Advance Door Silver is the calibrated flush door in the Advance Door range, manufactured with 100% imported pine frames and pressed four times under HEXAPRO technology. It is built as a 9 ply flush door on 3-core construction with shock resistance design, and is supplied as a 100% calibrated flush door shutter.
All 7 layers are FBTT treated against fungus, borer and termites, and the frames and battens are vacuum pressure treated against termites and borer under VPT. Bonding uses HVRT, so the resin penetrates deep inside the core for strong bonding instead of staying near the surface of the shutter.
Timber is kiln dried and humidity balance tested for no deformation, and lock rail reinforcement runs on both sides. Under test condition the shutter clears more than 8 end immersion cycles and MDST slam testing. Advance Door Silver carries a 15 year warranty.
Why Advance Door Silver Performs Differently?
9 Ply Flush Door
Nine-Layer Shutter Build
Nine bonded layers spread load across the full face of the shutter, which keeps the surface flat under laminate, veneer or paint.
3-Core Construction
Shock Resistance Design
Three structural cores with an intermediate panel layer absorb impact through the build, and the shutter is rated resistant to heavy impact.
100% Calibrated Flush Door
Both-Face Calibration
The shutter is calibrated to a uniform thickness across both faces, so laminate and veneer bond evenly with no high or low spots.
100% Imported Pine Frames
Consistent Softwood Framing
Imported pine frames give uniform density and straight grain, so screw hold at hinge and lock positions stays predictable across every shutter.
FBTT
Fungus Borer Termite Treated
All 7 layers are treated against fungus, borer and termites, so protection sits through the build rather than only at the surface.
VPT
Vacuum Pressure Treated
Frames and battens are vacuum pressure treated against termites and borer, which drives preservative into the timber instead of coating it.
HEXAPRO Technology
Four Times Pressed
Pressed four times for strength and perfection, and treated twice for protection against termite and borer during the manufacturing sequence.
HVRT
High Viscosity Resin Technology
High viscosity resin penetrates deep inside the core for strong bonding, rather than sitting near the surface where a bond line fails first.
Lock Rail Both Sides
Reinforced on Both Faces
Continuous lock rail on both sides lets the fitter set the lock, handle or latch on either face with no site modification.
Kiln Dried Timber
Humidity Balance Tested
Timber is kiln dried and humidity balance tested for no deformation, which controls the moisture movement that warps an untreated shutter.
End Immersion Test
More Than 8 Cycles
Edges are immersion cycle tested more than eight times using 710 grade resin, under test condition, to check the bond under the most stress.
15 Year
Warranty
Advance Door is backed by a 12 year warranty against manufacturing defects, subject to correct installation, handling and maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Advance Door Silver
What is Advance Door Silver used for?
Advance Door Silver is used for bedroom doors, full-height interior doors, office cabin doors and hotel guest room openings in dry areas. Both-face calibration, FBTT treatment and VPT treated frames suit interiors that will be finished in laminate or veneer.
What does 100% calibrated mean in Advance Door Silver?
It means the shutter is machined to a uniform thickness across both faces. A calibrated face lets adhesive spread evenly during lamination, so the finish sits flat and the core structure does not telegraph through the surface.
What is FBTT treatment in Advance Door Silver?
FBTT stands for Fungus Borer Termite Treated. In Advance Door Silver all 7 layers are treated against fungus, borer and termites, so protection runs through the build rather than sitting only on the outer face of the shutter.
Is Advance Door Silver suitable for bathrooms and kitchens?
Advance Door Silver is built for interior dry-area openings. For bathrooms, utility areas and other moisture-exposed positions, specify Advance Door Gold or Advance Door Tungsten, which are 100% boiling water proof. Advance Door Tungsten is also 100% fire retardant.
What warranty does Advance Door Silver carry?
Advance Door Silver carries a 15 year warranty against manufacturing defects, subject to correct installation and handling. Within the range, Advance Door carries 12 years, Advance Door Gold carries 35 years and Advance Door Tungsten carries a lifetime warranty.
How is Advance Door Silver different from Advance Door Gold?
Gold adds 100% boiling water proof construction, E1 resin, and pine battens alongside the frames, and lifts the warranty from 15 to 35 years. Both share 9 ply construction, 3-core build, FBTT 7 layer treatment, VPT and calibration.
