Find the millwork for your project
Complete a doorway or porch with solid wood millwork that complements the surrounding architecture. Explore casing, balusters, brackets, and spandrels, with design and length options that help connect a new door to the rest of your home.
Casing and trim frame a door opening and finish the transition to the wall. The width and profile can carry details from nearby windows or give a new entrance a more defined outline. Choose the casing alongside the door so the two feel considered together.
On a porch, flat-sawn balusters create a repeating pattern within the railing. Victorian brackets and corbels add detail at corners and beneath eaves, while decorative spandrels extend a pattern across the upper portion of an opening. Each occupies a different part of the porch; their shapes can relate without all being equally ornate.
Use the house as your starting point
For an older home, look at the woodwork that remains. A curve in a bracket or a raised edge on the casing can help guide the new pieces. Photographs of the full entrance are useful alongside close views of the details you want to preserve.
Sizing options depend on the piece. Flat-sawn balusters, baluster handrails and bases, and decorative spandrels are sold in custom lengths. Casing and trim come in several standard lengths. Each Victorian bracket and corbel design is made in its own specific size, so compare the listed dimensions with the space available.
Coordinate the wood and finish
We handcraft our architectural millwork from solid wood. If you are choosing it alongside a door, plan the wood and finish together. Our standard door wood, African Mahogany, offers beauty and durability; our team can help you select millwork that complements it and suits the location.
Outdoor pieces need wood suited to their exposure. Indoors, the choice can give more weight to grain and the appearance of nearby woodwork. A painted finish emphasizes the outline and profile; stain brings the wood itself into the design.
Start with the type of piece your project needs, then browse its designs and available options. Our craftspeople can help you work through dimensions or relate new millwork to the details already in your home.
