Recessed Panel
Recessed Panel doors are made of a composite material covered with wood veneer and a solid lumber frame. MDF panels are recommended for paint grade projects. Using a recessed panel provides a minimalistic look compared to a detailed raised panel and creates a door that is lighter in weight than a solid panel door.
Though the wood veneer and the solid lumber typically come from the same wood species there can occasionally be a difference in appearance in color and/or grain between veneer and lumber.
