Unfortunately, no. The frames we have wrapped have all been print vinyl that is part of an overall wall mural that the door is incorporated into. If you were to wrap the frames, I would do them in pieces.
Thanks a lot for sharing. Great video. Does this work for the front door? My fron door is not directly exposed to rain or subline, btw. Any particular wrap for outdoors? Thanks.
Thanks for watching! Generally, 3M DiNoc is an indoor material. If not exposed to rain or sun, the variations of temperature would affect the vinyl too much, as it's intended to be used in climate controlled areas. Automotive vinyl wrap would be suitable for outdoors, but if you're looking for a woodgrain, that may be hard to find unless you're good with a print, which to me looks really fake.
Perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. I have never wrapped before and my new garage cabinets were installed with too dark a melamine so I was thinking of wrapping them with a 3M wood grain. Question: If I don't want to wrap around the door can I just cut it flush - will it still bond ok and not begin to lift? Will I need to use that 3m primer glue pen you used to on the edges so I have a good bond. I have never used this so my fear is the the edges will start to peel up. Thank you! I wish I could find a professional like you to do this for me. I live in North Hill suburb of Pittsburgh, PA. Do you know anyone in this area that comes to people house to wrap cabinets? Thanks!!!
Thank you for watching. Yes, you can cut flush if you don't want to wrap around the edges. Just "cut back" by holding your blade at a 45 degree angle relative to the edge corner so that you don't leave a "pick edge" on the edge of the door. It's always good practice to use some primer on the edges, particularly ones that my see high wear/handling. 3M, I believe, actually requires primer to be used for warranty when using DiNoc architectural vinyl wrap.
@@ColorChangeCustoms Thank you ! I am using DiNoc wrap so I will use the primer near the edge. FIrst time doing this for me so I picked up a lot from your video.
Amazing explanation! Im thinking about adding this service to my wall finishes business. Any recommendations on pricing? If you dont mind how much would this exact door cost as an individual job. Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!
Honestly, I'm not sure in terms of pricing. The company I work for does all the quoting...I'm just one of the installers, I'm not on the sales side. But if you already have an idea of your labor costs, then I would add material cost and any other incidentals you feel necessary, like time and supplies for prepping a door (such as doing some body filler and sanding if necessary, hardware removal and hardware reinstallation), and any overhead costs you might typically include in a quote. A decent installer trained on using DiNoc can wrap a door like this (after the door has been fully prepped) in around 30 minutes, give or take, based on the installer experience level. So, hopefully that gives you a framework to price even if I can't give you an exact price.
I don't know if the door was solid wood through and through, or just a core with wood veneer sealed with a clear. Typically, primer is used on just the side edges, and maybe along the top and bottom edges if the installer feels necessary. I never put primer on the entire surface of the door.
Hey! where are you based out of?? I am working on a hotel project and looking to do this for 30 doors. Reach out! I can't find any contact on your page
In my experience, no. These doors are pretty heavy and can make it difficult to work on if you need to move it a bit if on the hinges. Also, once you are done, you really risk damaging the vinyl reinstalling the door due to their weight. But, like all things, it all depends. If the door is super light, then maybe it is. However, the doors I've worked on have all been heavy doors like these.

Best door wrapping guide, straight to the point with great visuals and explanation. Love the technique!
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Excellent demonstration! We do these types of doors but have not done the frames. Do you have a video demonstrating that technique?
Unfortunately, no. The frames we have wrapped have all been print vinyl that is part of an overall wall mural that the door is incorporated into. If you were to wrap the frames, I would do them in pieces.
Really thorough, well explained. Thank you!

Good, just to add , myself i like to use a hair dryer when smoothing out
Thanks for watching! Yes, I have a heat gun at the ready as well...just didn't need it for this one. Sometimes though it comes in clutch!!
Well explained , amazing job you did
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Looks great!

Hi, can I use any other glue instead of 3m primer
Yes, but 3m of course only recommend their product. I've used Avery ProBond adhesion promoter in a pinch as an alternative
very god explain 👋
Thank you and thanks for watching!@
Great job. What vinyl wrap # did you use?
Thanks and thanks for watching. We used 3M DiNoc series architectural vinyl for this project
Is that a solid wood door? Do you need to apply primer on the entire door or just the perimeter??
I don't know if the door was solid wood through and through, or just a core with wood veneer sealed with a clear. Typically, primer is used on just the side edges, and maybe along the top and bottom edges if the installer feels necessary. I never put primer on the entire surface of the door.
I’m looking at starting my own business doing this, do you have any contact information to share some idea etc
If it was only that easy
It just takes a bit of practice. I've done probably 100+ doors now, so it's "easy" for me, but my very first few were disasters LOL!
What primer can I use? I wrapped my door but now seems to be peeling off😢 pls help
Sorry for the late reply. If you are using 3M products, they recommend 3M primer 94.

I'm in Omaha, Nebraska.
Is it not easier to take the door off?
In my experience, no. These doors are pretty heavy and can make it difficult to work on if you need to move it a bit if on the hinges. Also, once you are done, you really risk damaging the vinyl reinstalling the door due to their weight. But, like all things, it all depends. If the door is super light, then maybe it is.

@@ColorChangeCustoms thanks, makes sense
