Please ensure that you’ve entered in all of your measurements correctly and that you are 100% confident in the details of your order.
We are able to offer the best made doors in the United States with the fastest turnaround because we have a highly efficient ordering and manufacturing process. Due to this, our process is not flexible. Once an order is complete, it is processed immediately at our factory and cannot be changed, canceled or altered for any reason. If you are concerned that you are unsure about, or may want to change your order, please do not place it.
We read sizes submitted by Buyer as “Width X Height”. Orders are placed to the nearest 1/16” (One Sixteenth inches). There is a 1/16th inch tolerance on all doors and drawer fronts. Please check sizes and specifications carefully as this is your confirmation of the order. We do this to make sure you receive your order correctly. Any mistake that is not corrected becomes your responsibility. Special instructions should be clearly communicated.
If you do not receive confirmation please check your spam folder or call us. We may have experienced a transmission problem and need your assistance. Do not re-fax or e-mail again.
For doors over 50" tall, a center rail will be required for stability and is strongly recommended. THERE IS NO WARRANTY for any doors over 60" tall or doors over 50" with NO CENTER RAIL. There are ADDITIONAL handling fees and requirements for doors exceeding 50" in height. Orders with doors over 60" are excluded in the "Free shipping for orders over $1500" offer. Customer service will contact you on all oversized orders.
Limited Warranty
Homize sells UNFINISHED wood products nationwide. ONCE OUR PRODUCTS ARE RECEIVED, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO MONITOR THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THEY ARE KEPT. We provide special handling instructions with every order, to minimize any warping, twisting or cracking due to conditions beyond our control. Claims on any order or material discrepancies must be made within 2 weeks of receipt of order and prior to HINGING, HANGING or FINISHING.
Doors will not be accepted for return without prior written approval. Doors need to be returned in their original condition to the offices of Homize for inspection. Any item that has been hinged, hung or finished, shows signs of exposure to moisture, heat or sun, shows signs of job site neglect or is modified in any way shall be deemed accepted by the buyer and voids this limited warranty. If it is deemed to be a manufacturing error, all shipping fees will be reimbursed.
If our product is handled in accordance with our recommended guidelines (see Section 4), most problems will be minimized. Remember, you are dealing with an unfinished wood product that will warp, twist or crack within 24 hours if not treated or handled properly.
In the event that a mistake has been made to your order, Homize will do everything in its power to correct that mistake, which may cause delays to the order and Buyer’s project. Homize will not be held responsible for any delays or subsequent damages or delays as a result of a remake, replacement or problem order. Any requests for paint grade doors with wood panels carry no warranty or guarantee of any kind.
There are NO WARRANTIES applicable to the purchase of a door over 50” without a center rail, or any door over 60” regardless of the use of a center rail. There are NO EXCEPTIONS.
ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY ON THIS PRODUCT, AND ON THE PARTICULAR PORTION OR PART OF THE PRODUCT IN QUESTION. THE WARRANTY AND REMEDIES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHERS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
Ordering
All orders must be placed through the Site. All orders are processed immediately upon payment. Items will be inspected at our facility before shipping for damage and quality. Our production team will begin construction upon approval and receipt of payment in full.
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS THAT REQUIRES YOUR SPECIAL ATTENTION:
Because of its nature, wood will expand and contract. Changes in temperature, humidity and other conditions produce wood movements. Wood is like a sponge, even when finished it will pick up moisture and easily expand in mountain and coastal regions causing wood to warp, twist or crack. It will dry out and easily shrink in desert regions causing wood to warp, twist or crack. Consequently, proper precautions must be taken during storing, handling and finishing operations.
You may need to perform extra sanding steps prior to finishing. For painting doors it is required that raw material get primed prior to painting. To preserve and enhance the quality and beauty of our unfinished wood products we strongly recommend finishing and sealing of doors in a very timely manner.
Unfinished wood needs protection from moisture and from fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Construction sites may vary in temperature as much as 30 to 50 degrees from day to night, causing warping, twisting or cracking of unfinished doors within 24 hours. Even finished doors will do the same.
Before doors are delivered, have all windows and exterior doors in place and bring the house to occupancy level conditions. Make sure all new drywall and plaster has had at least 2 weeks to dry.
Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood products generates wood dust, a substance known to the State of California to cause cancer.
Homize strictly adheres to these recommendations:
- Under no circumstances should unfinished mill work be delivered to a job or site that is under construction and open to the elements.
- Doors should not be subjected to abnormal heat, cold, extreme dryness, humid conditions or sudden changes therein.
- Homize does not recommend ordering doors that are over 50” in height. If you choose to order a door over 50” it is strongly recommended to use a center rail. Any door over 50” that does not have a center rail will not be warrantied for any reason. Any door over 60” will not be warrantied for any reason, even if a center rail is used. Homize is not liable for any damage that may occur during any process of producing a door over 50” with no center rail or 60” and taller, including but not limited to production, shipping, and delivery.
HOMIZE WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE DUE TO THE ABOVE LISTED SITUATIONS. THESE ARE NOT CONSIDERED A DEFECT.
Payment
All payments shall be made through the Site. Homize accepts payment via Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.

All orders will be assessed for standard HANDLING CHARGES. Each door (a pair of doors counts as 2 items) and drawer fronts will be counted for the handling charge. This charge will apply to all orders, whether delivered via LTL common carrier or ground shipping.

Return & Refund Policy
Due to the custom made nature of our products NO Returns will be allowed.
Products must be inspected upon receipt. Our limited warranty covers the replacement of doors and drawer fronts in an unfinished state and in good condition, as originally delivered F.O.B. from our factory. Any variation from our normal construction specifications is not guaranteed, i.e., reducing the thickness of the panel or frames or any height over 50". A warp or twist of 3/16" of an inch or less is not considered a defect. A twist is measured by placing the face of the door against a true plane surface. Doors are manufactured to the nearest 1/16th of an inch. There is a 1/16th tolerance for all doors and drawer fronts.
In the very rare event that a damaged product is shipped, please email detailed pictures of the damage with an explanation and request for replacement. If the product was damaged/defective before or during shipping, it will be replaced, we will ship a replacement at no cost to the customer.
