Swinging Doors

Any door style we build can be configured as a swinging door — single, double, or in combination with fixed panels. Swinging doors are hinged to open either inward or outward, and can be paired with sidelights or transoms for a complete entry system. For openings too wide for a single door, multiple swinging doors can be combined with fixed panels to fill the space while keeping each door at a manageable size.

Configurations

Single swing — one door in a frame, the most common entry door
Double swing — two doors side by side, both operating, meeting in the center
Swing with fixed sidelite(s) — operating door with one or two fixed glass panels beside it
Bi-fold — doors hinged to each other in a piano formation that folds open, ideal for wide openings

Pre-Hung & Ready to Install

All swinging doors are machined for hinges and prefit in their frames before shipment. Hinges and weatherstripping are included with the door and frame. The frame includes a sill/threshold, typically made of oak or white oak for durability and weather resistance.

Wood Species

Built from solid lumber in your specified species — Douglas fir, clear pine, mahogany, white oak, red oak, and others. Each species offers different characteristics in grain, color, durability, and moisture resistance.

Glass Options

Swinging doors can be solid (no glass), or built with glass lites in any configuration — from a small vision panel to full-length glass. Insulated glass with Low-E for Title 24 compliance, or single-pane for historic work. Choose true divided lite (TDL) or simulated divided lite (SDL).

Hardware

Hinges, locks, and handles are selected based on the door configuration and your preferences. We can supply modern cylindrical locks, mortise locks, or multipoint locking systems for double doors and large entry units.

Matching Existing Doors

For additions, remodels, and historic renovations, we can replicate your existing swinging door profiles, panel configuration, glass layout, and exterior casing so the new doors match the originals — even if the original manufacturer is no longer in business.
