Award winning artist H.J. Nick designs all of our custom doors, and gets much of his inspiration from these great, centuries old structures.

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. That is why we build our historically inspired doors using the correct techniques and materials that were used to build the originals. This type of craftsmanship has proven throughout history to create a quality of door that will stand the test of time. All of our wood products are built using hand hewn, mortise and tenon joinery. This type of craftsmanship allows for a level of durability that will never be found in today's glued together, faux wood doors. In other words, this is not a reproduction quality product, when you buy a castle or cathedral door from ArtFactory.com, you are receiving the genuine article.
