These doors were heavy, so Mike built a rolling frame for us to move them inside the shop, and outside for finishing and loading. This made turning them manageable for just the two of us. It took three men to unload and install them at the jobsite.

These copper doors will weather gently with time and withstand the desert heat. They will protect the home and add value. They make a bold statement about the homeowners and the artist who painstakingly revived them.
