2 Panel Double Doors: Double Hung Custom Bird Door Knockers – DD7568

2 Panel Double Doors: Double Hung Custom Bird Door Knockers

All of our custom doors are built with the highest quality materials available anywhere. This includes genuine, solid, full length timber that has been naturally cured in the Scottsdale, Arizona desert air, and hand hewn mortise and tenon construction. Handmade in the USA by skilled master craftsmen, and guaranteed to last forever with little or no maintenance.

At ArtFactory.com we believe in building furniture and doors that are not something that you just use for a few years and then throw away. Building items that are disposable is a practice that is unique to the past fifty years. In the old world, when a piece of furniture was built, it was built from solid, natural materials by master craftsmen. Most importantly, it was built to last forever. Something like a solid wood entrance door would be passed down through a family for generations along with the home that was also built to last forever. With these symmetrical design, double hung, custom 2 panel double doors, handcrafted from solid cedar (as shown), we have carried that tradition of built to last craftsmanship into the 21st century.

For these, custom, solid wood, custom 2 panel double doors, we built each side with two raised wood panels to create a symmetrical design on both door blades, that are in a flat, solid wood door jamb. These doors are also double hung (also known a Dutch Doors) meaning that both the top half and the bottom half of the doors open separately, as pictured. A true modern masterpiece inspired by historic design, and built with period correct methods and materials. We have built these in the same hand and craft that would have been used in centuries gone by, by great craftsmen of that era. This type of product cannot be built overnight, or with low quality materials. That is why we use the highest quality, full length solid timber, and build it by hand, using the age old, tried and tested method of mortise and tenon joinery. This makes for a product that will stand the test of time. Furthermore, although this is a flat topped design as pictured, like all of our designs, it can be built with a full, or semi-arched top, and for exterior, interior, residential, or commercial use. We also offer additional customization options, such as speakeasy portals, upon request. With options that are limited only by your imagination, the sky truly is the limit when designing a custom door with our experts.

2 Panel Double Doors Custom Hardware

These custom 2 panel double doors as pictured, feature a modern design set of handles, the custom contemporary door pulls with matching iron backplates and custom lock cover. All custom door hardware is hand forged by our master blacksmiths from genuine wrought iron. The old fashioned way, with hammer, anvil, and fire.

The custom 2 panel double doors, as pictured, feature our modern design, custom contemporary door pulls, matching iron backplates and custom lock cover. You can choose from these, or any of our hundreds of styles of custom door handles or theme door pulls, or even provide your own design. We make custom door hardware in any size, style or design, and to fit any application. All of our custom handles and hardware are hand hammered into shape by master blacksmiths over a coal fired forge. As with all of our custom doors, hardware options for our custom 2 panel double doors are fully customizable. You can also choose a straight forward design, with only custom handles, or to customize with any accent elements that you may choose to complete the your design, such as custom bird door knockers that have been added to this door. In addition to custom door knockers, we offer options such as ornamental hinge straps, iron accent pieces, and ornamental clavos are available upon request. Clavos are decorative nails that are each hand hammered into shape by our master blacksmiths. Like all of our double doors, this grand entrance secures from the inside with a pair of blacksmith hand forged wrought iron slide bolt locks (as pictured).

Additionally, all of our hardware comes advance patinated with a hand applied, heat infused iron oxide patina. This type of finish won't crack, peel, or flake like paints and powder coats. Our door hardware is built to your specifications by our master blacksmiths using hand forged wrought iron. When we say hand forged, we mean with fire, hammer, and anvil. We never cast, drop forge, or use any fast or mass production process. This means you will receive a fine art quality piece of hardware that is uniquely yours, of investment quality, and built to stand the test of time. This includes our hand applied, iron oxide patina finishes. These finishes are bonded to the metal at over 1000 degrees Fahrenheit so that the finish becomes part of the metal, and will stand the test of time with little or no maintenance.

Build A Family Legacy Through Heirloom Doors

Don't just buy a door when you can own a custom grand entrance that has that "WOW factor" that you have been looking for, and will properly represent your personality and accomplishment to every guest who arrives at your home or business.

We specialize in building historically inspired designs that are built using the same techniques and materials as the originals from history. Building a family legacy through inherited heirlooms has been going on since the beginning of time. Building heirloom furniture and doors intended to last forever is one of the primary ways we all have in achieving some small part of immortality. These cherished family items will touch our loved ones for many years to come through physical interactions as well as family photos. Many societies, including the Egyptians and Mayans, as well as European royalty and aristocracy have created a passed down legacy and heritage in this way for thousands of years.

In fact, if it were not for these artifacts, it would be impossible to know these people ever existed, how they were important to history. This is also the case in the 21st century within your own family. No matter if it’s a simple, hope chest with your personal message or name as a gift to a loved one, or extravagant, fine art quality, master handcrafted custom 2 panel double doors, these items will be important to the story of your family history long after we are gone. It is our belief that when you buy a solid wood door from ArtFactory.com, that is will be the last door you ever have to buy for that entrance. Not only that, but this door is an investment that will add to the long term value of your property.

This Is No Ordinary Entrance Door

Our wood finishes will never crack, flake, chip, or peel off like paints and powder coats. That is because our hand rubbed stain infusion process begins with fine hand sanding, and infused open grain hand applied stains. Furthermore, additional steps add natural oils, waxes, and lacquers with curing between each step. That puts the finish into the wood, not just sprayed on. This means a finish that will stay beautiful for generations with little or no maintenance.

These are exquisitely designed, fine art quality, genuine solid wood, custom 2 panel double doors. Our combination of the finest all natural materials, and master hand craftsmanship allow for us to offer a quality of product that is unsurpassed anywhere else, at any price.

It will serve as a way to celebrate your life, and its direct effects on who they are and what your influence was on your family's history. True artifacts enhance and enrich all of our lives in a way that mass-produced merchandise never will, thus preserving the best of mankind and expressing our love for each other.

Dutch Doors Historical Design Inspiration

The Dutch door originated in the Netherlands during the 17th century. Before the invention of electricity, a dutch door served as a way to let air and light into the home while keeping children inside and animals out. When the European-American colonies were founded, most of the population lived on farms where animals roamed freely (barbed wire had yet to be invented). To keep farm animals out, while still being able to greet visitors, Dutch-style doors became a hot commodity. These doors persisted until the Industrial Revolution brought a new way of living.
