Door Manufacturer of the Year 2021
We are excited to announce that The Door Maker has been awarded Door Manufacturer of the Year by Canada Prestige Awards.
Canada Prestige Awards by Corporate Live Wire looks to “recognise small and medium-sized businesses that have proven to be the best in their market over the past 12 months.”
The panel of judges selected The Door Maker as this year’s winner based on:
Service Excellence
The Door Maker is a very customer-centric company. Each cabinet door is manufactured based on the customer’s preferences. Going 100% custom may seem intimidating, but rest assured The Door Maker is there to guide you every step of the way.
Their recently renovated showroom showcases all of their available panel profiles. Customers will also be able to see sample edge profiles, mullions and frames, decorative columns, wine racks, and their extensive colour selection. Customers are encouraged to take home colour swatches to find the perfect match for their kitchen. The showroom also has a Door Advisor who is happy to answer any questions you may have.
To further assist customers who are across Canada and the US, The Door Maker’s customer service team is available online through their social media channels.
Product Quality
At The Door Maker, product quality is of utmost importance. As the cabinet doors pass through each stage of the manufacturing process, they are checked by skilled staff to ensure quality control.
All materials used by the company including machinery, MDF, glue, and PVC are sourced from top quality companies. The Door Maker imports PVC from the finest design and manufacturing companies in Europe.
Innovative Practices
The Door Maker is the first company in the cabinet industry to develop an interactive tool that lets customers design their doors online. The company named this tool, Build a Door.
The Build a Door configurator lets customers first choose the panel profile of their cabinet door. Their options include flat-panel, raised-panel, and shaker-style cabinet doors. Next, they choose the style of their cabinet doors. Their options include flat, squared, or arched. After that, customers can custom design the edge profile of their cabinet doors. They can choose from rounded, beveled, or square designs. Lastly, customers choose a colour. The Door Maker has over 150 colours to choose from with matte, wood grain, and high gloss thermofoil finishes.
Once the cabinet door has been designed, customers can enter their measurements and complete the checkout process.
At The Door Maker, each and every cabinet door is custom-made to the customer’s desired preferences. With over 30,000 possible variations, it’s difficult to keep sample doors in stock. With the growing need of customers wanting to see the final product before placing their order, The Door Maker expanded their online Build a Door configurator to include custom sample door orders. This initiative has been a huge success with customers being able to see and feel the final product before making a purchase decision.
Ethical or Sustainable Methods of Working
The Door Maker uses environmentally responsible materials and components. They also utilize the latest in energy-efficient, emissions-free machinery. The company works in conjunction with local environmental groups to ensure that the thermofoil doors leave no carbon footprint.
The MDF used to make the cabinet doors is certified by The Composite Panel Association’s (CPA) Eco-Certified Composite Standard (ECCS).
The entire team at The Door Maker is so incredibly honoured to be receiving this award. We would like to thank the judges for recognizing our innovative business practices in the cabinetry industry.
