From the selection of trees with suitable grain and color characteristics to the final quality control inspection before products are packaged and shipped, Elias Woodwork strives for perfection. It uses the latest and best technologies available to the wood manufacturing industry to ensure absolute accuracy and consistency in all steps of production. From German manufactured molding machines to Italian made flat-line spray systems, Elias Woodwork has spared no expense to bring its quality commitment to the forefront of every product offering. The combination of technology, expertise and quality control rise to the surface of every product that leaves its manufacturing facility bound for your next customer's kitchen. Elias Woodwork is timely delivered on every product. From its order process- ing department to your receipt of tracking information for your in-transit order, Elias Woodwork strives for timeliness. Every step of the order entry process is given a deadline and overseen by your own personal customer service represen- tative. From your confirmation to begin production to the company's production department beginning to cut components is only a matter of hours. Its lean manu- facturing mentality and production organization means that your order is simultaneously put under manufacture in multiple departments. While the frames for those cabinet doors are being cut and shaped, the panels are being carefully selected and color matched, while the wood for your crown mouldings are pulled out of a lift of lumber and prepared for shaping. With every department overseen and collec- tively managed by Elias Woodwork's vet- eran production manager, you have more than 200 people working together to deliver your next project on time. Elias Woodwork is environmentally driven in a conscious world. From its lean manufacturing mentality to absolute use of waste, Elias Woodwork strives for environmental accountability. In all cor- ners of its production process, it aims to remove redundancy, waste and product storage. Through years of hard work and experimentation, its production processes have been refined and timed to produce components only as they are needed, and not sooner. In this way, the company reduces the need to store and handle excess prod- uct, eliminating all energy consumption associated with doing so. The unavoidable waste wood from the manu- facturing processes is convert- ed into heat for the facility and for the lacquer curing ovens. Further, Elias Woodwork has the privilege of working with nature's very own fiber reinforced composite: wood. In partnering with Elias Woodwork, you and your cus- tomers are safely storing carbon removed from the atmosphere by living trees and converted into wood. Wood is the utmost in renewable and environmentally friend- ly materials available today and is a liv- ing, breathing and beautiful choice in an environmentally conscious world.

BRISA RETRACTABLE SCREEN DOOR INSTALLS QUICKLY, MAXIMIZES OUTDOOR VIEWS If you think screen doors offer the perfect solution to letting fresh air in and keeping insects out of a home, you may want to retract that. The door, that is. ODL Inc., a leading building products supplier of decorative and clear doorglass and entry treatments, has raised the bar with its newest hassle-free retractable screen door. Like hinged screen doors, the Brisa Retractable Screen Door allows air from the outdoors to circulate into a home. Unlike traditional systems, however, Brisa retracts into the door frame to pro- vide a full, clear view of the outside with- out losing valuable walk-through space. Brisa strikes the perfect balance between form and function. The simple, yet durable design makes Brisa easy for builders, remodelers and contractors to install, and its innovative operation makes it even easier for homeowners to use. Brisa requires just 30 minutes to install, and a single tool – a power drill. ODL's exclusive Quick-Snap track elim- inates the need for cutting; the aluminum track easily snaps into the screen housing and adjusts to match the width of the door. Brisa fits most popular door sizes, 32 to 36 inches, and with just two cuts, the screen unit can be cus- tomized for smaller door sizes, 28 to 31 ½ inches. For further convenience, the screen can be installed in a variety of applications: inward or outward swinging single-entry doors, sliding patio doors or double doors. The EZ-Glide System enables Brisa's smooth and steady operation. The technology allows the screen to slide seamlessly across the track, eliminating the irritating banging and slamming of traditional hinged screen doors. The ergonomic design allows for easy and convenient one-hand operation. The secure locking latch operates from the inside to prevent the screen from opening unintentionally. Rugged weather stripping on the top and bottom tracks keep dirt and insects out. Subtle stripes are woven into the screen to provide a visual cue to prevent walk-through. Brisa is aesthetically durable, with long-lasting painted surfaces and rust-free aluminum housing. Brisa has a neutral design to com- plement any home architectural style and building façade. When Brisa is not being used, the screen door retracts into the thin housing and blends into the doorframe. It's there when you need it and out of sight when you don't.
