We recently completed a restoration project of some truly massive doors at the Wilmington Public Library in Delaware.
The library was built in 1922 with the bold shapes and lavish ornaments of the Art Deco style of architecture popular at that time.
We restored a pair 22’6’ tall, 10-panel White Oak and Mahogany pocket doors. The doors were 4” thick, 4’6” wide each, and badly distressed from years of use and lack of maintenance. The biggest challenge on this project was getting these giants off. Obviously this was not your ordinary door removal.
To see just how tricky the removal process was, watch a video of the removal at: http://bit.ly/1riG1tL
Once we hauled the mammoth doors back to the shop, we set to work restoring them with five guys at workstations around the doors.
When will you be able to upload them?
