The impression of a home or business is often formed by how it looks and the first thing we notice is the front door. This is especially true of wooden doors which give a warm, rich, and personal feeling.  A door made using an engineered stiles & rail system will give you that personal touch while still supplying stability and security.

At Creative Woodworks Inc, this system allows us to produce parts of the highest quality.  We take finger joint Pine that has been dried to 6-8% moisture content or cross-banded LVL from the west coast soft woods and that becomes our core. Then we use 3/16 thick veneers with 3/4" edge bands, in a variety of species and grades to wrap around the core. Our veneer types include Sapele, Sipo, African Mahogany, Spanish Cedar, Poplar, Red Oak, Maple, White Oak, Knotty Alder, and Cherry.  This extensive inventory allows us to custom design any stile or rail to your specifications. The result is a finished product that is precisely crafted for strength and fit but is as beautiful as a solid lumber piece.

An engineered stile and rail system has many advantages over solid lumber:

The process results in lighter, stronger parts with less chance of warping

 

• Less equipment is needed since the parts are sold ready for profiling
• Less time needed for assembly so your lead time is decreased
• Since you can order the width and length you need, it is easy to calculate a fixed cost
• We only use Franklins  type I waterproof  glue in our laminating process
• To ensure our standards of quality we perform random testing using the WDMA type one testing (which includes a Multiple Boil – Dry Test.)
