DOOR AND PANEL WORK. No. 296,035. Patefitedkpr. 1, 1884.
WWI/Ml UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM N. MILLER, or OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA.
DOOR AND PANEL WORK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 296,035, dated April 1, 1884.
Application filed December 26, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM N MILLER, of the city of Oakland, county of Alameda, and State of California, have invented an Improvement in Door and Panel Work; and I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description'thereof.
My invention relates to certain improvements in the manufacture of door and panel work; and it consists in the combination of devices herein explained and claimed, all of which will be more fully explained by referonce to the accompanying drawings,in which the edges and angles are easily bruised or bro- Figure l is a front view of a door, showing the manner of uniting the rails and stiles by dowel-pins. Fig. 2 is an edge view of a stile, showing the groove or mortise to receive a short tenon on the rail, and a section of a dowel-pin. Fig; 3 is a horizontal section taken through the rail and stile on the line of the p111.
It has hitherto been impossibleto construct good, substantial doors from soft and brittle woods-such as Oregon cedar, California redwood,&c.on account of the difficulty in making good, substantial joints, and also because ken. In my invention thestiles and rails are united by hard-Wood dowel-pins to form a joint. I
A A are the stiles, and B Bare the rails, of a door which I have here shown to illustrate my invention. These stiles and rails are made from soft, cheap wood, of any suitable or depins Inay be employed in each rail as the width renders necessary, and other pins, E, may be driven into the sides of the rails, and the center bar of the door, as shown. In order to prevent the warping of the rails, a short tenon is made upon the end of each, and a corre sponding groove or mortise in the stile into together. The advantage of this construction is that any shrinkage will take place from the outside instead of drawing away from the inside and leaving cracks or openings, as is the case when tenons pass entirely through the stile and are wedged and glued from the outside. The rough appearance of the end grain of these tenons upon the edges of the doors is also avoided.
As this construction is designed for doors or panel-work in which soft wood is used, it is necessary to protect the edges of the door from bruises or injury to which they are exposed from their position. This I do by means of narrow strips F of hard wood, which may be tongued and grooved, and glued or otherwise secured in place upon the edge of the door. These strips should be made of a wood similar to that which is to be represented by the graining, so as to present the same appearance when the work is completed. As doors often get out of shape or swell so as to stick,
itis always possible to dress these hard-wood I edges down without Inarring their appearance,
as would be the case if the edge were of soft wood, the door being easily fitted at any time without having to be repainted, as the edgestrips would be of the real wood of which the graining was the imitation.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a door, the rails B, in combination with the stiles united by dowelpins, said pins having longitudinal grooves or channels made in one side, substantially as herein described.
2. A door composed of stiles and rails united by dowel-pins and tongues andgrooves, as shown, in combination with exterior edge strips of harder wood, substantially as herein described.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
WILLIAM N. MILLER. Witnesses:
