WPC doors and chaukhats in Kanpur

The door for the openings that get wet. A wood polymer composite core that does not swell, rot or draw termites, in a plain face or laminated on both sides — and WPC chaukhats to hang it in, so the frame holds up as well as the door.

Open Monday to Saturday

What a WPC door is.

Wood fibre bound into a polymer, so the door behaves more like a plastic than a plank when water gets at it.

A wood polymer composite core

Wood flour mixed with PVC resin and foamed into a dense sheet. There is no timber frame inside and no battens with gaps between them — the shutter is solid all the way through.

Water does not get into it

The polymer seals the wood fibre in, so a wet day, a wet week or a wet floor does not swell the door, lift its edges or rot its foot.

Nothing for a termite to eat

Termites and borers go for wood they can reach. In WPC the fibre is locked inside the polymer, which is why it is the door, and the frame, for termite-prone ground floors.

Made to your size

WPC doors are made to the opening on order and are ready in about four working days. Send the frame size on WhatsApp and we’ll take it from there.

Plain or laminated.

The same core either way. The difference is only in the face, and in which rooms it has to match.

  • Plain WPC — for the rooms nobody dresses up

    A clean, even face that is easy to wipe down. The sensible door for bathrooms, toilets, the wash area and the utility, where it is there to be used rather than looked at.

  • Laminated WPC — when the bathroom door faces the bedroom

    Laminate pressed on both faces, so the door arrives finished and can match the rest of the house. The usual choice when a bathroom opens off a bedroom or a lobby and the door is on show.

  • Want a design in the face?

    Z-on’s grooving and digital print designs also come on a WPC leaf, if a plain or laminated face is too quiet for the room.

A waterproof door in a wooden frame is half a job.

Most of our doors are sold as the door leaf only, so the chaukhat is bought separately. In a bathroom, that choice matters as much as the door.

Where it’s used.

Anywhere water, damp or termites would finish off a wooden door.

Bathrooms and toilets

The opening it is made for. Splashed every day, mopped at the foot, and steamed every morning.

Wash areas and utility rooms

Washing machines, buckets and wet floors. A plain WPC face takes it and wipes clean.

Hostels, hospitals and institutions

Rows of toilet blocks that get washed down hard and still have to look the same in five years.

Damp and termite-prone ground floors

Rooms where the wall stays damp through the monsoon, or where termites have already eaten one set of doors.

Where it is not the answer.

WPC is the best door we sell for water. That doesn’t make it the best door for every opening.

Why buy it here.

Questions we get asked.

Is a WPC door really waterproof?

Yes. The polymer seals the wood fibre in, so the door doesn't swell, rot or lift at the edges however often it gets wet. Hang it in a WPC chaukhat so the frame holds up as well.

Will a WPC door get termites?

No. WPC doesn't attract termites or borers, which makes it a good door and frame for damp, termite-prone ground floors.

Can a WPC door be used as the main door?

We don't recommend it. A main door needs strength and security first, so we'd suggest a heavy flush door there and WPC for the bathrooms and wet areas.

Do screws and hinges hold in WPC?

Yes, as long as the carpenter drills a pilot hole for each screw and doesn't overtighten. We can guide your carpenter if he hasn't hung one before.

Does the door come with the chaukhat?

No, the door is sold as the leaf only. We sell WPC chaukhats separately, and you can order both together.

Can I get a custom size?

Yes. WPC doors are made to your size on order and take about 4 working days. Send the frame size on WhatsApp.

What warranty do WPC doors carry?

Our WPC doors carry a 10-year warranty.

Doors for the bathroom?

Send the frame sizes, how many, and whether you need the chaukhat too. The rate comes back on WhatsApp the same day.
