Daiek creates reproduction doors for historic structures with spectacular results and long service life.

Historic Church Front Doors
New front doors for the historic St. Paul on the Lake Church in Grosse Pointe face almost due east toward Lake St. Clair. The church is only 300 feet away from the lake, so these doors receive a considerable amount of sun and wind exposure. Excellent materials and a complete weather proofing system were important parts of the design. The doors match the originals in every detail, but the new composite construction will provide many more years of trouble-free service.
