Another alternative product to canadian lumber. It is clearly superior to their over priced garbage and its made in America. If these were made of wood I would have to order extra to compensate for defects.

Probably made in the USA of Canadian oil. I’m serious.

We have oil. This is not the TDS thread.

Customer paid a small fortune for these doors..... good quality lumber is getting harder to come by and longevity and price is an issue... so alternative products will replace this before long. The entire pool shed siding and trim is pvc.....made to last so you wont have to replace later and pay for lumber again.

Has nothing to do with TDS. I’m just pointing out that the US imports billions of $ in Canadian polyethylene every year and it’s quite likely the materials you’re using are made with it. Often it’s cheaper to import and manufacture closer to the customer than use distillates from domestic oil.

I know you pride yourself on excellence, just trying to keep my end up.

I work in manufacturing including process and petro chemical industries, I can’t help being knowledgeable. Sounds like you’re using ACRE, rice and PVC product.

You do nice work, I’ve done enough of my own remodeling in my life to recognize it.
