WPC Interior Doors and Steel Security Doors for an Accra Residential Development
A representative, anonymised Accra project combining WPC interior doors with steel security entrance doors.
Quick answer
For this Accra residential development, WPC interior doors were selected to reduce termite and rainy-season swelling risk, while steel security entrance doors provided stronger anti-pry protection at exterior openings. The package included spare hardware and labelled packing groups to support local maintenance.
Project snapshot
| Field | Detail |
|---|---|
| Market | Ghana, Accra |
| Buyer type | Residential developer / contractor |
| Product | WPC interior doors + steel security entrance doors |
| Quantity | 612 interior door sets + 84 entrance doors |
| Container | 2 × 40HQ |
| Key constraints | Termite risk, rainy season swelling, entrance security, spare parts |
The challenge
The project team wanted to reduce maintenance claims caused by termite exposure, wet-season humidity and bottom-edge swelling. Entrance doors also needed stronger resistance against prying and hardware wear.
The specification
Interior openings used WPC door sets with moisture-stable boards, matched frames and practical finishes. Entrance openings used dark steel security doors with reinforced hinges, anti-pry edge details and lock hardware selected for local replacement.
What VISFURN changed
- Replaced vulnerable timber doors with WPC interior doors in high-risk areas.
- Specified steel security entrance doors with anti-pry edge and reinforced hinge areas.
- Added spare lock cylinders, hinges and handles into the container.
- Grouped cartons by building, floor and room type to simplify site distribution.
Logistics and result
The shipment moved from North China to Tema with a planning estimate of 33–45 days, excluding port congestion. The buyer built in extra clearance time and kept spare hardware on site.
The package reduced wet-season door swelling complaints and made maintenance replacement easier for the local contractor.
Buyer questions
WPC is not a food source for termites in the same way timber is, making it a strong option for termite-prone interior projects.
WPC is suitable for many interior areas because it is more moisture-stable than timber-based doors.
A planning estimate is commonly 33–45 days, excluding port congestion and clearance delays.
Review steel thickness, anti-pry edge, hinge reinforcement, lock body, cylinder and frame fixing.
Yes. Spare hinges, locks and handles help local maintenance teams avoid long replacement delays.
