What Popular Minnesota Wood Species Is This Door?


















Did you guess oak?

You would probably be correct except that it is a trick question. This is a metal door - like the kind of service door commonly leading out to one's garage. It started out plain and white. This graining technique was applied by one of our craftsmen in our shop in Eagan - ready to be delivered to a delighted homeowner.

Anyone can paint?

Maybe, but this is one example of the professional difference. The painting trade assocation likes to put it this way, "Picture it Painted Professionally!"
