Panel and a method for producing the panel

A method for producing a panel (1,50) having first and second opposite major surfaces (2,3), the first major surface (2) simulating a framed-up panel of the type comprising an infill panel (14) and a pair of spaced apart stiles (12) joined by a pair of spaced apart rails (16, 54, 56) which together extend around the infill panel (14), the method comprising the steps of providing a main panel member (4,51) having first and second opposite major surfaces (5, 6, 52, 53) corresponding respectively to the first and second surfaces (2, 3) of the panel (1), the main panel member (4, 51) being formed from a main substrate (7) having first and second opposite major faces (8, 9), and a main veneer sheet (10) laminated to the first face (8) of the main substrate (7) for forming the first surface (5,52) of the main panel member (4,51), shaping the first surface (5,52) of the main panel member (4,51) to simulate the pair of spaced apart elongated stiles (12) and the infill panel (14) extending between the stiles (12), characterized in that the first surface is shaped to define two spaced apart rail receiving surfaces (15) extending between the stiles (12) adjacent respective opposite ends of the infill panel (14), and two spaced apart elongated rails (16) are secured to the respective rail receiving surfaces (15), the rails (16) extending between and joining the stiles (12).
