Open Door Furniture

We can’t thank Andrew enough for this beautiful creation! It’s not just furniture it’s art. Every time we walk into the room and see it we smile. Everyone that comes into our home marvels. Andrew did an amazing job bringing this to life from just a simple inspiration photo and exceeded our expectations. We appreciate the attention to detail not just in the construction but in the installation and presentation of work. When I showed it to my mom and asked “isn’t it beautiful?” She said no- it’s stunning! We will enjoy this for years.

Andrew and his team are AMAZING! I cannot speak highly enough of their quality and workmanship. Always my "go-to" for quality, timely, incredible work. You'll love their team's quick response times and thoughtful approach to your project. Super detail oriented, I know that any piece they build will be meticulously crafted.

So grateful for my experience with Open Door Furniture, specifically with the owner Andrew and his colleague Blake. This was my first time purchasing a custom piece of furniture so I did my due diligence about carpenters in the SD area. After chatting with a dozen or so of them via email and phone, I went with Andrew because of his clear passion for his work, positive attitude, responsiveness, attention to detail, and ability to morph my original idea into something utterly gorgeous and unexpected. What started out as a request for a more standard walnut dresser morphed into the bacote beauty that you see in the attached picture. Thanks Andrew and Blake for an unforgettable journey; this wood box brings a smile to my face every time I see it.

As a gift, my wife ordered a desk from Open Door Furniture for my home office. Each piece is handmade so I had the opportunity to work with Andrew to tailor the specifications to my office. Andrew made some excellent recommendations and made the process very easy. He sent photos of the process from start to finish and coordinated with me for delivery. The finished product was beautiful and of extraordinary quality. The pieces of wood grain flow perfectly. The drawers are perfect and the joints are seamless. I love the dovetail joints as well. You can tell that Andrew has an eye for detail and takes pride in the work that he does. The desk is perfect and a statement piece will undoubtedly last for years to come. It really does make working in the home office just a little bit more enjoyable. Thank you for the wonderful piece of furniture and the above and beyond service!

When I needed a custom console for my clients, I found Open Door Furniture. These particular clients were an interesting prospect for a woodworking project as the husband is a serious woodworking hobbyist and opted not to take on this particular project himself. While the designed piece had beautiful lines and an understated elegance, the scope of work was a significant challenge in both planning and execution. Fast forward to the recent installation and this stunner is now the perfect addition to the room. It continues to draw your eye to the details and craftsmanship Andrew delivered. Both my clients and I are beyond pleased with the result and can't say enough good things about Andrew, his process, and the custom console that my clients will appreciate for many years to come.

Andrew and his team were a pleasure to work with. The Conference Room tables he built are perfect. Great attention to detail, super responsive and goes above and beyond to get the job done right!

It was such a pleasure to work with a true talent such as Andrew and his team. As a fellow designer I appreciate Andrew's attention to detail, craftsmanship, and demeanor. The pieces he made for my client are absolutely stunning and they were very pleased. He is very personable and wonderful to collaborate with. I look forward to our next project together!

I contacted Andrew a few months ago with an unusual project; I had collected over 400 wine corks that I wanted to incorporate into a wood coffee table. The project was such a challenge, in fact, that two other woodworkers had previously turned me down! In refreshing contrast, however, Andrew immediately jumped at the opportunity with enthusiasm and professionalism. After our first phone consult, I was struck by his warmth, passion and commitment to the job, which shone through from start to finish. Throughout the process, he sent me regular email and photo updates, requesting my input on every detail to ensure it was my dream table, while also offering his advice when I was indecisive. Come delivery day, I wasn't just pleased with the final product, but blown away by the exquisite detail and care his team put into my project. Though it appeared a masterpiece to me, Andrew–the perfectionist he is–was bothered by a couple minor imperfections, and therefore insisted on returning at a later date to make his work of art even more beautiful. In summary, I not only highly recommend Open Door if you want a piece of custom furniture that you will cherish for life, but I will also most certainly be returning to Andrew again for my next project.

Andrew executed my vision beautifully! As a designer, it's imperative to have talented furniture makers by your side. From the beginning to the end, Andrew was a complete professional. His attention to detail is unparalleled. Both my self and my client could not have been more pleased. Can't wait to work Andrew on the next project!

Quality furniture can make all the difference in your home! My name is Tracy Lynn and I am an interior designer located in San Diego. My team and I have had the pleasure of working with Open Door Furniture to design and build multiple pieces of furniture. I hugely enjoyed my collaboration with Andrew. The atmosphere of his workshop with so many enthusiastic ideas was inspiring. I could not help feel the dedication to meeting the highest standards of craftsmanship. After working with Andrew and his team for many months, I’m quite impressed. The team is fast, devilishly accurate in the details and serious about their craft. If you are looking to have furniture made, consider Open Door Furniture, they are the real deal!

I am an interior designer in San Diego, California and recently worked with Andrew of Open Door Furniture for a custom built media unit for my client in the downtown area. Andrew's attention to detail and excellent follow through leaves me speechless. There are very few individuals in this business any more who pride themselves in not only producing a high quality piece of furniture but also offer such excellent customer service. I look forward to working with Open Door Furniture again as it made my job so easy!!

Andrew worked closely with me and my brother (another designer) for 4 months - we came up with a masterpiece that should serve my family well for the next 40 years or so - my sons will have to negotiate who inherits it!
