There's a laundry list of things we take pride in, but we can sum it up simply: We can build anything; we build it well. In fact our capabilities for building exceed the ideas that one team of designers can dream up- and if only we had time to explore all the creative ideas that [...]
I met last week with our Stinson rep to catch up on new products and patterns. No one knows quality performance fabrics, vinyls, non-PVCs, and now silicone options more than Clayton. As always, it was educational. I've met with Clayton and other fabric reps enough to know how quality is measured on these fabrics, in double [...]
Bowlero is a new customer to us and we love the design details that we get to work on with them. Design collaboration is an area that we strive for excellence in. The biggest design and production challenges were the bar and the AV Hub. There [...]
Loving these new channeled half rounds for Rookie's! I can't wait to meet up with some girlfriends for a beer in these gorgeous red booths... Great place for a date too...
A new customer of ours is collaborating with our designer for all of the seating in their restaurant. We love a creative collaborative effort!

Santa made his 2nd annual visit to Minnesota Millwork and Fixtures on Saturday to visit our employees' families. Few if any warnings for behavior were issued; it appeared everyone who came made the nice list this year! Where else can one chat with the big man in a 42" glazed black tufted round booth? [...]
Booths! Our upholstery team is hard at it with some fantastic seating in the works. They have turned out some beautiful pieces lately! These ladies (and gentlemen) are cranking out booths with efficiency and accuracy, and we are so proud of how this department [...]
We've been making beautiful (oops, not supposed to say that about your own work. Well it's true.) back bars for years. Just one example that we've made several variations of for the Olive Garden: We've been making bar tops for less time, that's true, however, one can't help but watch as each [...]
