Lynden Door will have three reconstituted veneer doors on display at the HD Expo in Las Vegas. The doors feature unique Echo Wood brand engineered or "reconstituted" veneers supplied by Hardwood Specialty Products. (Image left: reconstituted wenge)


See these doors at Booth 7753, May 14-15.

Reconstituted veneer is made by slicing veneers from abundant species (or plantation-grown timber) and then dying - with water-based, non-toxic colorants - and re-stacking, re-gluing and finally re-slicing the flitch on edge. This ingenious process results in an engineered veneer that, in its simplest form, has the appearance of a vertical grain veneer. Specialty looks can be acheived to simulate specific species, flat grains and figured veneer.


"Recon" veneer wins environmental points for substituting abundant species for rare or endangered trees. Designers love recon for its uniformity.

10 distinct "species" are stocked and these veneers can be sketched (laid up with opposing grain directions) or mixed on one door. Virtually all of the Lynden Door options can be applied to recon-faced doors, including custom machining, no-VOC clear coat finishing (recon veneer cannot be stained), various cores; including fire-rated and the full complement of GreenDor environmental/health-related attributes.

Ask Rich Gorrill and his team at booth 7753 about the Echo Wood line and see the material in action on our full-sized door slabs, on display.

The Rediscovery Collection

Doors in a Modernist State of Mind

Let's face it, there are many times when a beautiful set of custom doors is designed for a project, at a significant cost, but they don't make it to the grand opening. Too often, as the project nears completion and budgets constrict, these masterpieces are lost to cost-cutting. More's the pity, the end result is often a complete reversal; the least expensive doors are substituted and the project suffers a profound aesthetic blow.

In an effort to prevent this, Lynden Door has developed a striking new offering - the Rediscovery Collection. To make the doors appealing but to keep our offering (and attendant costs) manageable, we've based our designs on the best advice we could gather from a select group of architects, designers and design cognizati. Input from this formal advisory council was matched with market research and the advice of our many door re-sellers - professionals working in the construction industry in North America and around the world. Then we worked diligently with our vendors and in-house production teams to scrupulously drive cost OUT of the line.

The result is a concise, urbane and definitive contemporary door collection with a reasonable price point and therefore, much greater accessibility.

At the same time, these great doors are available in a fully bespoke version - just ask. Also, GreenDor attributes - like no-added urea formaldehyde and agricultural waste fiber cores - are optionally available.
