Building solid wood doors since 1947
About Us
Our history is our backbone. For over seventy years, we’ve been creating custom solid-wood interior and exterior doors. At Madawaska Door & Trim, we consistently craft each door to perfection, using old world craftsmanship combined with new world techniques.
Our History
The company’s roots trace back to 1947, when the Hildebrandt family began crafting doors from a small workshop beside their home in Barry’s Bay. As demand grew, the business moved to its current location in 1963 and officially became known as Madawaska Doors in 1973.
Over the decades, the company evolved—changing in size, vision, name, and ownership—yet the same tradition of fine woodworking has remained at its core. The methods, attention to detail, and pride in craftsmanship established more than 75 years ago continue to define every door produced today.
In late 2025, new ownership acquired the assets of the business—led by individuals who had been customers of Madawaska Doors for more than 20 years. Having ordered and installed Madawaska doors for decades, they know firsthand the quality, durability, and countless hours of care that go into every detail. This long-standing relationship shaped their commitment to preserving the craftsmanship and soul of the brand, while bringing renewed investment, modern equipment, and a revitalized focus on customer experience.
Today, Madawaska Doors continues to honour its heritage while building a stronger, more innovative future—crafting exceptional doors for the next generation of homeowners, builders, and craftspeople

Our team hand picks the wood for each door to meet top of the line quality standards, matching the natural wood grain and cutting to our customer’s custom specifications. We use only solid wood throughout, with no veneers or fillers.
