Our Signature Door Refinishing Process
At AFR, we take immense pride in our refined and meticulous door refinishing process. Our signature approach includes:
  1. Thorough Assessment and Pickup: We bring your door to our shop for a comprehensive inspection and to plan the restoration process effectively.
  2. Gentle Stripping: Delicately stripping away the old finish by hand, we preserve the wood's integrity while ensuring a lasting finish.
  3. Enhancing the Wood Grain: After stripping, we lightly sand the door and apply a hand-wiped stain to enhance the natural beauty of the wood grain.
  4. Protective Varnish Coating: Applying several coats of our signature exterior varnish, we safeguard your door from the elements and provide a stunning finish.
  5. Secure Area Protection: We take extra measures to ensure the area from which we remove your door is secure and protected. We use a large weatherized wood plank that is exceptionally secure, stronger than your door itself, giving you peace of mind and added protection against intruders.
