Company Profile

Canadian Wholesale Manufacturer of Custom Doors, Drawers, and Millwork Components

Founded in 1975 by Larry Mills, Mills Woodworking began as a humble one-man operation in a garage-based woodworking shop. Larry specialized in skillfully crafted custom furniture, cabinet doors, and other wood-related projects for local customers. Word spread quickly about the expert craftsmanship and superior quality of Canadian-made wood products that Mills offered and the demand for more of his custom designs quickly grew.

Since 1988, Mills Woodworking has focused the majority of their woodworking production on delivering ready-to-finish custom cabinet doors and drawer fronts. The company has evolved over the years into a premier Canadian wholesale manufacturer offering an impressive selection of custom ready-to-finish cabinet doors, drawer fronts, architectural wood mouldings and intricate trimwork, dovetail drawers, valances, and a wide variety of brackets, hinges, and pulls.

For three generations, the Mills Woodworking family has been supplying custom woodwork to thousands of satisfied customers across Canada. The company remains family owned and operated in the beautiful town of Essex, Ontario and has been transformed into an expansive workshop and spacious showroom where customers can custom order over 100 styles of cabinet doors, drawers, and accessories in a variety of wood types and colours, including domestic and exotic wood species.

The scale of Mills Woodworking’s projects has also increased with time. Although the majority of custom projects are residential in nature and related to kitchens and bath, Mills Woodworking is increasingly manufacturing custom millwork for commercial uses. Mills Woodworking has an extensive portfolio of conventional and decorative millwork in both public and private sectors, including government buildings such as schools, hospitals, and universities as well as privately owned buildings such as golf and country clubs and corporate offices.
