Wood Color Variations among Same Species:

Although maple� birch and ash show the greatest contrasts in color and grain� all wood species can vary from flitch (half�log) to flitch� Environmental factors such as climate and soil content can make each veneer species exhibit a range of colors and textures�

Permaguard™ Factory Finish Samples:

All Permaguard™ factory finish samples illustrate basic color� grain fill and gloss level of our catalyzed polyurethane finish system� Wood is a product of nature and will vary in color and grain from tree to tree� or even within the same tree� Some doors will be lighter or darker even though they all receive the same color stain� but it’s precisely those natural variations in density and texture that make wood doors so popular� For more information on our VT Color Choices� please refer to our Permaguard™ Factory Finish brochure�

All samples submitted for approval use A grade veneers� book & running match� unless otherwise specified�

What i s a Premium Grade Veneer?

VT Industries has always maintained the highest quality standards as set forth by the architectural flush wood door industry – meeting or exceeding industry quality standards� The primary quality standards are �) the Window & Door Manufacturers Association (WDMA) I�S� ��A; �) the

American Woodwork Institute (AWI) Quality Standards� sections ���� and � ��; and �) the

Woodwork Institute Manual of Millwork� AWI and Woodwork Institute quality standards are very similar� having changed their standards for premium grade doors in recent years� which has caused some discrepancies with WDMA� the benchmark by which most flush door manufacturers set their standards�

AWI and the Woodwork Institute require AA grade veneers – book� slip or random match – center balance matched between veneer components for use on their premium grade doors� Nominal minimum width of face components for premium grade veneers is " for plain sliced veneer� �" for quarter sliced veneers� and " for rotary cut veneers� AWI defines premium grade veneers as “The grade specified when the highest degree of control over the quality of workmanship� materials� installation and execution of the design intent is required� Usually reserved for special projects� or feature areas within a project�”

WDMA's standard for premium grade doors requires A grade veneers – book match� and center� balanced or running match between veneer components� Nominal minimum width of face components for premium grade veneers is " for plain sliced veneers� �" for quarter sliced veneers� and " for rotary cut veneers�

The use of AA grade veneers is not only more costly� it can dramatically increase lead times and wastes large amounts of veneer to accumulate the components required to meet the AA grade requirements� VT will provide AA grade veneers when specified but encourages the use of A grade veneers for environmental responsibility� VT also uses water�based stains and solvent�free sealers� which are much safer for the environment and the individuals who work with them�

Our catalyzed polyurethane factory finish is UV�cured to eliminate harmful volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions�

Decorat ive Veneer Cutt ing Methods

PLAIN SLICED OR FLAT CUT VENEER:

The half log� or flitch� is mounted with the heart side against the guide plate of the slicer� Cuts are made parallel to a line through the center of the log producing a distinct figure� By keeping the veneer leaves in the same order in which they are cut� the leaves can be reassembled with only a very gradual grain figure transition from one panel to another�

QUARTER SLICED VENEER:

A quarter log� or flitch� is mounted so that the slicer cuts the log at a � o angle to the axis lines of the log� creating a striped or straight grain effect� A flake effect is produced in oak veneers using this method�

RIFT CUT VENEER:

This method is generally restricted to Red & White Oak�

A quarter log is mounted off center and cut slightly across the medullary rays common to oak� resulting in a straight grain without the flake effect of quarter sliced oak�

ROTARY CUT VENEER:

A method of cutting in which the log is placed on a large lathe

& turned against a fixed blade� so that a continuous cut is made round and round the log� more or less parallel at all times to the growth ring� The result is a wild� varied� grain effect�

Since the grain pattern is non�repetitive� it cannot be used for sequence matching�

Knife

Book

Leaf

Half Log Flitch

Quarter Sliced (slicer)

Flake pattern is produced when slicing through medullary rays in some species, principally oak.

Knife

Quarter Log Flitch

Rift Cut (lathe)

Angle of cut is 15 degrees to the radial to minimize the ray (flake effect) in oak. Comb grain is the portion which has VERY tight & straight grain.

Quarter Log Flitch Knife

Narrow Striped Pattern

Rotary (lathe)

Wide Sheets. Broad pattern. Difficult matching.

Used primarily on Economy or Commercial grades.

Very broad pattern, often wild

Knife

Plain Sliced or Flat Cut (slicer)

Leaf width depends on log size & placement in flitch.

Half Round is a somewhat similar pattern achieved by turning a half log flitch on a lathe.

Cathedral Pattern

Narrow Striped Pattern

Book Match Slip Match

Once the decorative veneer cutting method is specified� the type of match at the joint line must be specified� The way in which the individ� ual cuts are placed next to each other during the fabrication of the veneer face affects the appearance of the doors�

• Book Match is the most commonly used match in the industry� Every other piece of veneer is turned over so adjacent pieces are opened like two adjacent pages in a book�

The veneer joints match and create a mirrored image pattern at the join line� yielding a maximum continuity of grain� Book matching is used with plain sliced� and less often with other cuts of veneer�

• Barber pole effect in book match

Because the “tight” and “loose” faces alternate in adjacent pieces of veneer� they may accept stain differently� and this may result in a noticeable color variation� often called

“barber pole”� These variations are not a manufacturing defect�

• Slip Match is the adjoining of veneer components in sequence without turning over every other piece� The grain figure repeats� but joints won’t show mirrored effect� Slip matching is often used in quarter cut� rift cut� and comb grain veneers to minimize the barber pole effect�

• Random Match

A random selection of veneer components from one or more logs� This produces a

“board�like” appearance�

Random Match

Matching Veneer Components

Remainders

Book Match � Running Match Balance Match

The type of “assembly match” must be specified to obtain a desired appearance� Any sequence matching from opening to opening must be specified�

• Running Match

Non�symmetrical appearance on any single door face� Veneer pieces of unequal width are common� Each face is assembled from as many veneer pieces as necessary�

• Balance Match

Symmetrical appearance� Each face is assembled from an even or odd number of pieces of uniform width before trimming� This match reduces veneer yield�

• Center Balance Match

Symmetrical appearance� Each face is assembled from an even number of veneer pieces of uniform width before trimming� Thus� there is a veneer joint in the center of the panel�

This match further reduces veneer yield�
