MAESTRA™ Technology
Bourassa revolutionized the way wood doors are made, with an anti-warping, anti-cracking, anti-draft and anti-peeling technique called MAESTRA™. This new technology will provide peace of mind for decades to come.
Anti-Warping
Their patented reinforcement system increases the door’s stiffness and prevents warping. For larger doors, they’ve created a thickness chart based on the door’s dimensions to maintain the stiffness to height ratio so there is no risk of warping.
Anti-Cracking
The door structure is built of multiple pieces of wood glued together with veneer on both sides to weatherproof the glue joints. The glue used for the veneer also acts as a moisture barrier. The floating panels on the inside of the door allow the wood to contract and expand freely with the temperature, while their gluing method makes the joints stronger than the wood fiber and prevents the wood from cracking.
Anti-Draft
Copper Interlock™ weather stripping provides a better seal to prevent air from entering thanks to its lock-and-key design and a contact surface that’s three times larger than conventional weather-strips. Their doors are also equipped with a second side weather-stripping for maximum protection.
The edges of the floating panels are sealed with a non-drying butyl that keeps the panel sealed while allowing it to contract and expand with the temperature. The invisible multi-strip brush system, combined with their waterjet molding, seals out even the heaviest rain to provide the best leak protection.
Anti-Peeling
Their 4-coat finishing system provides long term protection against all environmental conditions.
Coat 1 • The impregnators create a protective barrier against fungi, molds, and parasites.
Color-enhancing impregnators give wood the desired shade and protect it from UV rays and atmospheric agents such as rain, frost, and pollution.
Coat 2 • The sealer extends the life of the wood and improves top-coat adhesion and resistance. Sealer is easy to sand and effectively fills pores to give your wood a beautiful finish. The insulation prevents migration of tannins.
Coats 3 & 4 • The top coat comes into direct contact with the environment. It is highly water resistant and controls how much moisture moves between the wood and the air around it. Top coats are made with filters and pigments designed to combat harmful UV rays and will keep the wood looking great for years to come.
