Battened and Ledged Doors: Battens
are vertical bonds which are having
grooves are attached together by
horizontal supports called ledges as
shown in below figure.
Battens and ledges have dimension of
100 to 200 mm. (width) and 20 to 30

Framed and Panelled Door: They’re very strong and
give good appearance when compared to battened
doors. These are the widely used doors in almost all
types of buildings.
Stiles, vertical members and rails, horizontal
members are grooved along the inner edges of
frame to receive the panels.
The panels are made up of timber, wood board or
glass.
These doors may be single leaf for narrow openings
and double leaf for wider openings.
Minimum width of stile are 100 mm. and minimum
width of bottom and rails are 150 mm.

portion is covered on both sides with plywood or face
veneer. Now a days these type of doors are widely used
because of good appearance, economic, ease of
construction and greater durability.
There are two types of Flushed doors:

It is mainly a swinging hurdle that will close the
entrance to a room or building or vehicle.
Swinging on a double hinge. it opens in either
direction as automated. Sometimes it can

Except the frame (made with any material, as steel, wood, etc.), the material used is always
glass (rails, stiles and panels).
The disadvantage of them is that they are easily broken. Therefore, glass should be
reinforced, template or laminated.
They have not good performance in acoustic, airtightness or thermal insolation.
These are used when you need light or views, or for spaces to look bigger.
