Abstract (en)

The invention provides a door leaf comprising a rigid frame (7) supporting a pair of outer skins (8), the frame being made of a timber-based material and having at one or more of its exposed edges an edging layer (10) made from a substantially water-impermeable material. The edging layer (10) can improve the appearance of the door leaf at its exposed edges and help to protect the frame from the ingress of moisture, without unduly compromising structural strength or ease of working. The invention also provides a door assembly incorporating this door leaf with an outer door frame, and a process for making such a door leaf or door assembly. <IMAGE>
