What this product does

  1. 1
    Polymer film face

    PP or PET foil bonded to an HDF, MDF or plywood core

  2. 2
    No sanding step

    The film is the finished face, so it takes paint or laminate directly

  3. 3
    Tolerance holds the set

    A ± 0.2 mm skin finishes inside the door set instead of lipping at the edge

  4. 4
    PP versus PET

    PP for economy and matte faces, PET where the door gets knocked

Description

A door skin in PP or PET foil, 3–6 mm thick to a ± 0.2 mm tolerance, supplied at 1850–2150 mm and cut to the door blank. The foil is a polymer film bonded to an HDF, MDF or plywood core, and it is the finished face rather than a base for one.

That is the reason it is used on volume joinery: there is no sanding step and no priming, so a door goes from skin to finished face in one operation, and the face is consistent across a run in a way a painted door is not. PP is the economical film and handles a matte or textured surface well; PET takes a harder, more scuff-resistant face and is the better choice where doors get knocked. The tolerance is not a detail. Because the skin is bonded to a core and the pair has to finish at the door thickness, a ± 0.2 mm skin keeps the assembly inside the door set, while a loose tolerance shows as a lip at the edge that no amount of finishing removes. These are interior skins, and a fire door needs the fire-rated version, because the skin has to match the rating of its core.

Confirm the door thickness, the edge detail and the traffic the door will see when you order, since those decide both the film and the tolerance you need.

Frequently asked

What is the minimum order?

1 × 20ft container, mixed across products where the mix suits the project. A sample box can be arranged before the first container.

Can I see a sample before ordering?

Yes. Send the product and the size you are specifying, and we will confirm the sample and the lead time for it.

PP or PET — which one?

PP is the more economical film and handles a matte or textured face well. PET takes a harder, more scuff-resistant surface and is the better choice on a door that gets knocked. Tell us the use and we will point at one rather than quote both without a view.

Does the skin need sanding or priming?

No. The foil is the finished face, so it takes paint or laminate directly and there is no sanding step. That is the reason it is used on volume joinery.

Why does thickness tolerance matter on a skin?

Because the skin is bonded to a core and the pair has to finish at the door thickness. A ± 0.2 mm tolerance keeps the assembly within the door set, whereas a loose tolerance shows as a lip at the edge.

Can it be used on a fire door?

Not this skin. A fire door needs the fire-rated skin, because the skin has to match the rating of the core it is bonded to.
