Engineered wood doors, a remarkable alternative to wooden doors, consist of a solid core and real wood veneer surface. While engineered wood doors offer a number of benefits over common alternatives, it helps to be aware of the finer lines when it comes to choosing one for your property. On that note, in this blog post, we present a brief overview of the various types of core options you can find in engineered wood doors and frames. Read on.
Solid Particle Core
Engineered wood doors with a solid particle core are both affordable and sturdy. Solid particle core doors are constructed using high-quality wood veneers that are glued over either a solid core of engineered or composite wood. This process helps in giving the solid particle core doors the qualities of both hollow-core doors and solid core. This not only makes the door affordable but also solid and sturdy.
The advantages of solid core doors include:
- Lower cost than solid wood doors
- Excellent sound isolation
- Fire retardant surface
- Resistant to contraction and expansion
Mikasa solid core particle doors are constructed using solid core filler made from triple layer density particle board that is imported from Germany. Addition to that, the door has dual layers of wood chips of high density.

Tubular Core
Tubular core doors are also among the popular engineered types of wooden doors. These doors are constructed in the same way how bridges are constructed. Tubular core doors are great at providing a combination of sturdiness and lightweight. When compared to solid wood doors, tubular core doors are almost 60% lighter. This means that for a door to be sturdy, it does not necessarily have to be heavy. Unlike other wood-based materials, tubular core doors have very low thickness. This feature alone makes these doors ideal for delicate surfaces. In tubular core doors, the particles are specially positioned, which guarantees higher resistance to impacts. Tubular core doors offered by Mikasa are made from high-performance tubular cores comprising LVL style and Rail. This unique structure provides stability to the door leaf.
