Description

A meranti hardwood door frame with a right sidelite is an external entrance frame that combines a solid timber door surround with a fixed glazed side panel positioned on the right-hand side when viewed from outside.

The frame is made from meranti hardwood, selected for its strength, stability, and smooth grain, which makes it ideal for painted or stained finishes. The integrated right sidelite allows additional natural light into the entrance area while keeping a clean, well-balanced appearance.

The door and sidelite are typically built into a single continuous outer frame, rebated to accept glazing and detailed for external use with features such as drip grooves, sealed joints, and a compatible weathered threshold. The sidelite is usually fixed and double glazed to provide thermal efficiency and security.

This configuration is commonly used for residential front doors where extra daylight and visual width are required, offering a practical and durable hardwood entrance solution.
