reddish brown heartwood. Sapele can be stained although it is usually clear
finished since it has a dark reddish brown appearance.
White Oak is an outstanding domestic hardwood that is a very strong wood that displays
a very straight and consistent grain. Its unique cellular structure makes the wood
highly water resistant, and it is therefore used in great quantities for exterior
applications from trim and general construction to furniture and garden structures.

Red Oak Quarter Sawn wood is a straight grained with a coarse texture Light reddish
tan heartwood and narrow, almost white sapwood. Red Oak is a very hard and durable
hardwood with great wear resistance. Oak accepts stain very well, from light to dark.
Quarter Sawn material is milled so that the growth rings of the lumber are near vertical
(60 to 90 degrees), the cuts made cuts across the wood's ray cells yielding "ray-flecked"
grain.
Knotty or sometimes called Rustic Pine wood is straight grained, sometimes with a
bird's eye pattern, and with a medium coarse texture. Typically has prominent dark
resin duct lines and numerous small but sound knots. Light reddish brown heartwood
and wide, nearly white to pale yellow sapwood. Knotty Pine does stain well but it
is recommended that a pre-stain conditioner or gel stain is used.
Vertical Grain Fir, known for its excellent dimensional stability, and its close
grain. Vertical grain is created when lumber is sawn across the annual growth rings,
resulting in a straight, vertical grain pattern and smooth surface. The growth rings
reflect the growth rate of the individual tree, so the width and spacing of the grain
pattern will be slightly different on each piece of wood.
The characteristic that has made White Oak famous is the presence of striking medullary
rays that appear when the wood is quartersawn. Quartersawn White Oak is a highly
stable material. In the early 1900s White Oak was the standard species for the arts
and crafts movement in furniture building.
Maple is a very hard hardwood, with excellent wear resistance. Maple wood has a straight,
close grain with a fine, uniform texture. Nearly white sapwood, sometimes with a
reddish tinge and light tannish heartwood. Maple is very hard and can be stained,
although it is seen with a glazed finish. Maple paints excellently and is a great
choice for a durable material for painting.
Lyptus derives from fast-growing eucalyptus trees cultivated on well-managed plantations
and harvested to sustainable certification standards, making it an environmentally-responsible
hardwood.
Hickory is a very hard hardwood with tight, generally straight grain with a coarse
texture. Pale to reddish brown heartwood and whitish sapwood. Hickory can be stained
and finishes well, but do to its rather coarse grain patterns it is not recommended
for painting as this coarse grain will show under some painted finishes.
Cherry wood is a relatively hard hardwood with great wear resistance. Cherry is generally
straight grained with a fairly uniform texture and a rich luster. Light to dark reddish
brown heartwood and narrow, nearly white sapwood. Cherry takes stain very well and
is regarded as one of the most highly prized cabinet woods in North America.
White Birch is a relatively hard hardwood with good wear resistance. White Birch
is Straight grained with a fine even texture. White Birch has a similar color tone
to that of maple. Birch is an all around good wood, stains relatively well also commonly
seen with a glaze finish or more popularly clear finishes. Because Birch has a smooth
grain it also is an excellent choice for painted finishes where a hard durable material
is needed.
Red Birch is a relatively hard hardwood with good wear resistance. Red Birch is Straight
grained with a fine even texture. Red Birch has quite a reddish appearance similar
to that of cherry. Birch is an all around good wood, stains relatively well also
commonly seen with a glaze finish or more popularly clear finishes. Because Birch
has a smooth grain it also is an excellent choice for painted finishes where a hard
durable material is needed.
Walnut wood is generally straight grained with a moderately coarse, uniform texture.
Rich dark brown heartwood and nearly white sapwood. Prized in North America for high-end
cabinetry and furniture. Walnut stains very well. Walnut can be painted but it does
have a rather coarse grain pattern that would not be recommended for painted surfaces
that require a smooth finish. Due to its cost and its natural beauty it is rarely
painted.
Birch is a relatively hard hardwood with good wear resistance. Birch is Straight
grained with a fine even texture. Reddish brown heartwood and light-yellow sapwood.
Birch is an all around good wood, stains relatively well also commonly seen with
a glaze finish or more popularly clear finishes. Because Birch has a smooth grain
it also is an excellent choice for painted finishes where a hard durable material
is needed.
