Can I paint or stain JELD-WEN doors and windows?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, JELD-WEN doors and windows can typically be painted or stained, depending on the materials used. Most JELD-WEN interior doors, made from materials such as solid wood or engineered wood, are designed to accept a variety of finishes, including paints and stains. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to achieve the best results. For exterior products, such as fiberglass or steel doors, JELD-WEN recommends using specific types of paint or stains that are suitable for those materials to ensure durability and weather resistance. Before applying any finish, it is advisable to prepare the surface properly by cleaning and sanding it as needed. Users should also consider consulting the warranty guidelines to ensure that proper finishing techniques do not void any warranty claims.
