Factory Finishing

Wood doors are all available with a premium hand-wiped finish that accentuates the natural beauty of our doors. As an added benefit, we actually finish the edges of all of our panels before they are inserted into our doors. This eliminates the chance that any unfinished wood will become exposed around the edge of the panel if exposed to low humidity conditions.

Factory Finishing


Built to Your Exact Specifications

Every TruStile door is made to order, each built to the exact style and size you require, and each door is constructed to provide superior, architecturally correct details and an unequaled finishing surface.
