Expert custom wood doors, frames, and trim services for Manhattan homes and businesses
Custom doors, frames, and trim in Manhattan bring cohesion and craftsmanship to your renovation - matching existing period details or establishing a new design language throughout your home. Lion Construction Management fabricates and installs custom interior doors (panel, flush, glass-lite), matching door frames, baseboard, crown molding, casing, and chair rail. Whether you need to replicate existing historic profiles or install modern clean-line trim, our mill shop and finish carpenters deliver precise, paint-ready results.
Working in Manhattan means tight spaces, vertical logistics, and zero tolerance for disruption. We coordinate freight elevator reservations, manage material staging in buildings with no storage, protect common-area hallways and lobbies, and sequence trades to minimize noise during restricted hours. Our superintendents and project managers understand the protocols of Manhattan high-rises - from lobby protection to post-construction common-area restoration - because we do this every day.
We measure all openings, review existing profiles (if matching), and select or design door styles, casing profiles, and trim details.
Doors and trim are precision-milled, sanded, and pre-finished in the shop for a factory-quality result that minimizes on-site dust and fumes.
Doors are hung, frames are set, and trim is installed with tight miters, flush joints, and consistent reveals throughout.
Caulk, fill, touch-up paint or stain, and hardware installation complete the project with a polished, professional result.
Custom craftsmanship projects in Manhattan require careful coordination between our mill shop, your building's management, and on-site installation teams. After design approval and detailed measurements, fabrication begins in our shop - typically 3-5 weeks depending on complexity. Meanwhile, we coordinate delivery logistics with your building, scheduling freight elevator time and staging areas. Installation in Manhattan apartments demands precision and cleanliness - our finish carpenters work with drop cloths, HEPA vacuums, and building-approved adhesives and finishes. Expect daily cleanup and common-area protection throughout the installation. Lion Construction Management handles everything from initial measurement through final touch-up, including paint-grade finishing if your millwork is being painted on-site.
Yes. We regularly profile and replicate existing door and trim styles in Manhattan's older buildings - matching wood species, dimensions, and profiles so new work blends seamlessly with original details.
Solid-core doors have a composite core wrapped in veneer - they're heavy and sound-dampening but less customizable. Solid-wood doors are built entirely from hardwood and can be custom-milled to any profile, size, or design. For high-end renovations in Manhattan, we typically recommend solid wood.
Custom solid-wood interior doors in Manhattan typically range from $800–$2,500 per door including hardware and installation, depending on wood species, design complexity, and size. Pocket doors and barn doors with custom hardware run $1,500–$4,000+. We provide detailed pricing after surveying your space.
Our primary focus is interior doors, frames, and trim. For exterior door replacement, we can coordinate with our trusted partners to ensure the work is done correctly and matches your interior renovation.
