Replacing the door body 2 is a major undertaking, but since only the design part 30A needs to be replaced, maintenance is easy.
[0043] In the fitting 100, multiple decorative elements 31A are arranged in a row along the width direction on the surface of the main panel 20. If the decorative portion forming the decorative surface were made up of a single piece, the decorative portion would be heavy and difficult to replace. In this embodiment, the decorative portion 30A is divided into multiple decorative elements 31A, so that the decorative elements 31A can be replaced one by one, making replacement easy.
[0044] The shapes and combinations of the components shown in the above-described embodiments are merely examples, and various modifications can be made based on design requirements, etc., within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0045] In the embodiment described above, the decorative panel 32 is made of wood, but is not limited to this. The decorative panel may be made of materials such as tile, glass, and metal.
[0046] In the embodiment described above, the magnetic material portion is provided on both the indoor and outdoor surfaces of the main body panel 20, and the design portion 30 is magnetically attached to the outdoor surface of the main body panel 20, but this is not limiting.
