About Our Boise Carpenter Team
Introduction to Our Story
At AW Door and Trim Design, carpentry is more than a trade — it is the art of precision, patience, and problem solving. Based in Boise, Idaho, and serving Garden City and Meridian, our company was founded on the belief that every home deserves doors and trim that look beautiful, function properly, and last for years.
Our beginnings were simple. With decades of combined carpentry experience, our team saw a need for local homeowners to have a door and trim specialist they could trust. Too often, doors were hung carelessly or trim was installed without the fine detail that makes it feel finished. We set out to change that. Today, AW Door and Trim Design is known throughout the Treasure Valley for reliable craftsmanship, transparent communication, and a strong dedication to detail.
We treat every project — whether a single front entry door or a whole-home trim upgrade — as an opportunity to showcase what careful carpentry can achieve. Our goal is to leave homeowners with a finished product that enhances both the look and the comfort of their living spaces.
Key Benefits of Working With AW Door and Trim Design
Craftsmanship You Can See
From the first cut to the final reveal, we focus on visible quality. Our doors close smoothly, hinges align cleanly, and trim joints stay tight for years. Every project is built to last.
Honest Recommendations
We believe in giving homeowners straightforward advice. If a repair will solve your problem, we’ll let you know. If a replacement makes more sense, we’ll explain why. Our goal is always the best outcome for you, not just the quickest job for us.
Respect for Your Home
We know that having work done in your home can feel disruptive. That’s why we protect floors and walls, keep workspaces tidy, and clean thoroughly before we leave.
Local Commitment
As a Boise-based company, we are part of the community we serve. We take pride in improving homes in Boise, Eagle, Star, Garden City, and Meridian, and we value the trust our neighbors place in us.
Why Our Background Matters
Carpentry is a discipline that rewards patience and precision. Even the smallest errors, like an uneven hinge mortise or a poorly aligned trim joint, can result in functional problems or a lackluster finish. Our background as trained carpenters means we approach every job with the knowledge and foresight to avoid these issues.
Doors and trim often seem like small details in a home, yet they are among the most frequently used and most visible features. A front door that sticks, an interior door that rattles, or trim that pulls apart at the corners is frustrating and noticeable. Our expertise allows us to anticipate challenges — from uneven framing to out-of-square openings — and correct them before they affect the final result.
This attention to detail is what separates an average installation from a professional one. When a door swings effortlessly or trim lines up seamlessly, it creates a sense of quality that elevates the entire home.


How We Work
Our process is designed to make door and trim projects simple and stress-free. It begins with a conversation where we listen to your needs, goals, and preferences. From there, we measure carefully, inspect your home’s conditions, and recommend solutions that balance function, style, and budget.
Once work begins, we handle everything with professionalism. Old doors or trim are removed neatly. New units are installed with precision. Hardware is aligned correctly, and reveals are adjusted until they are consistent. For trim projects, corners are cut cleanly, joints are filled and sanded, and everything is left ready for painting or staining.
Throughout the process, we communicate clearly so you know exactly what to expect. We believe transparency builds trust, and trust is the foundation of a long-term relationship with our clients.
