Door in relief, flush door, closing mechanism
 |
| From left: door in relief; flush door |
The wooden finishing comprehends two types of doors: in relief or flush.
When creating a flush door, the door and its closing mechanism are placed inside the heartwood which hides the built-in hinges. The frame and door are usually provided coarse, separate from the furniture, to ease the varnishing and veneering operations done by the shipyard.
When producing in relief the door protrudes from the furniture's frame; the hinges and closing mechanism are visible.
This kind of manufacturing, usually provided in coarse quality marine grade plywood, fits perfectly all kinds of coatings: veneering of essences, lacquering etc.
