COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
The Construction of Doors and Wainscots by the Combination of
Wood Frames and Metal Panelling.
I JOSEPH TALL of View House, Belvoir Road, Lordship Lane, Dulwich, Surrey,
Architect and Consulting Surveyor for Portland Cement Concrete Buildings do
hereby declare the nature of my invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
The object of this invention is to construct doors and wainscots from a combination
of wood and metal which metal may be plain, corrugated ribbed or ornamented such
as by stamping or otherwise the metal being employed as panels and fitted or held in
position by the usual method of grooving or it may be by fasteners.
An example of my invention is shown on the annexed drawings.
Figure 1 is an elevation of a door or a wainscot.
Figure 2 is a section of same through line a, c, of Figure 1.
A is the timber of the door or wainscot with the several pieces, tongued, filletted or
otherwise joined in any well known manner.
B, B, are the metal panels taking the place of, and fitted in the frame in the same
way as ordinary wood panels.
The panels shown are bulged in parallel order by stamping from one side only so
that a series of ribs C, C, appear on the outside and if the inside of the panels where
the indents appear are desired to be filled up I insert strips of wood D, D, as seen at
Figure 2.
The panels shown are only illustrations of what I term my invention but such
panels may be stamped with ring shaped indents and ribs or in diagonals, or with
indents and ribs alternately like ordinary corrugations, the stamping in all cases being
at a distance from the edges, so that the metal panels may be combined with the
frame A and fitted in, in the same manner as ordinary wooden panels.
Certain parts of the metal panels may be prepared for producing artistic effect,
such as in the nickel bath by nickelling the ribs only, the other parts being painte
and picked out in any desired colours.
.Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
1. The manufacture and employment of Doors and Wainscots from wooden frames

drawings.
2. The preparation and employment of shaped or deviced metal panels with plain
ends or edges in wooden door and wainscot frames as described.
The 11th day of June 1890.

Patent Agent, 166, Fleet Street, London, Agent for the said J. Tall.
