At RealCraft, we use real wood sourced from around the country and around the world. We offer twenty wood species to suit every style, taste, and budget. All the wood we use is genuine—no engineered substitutes here. So you get what you pay for and experience the beauty and longevity of solid wood. 

As a trade professional, you know how the color and grain pattern of wood can affect the look and feel of a whole space. That’s why we offer wood and finish samples so you can see the wood in real life and compare several options.  

Wood contains many color and grain pattern variations even within the same species. That's why we always recommend ordering samples to get the best sense of our current inventory and what your finished door will look like. 

Wood is a natural material, so it should always be treated with care. Regular finish maintenance and gentle cleaning are key to preserving its beauty. 

We highly recommend adding a clear or stain finish to your door to protect it and make sure that it is eligible to be covered by our warranty. Stain finishes can intensify or adapt the color of the wood and provide additional protection against fading. Our oil stain provides a satin gloss and rich, luxurious color. Discover how our eight stain colors appear on our most popular wood species.

• Grain Pattern: Each wood species has its own unique grain pattern, like the fingerprint of a tree. Some grain patterns are straight and regular, others are knotty, and others can be dramatic like Zebrawood.  
• Shrinking and Expansion: Each wood species responds differently to changes in humidity. But most wood species experience slight shrinking and swelling with changes in the seasons. Using a high quality wood finish helps keep your wood dimensionally stable.  
• Density: Each wood species has its own pattern of density and weight. Some wood species, like Western Red Cedar, are less dense, which makes them optimal for very large doors. 
• Uniqueness: Each tree is different and will present natural variation in color and grain pattern.
