Shaker Style Low T Panel

The Craftsman Style Low T-Brace door is one of our most traditional craftsman door designs.

If you would like panels to be replaced with glass, a contrasting wood species, metal, or another custom option, please give us a call at 1-800-694-5977. We love creating custom doors!

This style is available in a swinging or sliding door function, and is made from real wood with traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery. It is available in a variety of different wood species - call us if you don't see what you're looking for online.

We highly recommend adding a clear finish to your door to protect it and make sure that it is eligible to be covered by our warranty - more about that here.

Each species of wood we offer boasts its own unique characteristics. Finishing your door with a clear finish will not only protect it, but enhance the beauty of the wood by bringing out the striking color and detail of the grain.

Alder and Beech doors can have white primer added to prep the door for painting. Pre-primed Beech will have a smooth finish, while Alder will have visible knots for a more rustic look. Please keep this in mind when making your species selection.

For frequently asked questions about choosing a door and hardware, click here. To see sample swatches and descriptions of wood species, take a look at the photo below, or our wood buying guide here. The photo below shows all wood species with a clear finish on the left side, and the natural, unfinished wood on the right. If you're having trouble deciding, or want to see the wood in person, you can order samples here.

Please note that doors will ship separately from sliding hardware when purchased together. Doors are pictured with hardware for context. Sliding hardware is sold separately, and not included with the purchase of a door. Doors will not be pre-drilled for hardware. If you order a door and a hardware kit, we are unable to ship hardware installed on doors due to the risk of shipping damage.

We designed these doors with interior applications in mind. We don't recommend exterior use, and can't guarantee against warping or damage if you install your door outside.

As stated above, we are happy to accommodate requests for customizations; however, please understand that customization will add to the lead time. If you need more than 10 doors, or if your project requires special consideration, please call 1-800-694-5977. We'd be happy to help!

If you need a swinging door, we can add a door jamb in a wood species that matches your door, high-quality hinges, and add door boring for a handle or lock set. If you opt for these additions to your door, you'll need to select the correct door handing.

How to Determine Door Handing

Door handing is determined from the outside of a room. If the hinges are on the left side, the door has left handing. If the door swings into the room (away from you, standing outside the room), it is a left-hand inswing door. If it swings toward you, out of the room, it is a left-hand outswing, or left-hand reverse door. The opposite is true of right hand doors – the hinges will be on the right side. If the door swings into the room (away from you), it is a right-hand inswing door. If it swings toward you, out of the room, it is a right-hand outswing, or right-hand reverse door.

In cases where there isn’t a clear “inside” or “outside” to determine handing (i.e., the door connects two rooms), open the door and stand with your back against the hinges. If the door is on your left, it’s a left-handed door. If the door is on your right, it’s right-handed. If you are still unsure, don't worry! We'll be happy to help you make sure you select the right handing.
