Custom garage doors & matching entry doors
I had to match Old Fashioned Carriagehouse doors & the same style entry door from a residence dating back to around 1880. Schilkensen's Inc. was the woodworking company that a friend of mine reccommended to me. They were prompt in coming & measuring the job, made usefull suggestions, & got me some drawings within 2 days. Pricing as well. They made everything right in the shop, didn't sub out a single item. 6 weeks later I was looking at 2, 9' wide x 8'high doors and a radiused, stain-grade, 6' wide x 8' high entry door that were installed in my customers residence. These guys made the entry door with mortise & tenon joinery that was EXACTLY like the one that my customer wanted. The garage doors were layered, & all the horizontal boards were grain matched, as was the T & G in the panels. Kudos to Schilkensens Inc. Great Job Guys!

- What could this company do to improve their services?
- Maybe not be quite so meticulous.
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- Hire a local shop that has to keep their reputation good. This way they'll do the right thing or else everyone will know that the screwed up.
