Dealer Aids

Elias Woodwork supplies sample kits tailored to your business.

Through many years of experience selling doors all across North America, we realize that what may be popular in California, may not be popular in Montana. We also have noticed that some manufacturers may want to sell certain species or door styles, and stay away from others.

Our Sales and Customer Service staff will work with you on preparing a sample kit which is tailored for your needs, and includes the products, species, colors and styles based on your input. Most sample kits ship within 1 week. Or, if you would prefer a mix of our most popular products, just let us know and we will send our standard sales kit to you. Each product comes with a label identifying the products to make ordering easy and accurate.

Sample Kit & Materials

COLOR SAMPLE BEST PRACTICES

Elias Woodwork & Manufacturing solid color samples serve as a good representation of color and tone which our consumers can expect in a painted finish. Minor variations in tone and texture may be noticeable across different species or substrates. The color of a Solid Color Lacquer Paint Finish, particularly light colors, may shift slightly over time with exposure to direct sunlight.

If you plan to complement the renovation with additional material by matching the finish locally, we highly recommend waiting until the live order has arrived and using finished product for the match requirements instead of using the color swatch. This will ensure that you’re getting a unique match to the current material.

To continue providing your customers with good representation of Solid Color Lacquers, we suggest ordering replacement samples every 1-2 years. Please contact your Customer Service Specialist as these are required.
