Today, a netizen from Hangzhou Decoration Network asked: Which is better, solid wood unpainted doors or solid wood lacquered doors?

Regarding this question, first we need to understand the difference between solid wood unpainted doors and solid wood lacquered doors:

Solid wood unpainted doors, as the name suggests, are not painted. Instead, high-density boards are placed on both the inside and outside layers of the frame, with PVC or other materials attached to the surface of the board. Personally, I feel that these doors are not very durable. The outer layer seems quite fragile, with poor waterproofing. After a few years, it's easy for the surface to peel off or rot. They also have poor gloss. Solid wood lacquered doors, on the other hand, undergo a dust-free lacquering process on the surface of the density board. It’s not just stuck on, and they tend to be more expensive, usually over 1000 yuan at minimum. Based on my understanding of decorative materials, lacquered doors are much better than unpainted ones, with better gloss, which can also be seen from their market prices. Lacquered doors are more durable because the lacquer coating provides moisture resistance and wear resistance. The choice of door still depends on the homeowner's consumption level. I think doors are a major part of decoration, and the quality of doors best reflects the overall quality of the decoration. Unpainted doors are now outdated, and high-molecular ones are more practical. Decoration pollution mainly comes from the benzene, formaldehyde, and aromatic hydrocarbons released by plywood and paint, so there will always be some pollution. Just let them air out for a few days after purchase and ensure good ventilation, and it won't have a significant impact. Lacquered doors are relatively more environmentally friendly.
