• All timbers are adversely affected by the environment in which they are installed, particularly in a moist climate and in high levels of humidity. Timber is hygroscopic which means the material will take up or let out moisture depending on the environment it is placed in. We there for recommend that timber doors are only installed in areas that have been suitably acclimatised so that the timber is allowed to find its EMC ( Equilibrium moisture content). Most people are aware that wood changes colour when exposed to light, the rate of change being dependent upon the species and the intensity of the exposure.
