Vendor Spotlight: Simpson Door Lumicor Panels
Posted on August 24, 2010 · Leave a CommentLooking for a new way to show off your door? Do it with Lumicor Resin Panels. The new acrylic panels were made especially for Simpson Door Company’s French doors. The Lumicor panels are made with translucent resins with materials enclosed inside of them. The materials give the panels an extra, unique design that you usually don’t come across. The enclosed material design paired with the resin panels also brings a level of privacy depending on the design. If you have a flare for door design and would like to make your doors a showpiece then consider Lumicor panels.
To see other Lumicor Resin Panel designs visit the Simpson Door Company site.
