We stock maple (paint-grade and standard) and white oak at a standard 3/4" thickness.

• White Oak: Known for its density and strong grain pattern, this is a durable choice for a textured, stained look.
• Maple: We stock both Paint-Grade and Standard Maple. It has a fine, uniform texture that provides a smooth base for paint or consistent staining.

Requests for other wood types or thicknesses are available, but may extend lead times.

Most of our doors are cope and stick doors. The Bar Harbor slim shaker is the only mitered door style we offer at this time.

Our wood doors are crafted from high-quality, kiln-dried materials to minimize moisture absorption and ensure long-term durability.

The two main style options we build are Flat Panel (including Shaker) and Raised Panel. Shaker cabinet doors have a simple, flat center panel. They are the most versatile choice and fit almost any design, from modern kitchens to farmhouse renovations. Raised Panel doors feature a contoured center panel that adds depth. These work best in traditional homes or bathrooms where you want a classic, detailed look.

It depends on the finish and your budget. Solid wood is the premium choice for staining because it offers long-term value; if it gets damaged, you can repair it. Veneer is just a thin layer over a core, so deep scratches are hard to fix, but it significantly reduces the price of the door while still maintaining the same look. For painted cabinetry, MDF is often a smarter choice than wood. MDF is stable and does not expand or contract with humidity, which prevents paint cracking. For project budget planning, use MDF for painted parts to save money, and invest in solid wood where you want the grain to show.

Solid wood is a timeless classic that offers unmatched beauty and strength, but it also has its own quirks to consider.

Pros of Wood Cabinet Doors:

• It’s incredibly strong: Solid wood is durable and holds screws and hinges tighter than almost any other material, so it can withstand heavy daily use.
• It’s forgiving and repairable: One of the best things about real wood is that if you dent or scratch it, you can simply sand it down and refinish it to look brand new again.
• The look is unbeatable: the natural grain adds warmth and character, often boosting your home's resale value.

Cons of Wood Cabinet Doors:

• It "breathes" and moves: Because it is a natural material, wood expands and contracts with the seasons. This means you might see small gaps appear at the joints. This risk is heavily reduced by using MDF center panels with painted wood doors.
• It’s a bit high-maintenance: To keep the wood happy and prevent warping, you really need to keep the humidity levels in your home consistent year-round.
• It’s an investment: You are paying for that natural durability and organic look, so the upfront cost is generally higher than MDF or veneer options.
