(Click on any image for a larger more detailed view in a new window) The entry doors to this luxury penthouse were just not 'elegant' enough... so I built and installed these two solid 'Cherry', full-lite doors (36" x 94" x 1 3/4") with matching casings. |

This customer called me to see if we could "refinish" his original entry doors. Turns out that this was not at all practical - they were made from cheap pine, had multiple coats of old paint and leaked ... so the best solution was to build a new entry door, sidelites and framework from "Sapele" Mahogany finished with satin varnish, using the original leaded glass panels. |
