PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES: 10. INTERIOR FINISHING

10.1 Interior Door Is Warped

Acceptable Performance/Condition

Interior doors shall not become inoperable or warp more than 6 mm (1/4”) when measured corner to corner. In the case of double doors, one door shall not warp more than 6 mm (1/4”) beyond the face of the adjacent door.

The 6 mm (1/4”) measure applies to a standard height door (6’ 8”) and a proportional increase applies to larger doors.

Minor warping or shrinkage of interior wood doors is not uncommon and can be affected by changes in indoor relative humidity and is not considered a defect.
