Real Carriage Door Company, now known as RealCraft, is dedicated to reviving the lost art of craftsmanship in the door industry, emphasizing authenticity, beauty, and sustainability. Founded by Don Rees, who began crafting custom timber frame homes in 1976, the company evolved from a need for unique doors that matched the individuality of each client. In 1995, Rees created his first swing-out carriage garage doors, which quickly garnered attention and demand. This led to the establishment of a full-fledged custom door business that today provides a diverse range of handcrafted doors, including entry, sliding barn, and specialty doors, as well as high-quality hardware.
At RealCraft, the mission is clear: to eliminate the lifeless conformity associated with mass production. Each door is made by hand, using genuine materials and time-honored methods, allowing for unparalleled customization that caters to the unique visions of homeowners. The company's strong values—mastery, beauty, integrity, and adventure—are reflected in its commitment to delivering high-quality products that customers can take pride in.
In addition to its door offerings, RealCraft is enthusiastic about environmental responsibility, pledging to plant trees for every door sold. Their extensive range of products, tailored to match various styles and preferences, reinforces their belief that beautiful surroundings contribute to the essence of a home.
Through innovative design resources and personalized guidance, RealCraft provides customers with the tools they need to find the perfect door that resonates with their style. The company has earned nationwide recognition, synonymous with quality and craftsmanship, and remains an integral choice for homeowners and designers dedicated to unique and aesthetically pleasing home environments.
