Specialty Items of the Week

For those of you who are joining us for the first time, welcome to My Door Company's ongoing discussion on custom handcrafted doors and cabinets. My Door Company is a Colorado-based company that offers all things woodworking, particularly custom doors and cabinets. Our main facility is in Palmer Lake, Colorado, just about 40 miles south of Denver. We are proud to have been part of the woodworking industry for the last 30 years, with almost half of those years present in Southern Colorado. Check out our photo gallery above to see a handful of the doors and cabinets we have built in the past, or see www.MyDoorCo.com for a full set of our photos. Also, feel free to contact us anytime by phone or email - and if you happen to be in the neighborhood stop by the shop and we'd be happy to give you the grand tour. Visitors are always welcome. And of course, thanks to our returning readers for the continued visits. 

This week we dive into some of the other talents of My Door Company - obviously our namesake pegs us as official Door "Aficionados," though our craftsmanship does not stop there. Not only is My Door Company proud to be one of Colorado's finest door companies, we also consider ourselves to be a top-notch general woodworking outfit as well. Given the custom nature of our handcrafted doors and cabinets, we often work with our customers on other woodworking projects as well. During the last three decades, we have built a great deal of tables, entertainment centers, beds, countertops, mantles, and staircases (among other custom items). Your imagination is our only limitation. 

For a living room or den, the options for mantles, fireplaces, or other accents are endless. The top image is a decorative fireplace, built entirely from MDF (medium density fiberboard), which worked great for this project because it was painted. It is an overall simple design, though the fluting on the columns, the prominent crown moulding, the faux finish, and the "H" monogram above the outer columns, make this mantle/fireplace one-of-a-kind. 

This picture frame was made from stacking and mixing a variety of different moulding profiles, and complete with a hand carved finishing effect. Great for that hard to frame piece of art or photograph. 

And for a bedroom, the below bedroom sets were made to match images provided by our clients, though custom built to fit their specific size restrictions and preferences. Complete with matching bedside tables, raised paneling, fluting, and decorative accents. 

The craftsmen of My Door Company can build from an idea, a magazine picture, or one of our previous designs. As with any of our custom projects, we are with you start to finish - from the initial design consultation to the final product. Nobody does custom handcrafted doors, cabinets, and specialty items like My Door Company.
