a wealth of special features...
Artwork
ArtStruct maintains a collection of original artwork
available to work into any custom ArtStruct door,
as well as a list of artists who can be commissioned to create an
original artwork for one of our doors. Special attention is given
to the selection of artwork so that it is durable and weather resistant.
The ArtStruct collection features art comprised
of glass, bronze, ceramics, wood and more.

A client may select artwork from the ArtStruct collection
or work from an artist of their choosing. If a client would like
to use work from an artist not on the Artstruck list, we can provide
a dimensional template and list of approved materials.

Recycled
and Sustainable Materials
For the main grid design, ArtStruct doors utilize
off-cuts and odd-sized wood pieces that are unusable for other construction
purposes. The blocks for the grid can be made from any wood, hard
or soft, as the grid by nature is structurally strong. Please note
that for environmental reasons, rainforest hardwoods will not be
used unless it is waster and unusable for another purpose.
For the door frame, where stability and strength are required, Forest
Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified Redwood or Vertical Grain Douglass
Fir are used.
Craftsmanship
ArtStruct Art Doors are crafted, rather than manufactured.
They are constructed to last for generations.
The door frames are held together mechanically through the time-honored
tradition of Mortise and Tenon. Art inclusions float in a slot/rabbet
that is cut into the block grid. The variety of art materials and
wood grain direction sets the construction of these doors apart
from the usual frame and panel. Special consideration must be made
for the added movement.
Construction
ArtStruct Art Doors are thicker, heavier, and stronger
than the average door. While all doors are pre-hung, installation
of a provided specialized door jam is necessary to insure the integrity
of the product. The thickness of the doorframe fits most standard
hardware.
Specifications
Each ArtStruct door is an original, and designed
specifically for each client. Because of this, dimensions, materials,
and artistic expression elements vary. Click

and currently available artwork from the ArtStruct Collection.
Price
ArtStruct Doors generally range in price from $5,000 and up, depending
on complexity of components and design. The door price does not include crating, shipping,
knob and lock hardware, or installation.
