Definitions

  • Wood is a common material used to construct doors and other architectural building elements.
  • the cost of solid timber wood has increased dramatically as its supply shrinks due to the gradual depletion of old-growth and virgin forests. It is particularly expensive to manufacture doors from such material because typically less than half of harvested timber wood is converted to natural solid wood lumber, the remainder being discarded as scrap. Accordingly, because of both the cost of high-grade timber wood as well as a heightened emphasis on conserving natural resources, wood-based alternatives to natural solid wood lumber have been developed that make more efficient use of harvested wood and reduce the amount of wood discarded as scrap.
  • Plywood, particle board and oriented strand board are examples of wood-based composite alternatives to natural solid wood lumber that have replaced natural solid wood lumber in many structural applications in the last seventy-five years. These wood-based composites not only use the available supply of timber wood more efficiently, but they can also be formed from lower-grade wood species, and even from wood wastes.
  • Wood composite materials are especially suitable for manufacturing doors, because their strength and insulation are comparable or superior to natural solid wood lumber.
  • these composite materials consist of small particles (particle board), wood strands (OSB), flat pieces of low-grade wood species or some similar such material, products made from them do not have an attractive, grained appearance, but rather tend to have unsatisfactory aesthetic finishes. This may make them unsuitable for use in doors, because generally it is preferred that doors have a pleasing aesthetic finish.
  • wood composite materials can be used to form the internal "core" of the door, and then top and bottom "doorskins” having a wood or wood grain appearance are applied to the planar surfaces of the door to give it a satisfactory aesthetic finish.
  • the core is "framed” with wood strips.
  • the wood strips may be placed adjacent to the top and bottom horizontal edge surfaces of the door (in which case they are known as “rails") or they may be placed adjacent to the vertical edges of the door (and are then known as “stiles").
  • the rails and stiles also enhance the structural integrity of the door and help resist warpage.
  • the stiles are also particularly important because metal fixtures (such as the hinges that hold the door to the door frame, as well as the door lock) are installed in the door stile and held therein.
  • each door stile would be manufactured from a single piece of solid hardwood, which would provide not only an attractive finish, but provide excellent strength for holding the lock and hinge fixtures.
  • one-piece solid hardwood stiles are prohibitively expensive for use in most all doors.
  • laminated wood materials have been proposed as an alternative to one-piece solid hardwood stiles. These laminated wood composite styles are made by laminating an outer hardwood strip to a "stile backer" made from a wood composite material. The outer hardwood strip provides a natural wood appearance, while the wood composite material provides screw holding strength, so that metal fixtures may be attached to the stile.
  • one commonly available laminated wood material is the TIMBERSTRANDTM product from Trus Joist MacMillan, Inc., Boise, Id.
  • the layers are arranged perpendicular to the lower and upper surfaces of the solid hardwood component attached to wood composite material.
  • the layers of the wood composite material are oriented perpendicular to the surface of the door stile (and thus parallel to the direction that the screw enters the wood composite material). Accordingly when a screw is inserted into the wood composite layers it has the effect of pushing the layers apart from each other, which
  • the invention provides a laminated wood piece comprising a solid hardwood component having an upper surface and a lower surface that are substantially parallel to each other and a wood composite component having layers oriented substantially parallel to the lower surface of the solid hardwood component, the ratio of a thickness of the solid hardwood component to a thickness of the wood composite component being from about 1:1 to about 1:10.
  • the invention also provides a door including a frame, the frame including at least one stile member, the at least one stile member comprising a solid hardwood component having an upper surface and a lower surface that are substantially parallel to each other; and a wood composite component having layers oriented substantially parallel to the lower surface of the solid hardwood component.
  • the ratio of a thickness of the solid hardwood component to a thickness of the wood composite component is from 1 :1 to 1 :10, preferably from 1 :1 to 1:5.
  • the invention also provides a method for manufacturing a door comprising the steps of providing a core, then providing a door stile comprising a solid hardwood component having an upper surface and a lower surface that are substantially parallel to each other, and a wood composite component having layers oriented substantially parallel to the lower surface of the solid hardwood component.
  • This method further comprises the step of securing the door stile to the core, with the wood composite component contacting the core, and the solid hardwood component being on an outer side of the wood composite component.
  • the invention also provides a method for manufacturing a door stile comprising the steps of preparing a wood composite panel having several layers and a thickness of about 0.6 cm to about 6 cm, then cutting the wood composite panel into a plurality of
  • each wood composite section having a width of about 3 cm to about 6 cm.
  • a solid hardwood component is provided having an upper surface and a lower surface that are substantially parallel to each other and one of the plurality of wood composite sections is attached to the lower surface of the solid hardwood component, wherein the wood composite section has several layers oriented substantially parallel to the lower surface of the solid hardwood component.
