JELD-WEN Now Offering Birkdale™, a Sleek, Flat Panel Molded Interior Door

JELD-WEN unveils Birkdale™, a Shaker-style interior door with the upscale feel of a Craftsman-style wood door at a molded door price point. Developed for both residential and commercial use, the three equal flat panel design meets the ever-increasing demand for a simple, modern wood-door look at the affordable price point and low maintenance of a molded door. The Birkdale™, which debuted at the 2018 International Builders’ Show, where its flexibility was showcased in both contemporary and Craftsman home vignettes, is now available for order.

“The Birkdale is a classic design that fits many architectural styles - giving designers a flexible option that creates a cohesive, signature look,” said Bob Bender, Senior Vice President, North America Sales at JELD-WEN. “With our proprietary, eco-friendly construction method, we’ve created a contemporary door reminiscent of traditional stile and rail wood construction, but with the performance and affordability benefits of a molded door.”

JELD-WEN offers the largest selection of Shaker-style molded interior door designs on the market today. Featuring recessed panels with non-profiled sticking, Birkdale™ joins JELD-WEN’s impressive Flat Panel Collection of molded interior doors including Conmore®, Craftsman III™, Madison® and Monroe®.

The Birkdale™ door offers several options and features to meet buyers’ needs including:

  • Door heights of 6’8”, 7’0” or 8’0”
  • Door arrives prefinished or primed and ready to paint
  • UL GREENGUARD Gold Certified
  • ADA compliant with a 10” bottom rail
  • Optional 20-minute fire-rated door panel
  • A 5-year limited warranty

“At JELD-WEN, we work tirelessly to listen, learn, and exceed the needs of homeowners, business owners, builders, architects and designers,” Bender added. “The Birkdale is an example of how we continue to create products that bring together beautiful style, modern functionality and affordability to the market.”
