The door itself is only one element in the entryway to a building. A successful entryway will convey signals of approach by the use of porticos, porches or columns. Primary and secondary entrances are distinguished by various use of these elements as well as transoms and sidelights.

Radius woodwork is a specialty of Historic Doors. This feature is employed in transoms, paneling and mouldings, as well as in arched and circular doors. We provide design and fabrication services for complete entryway settings.
