"What is now La Puerta Originals, started as one man's vision. Two decades ago, Scott Coleman, an architect and custom builder and traveler, adopted a hobby of combing the world for antique doors and old wood. The materials he initially salvaged were being discarded or destroyed in their countries of origin. The beauty of the pieces inspired him to recreate them into functional art. He began to fashion these old doors into new interior doors, impressive entry doors, wood gates, ornamental shutters and more."They don't just do exterior doors, either. In fact, they can and will do just about anything: furniture, architectural elements, floors, ceilings, plus gates and interior doors.
Personally, my favourites are the smaller doors, particularly the following:
I can honestly say that there isn't one thing I dislike about La Puerta Originals. Okay, I lied, they could be a teensy bit closer to Virginia.
