CRATING PROCESS
The Crating department builds fork-liftable custom sized crates on pallets from scratch for each and every order. We completely encapsulate the load in 1/2" OSB plywood and use Styrofoam inside the crate to protect the wood doors while in transit.
CRATING TYPES: Please talk to a sales rep about how your door will be shipped. We can ship "KD" or "knocked down" where your jambs, threshold, doors, sidelights, and trim pack are all loose in the crate, assembly will be required. Ideal for unfinished (needing to be stained on site-doors). For easier installation, we'd recommend shipping your door completedly assembled (exteriors only).
ABOUT CANADA SHIPMENTS
We include Broker fees, GST, PST or HST with all written Quotes for Shipments to Canadian address'. Easy and hassle free delivery of doors direct to your home or job-site.

TRACKING
Once shipped from our Indiana warehouse you will be notified by email or fax with your Tracking number (PRO #) and can track your shipment online.

Please keep in mind; it is the sole responsibility of the Customer to arrange the unloading of the door order unless special services have been arranged with the Shipping company.
Many Crates are too big for the Lift gate. Specialty services may be available**, (example: Flatbed service). Freight orders shipped by semi trailer.

Quick Ship Doors Wood Doors are fully factory assembled, pulled from stock, carefully inspected for quality, crated and protected with plywood on all sides.

Clearance Doors Typically prehung doors ready to crate, deliver or pick-up (some models may have selectable options which may add to the shipping time). No customizations are available for clearance doors as most are "as is" (unless noted). Pre-finishing is always available for un-finished models.

Build Door Systems N-Line, AC-Line, SW-Line, PFC Doors, Tiffany Line, Olympus Line and Carved Doors are all semi-customized door systems, pre-hung and assembled from scratch requiring that extra time needed for completion.

Interior Doors Prehung when order is processed. Interior Doors are shipped knocked down on freight shipments to save load space and for protection.
Local deliveries of interior doors are pre-hung in the jamb with shipping board holding the jamb bottoms.
