Conestoga Wood Celebrates 60 Years in the Kitchen and Bath Industry

East Earl, Pennsylvania - Conestoga Wood Specialties, a leading manufacturer of custom cabinet doors for the kitchen and bath industry, proudly commemorates six decades of innovation, craftsmanship, and unwavering dedication to quality. From modest beginnings to a nationally recognized corporation, Conestoga has stayed true to its core values of Integrity, Respect, Accountability, Resourcefulness, and Innovation.

In 1964, experienced cabinet makers Norman and Sam Hahn, from East Earl, Pennsylvania, founded Conestoga Wood Specialties, discovering their niche in creating raised panel doors not typically produced in small cabinet shops at the time. Working out of a small garage, the brothers began with 5 door styles in a couple of wood varieties. Currently, Conestoga offers over 1,000 door designs in nearly 30 wood species.

As the product line has expanded over the last 60 years, so have the manufacturing locations, which now include Beaver Springs, PA, Beavertown, PA, and Kenly, NC.

Over the years, Conestoga Wood has not only adapted to changing trends but has also invested in shaping them. From introducing innovative materials and technologies to the U.S. to collaborating with vendors and suppliers, Conestoga has remained at the forefront of the industry. And with a reputation of absolute dependability, customers can count on receiving a quality product by the date committed.

An organization is only as strong as its people, and Anthony Hahn, son of founder Norman Hahn and president of the company since 2003, recognizes that Conestoga Wood wouldn’t be where it is today without its incredible team of hard-working and dedicated employees, both past and present. He believes their commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction has been a driving force behind Conestoga’s success.

Looking to the future, Conestoga Wood remains committed to those founding principles of hard work and integrity as it continues to lead the way in the kitchen and bath industry, earning its place as a trusted name in kitchen design.

The day wraps up with a hands-on activity where all the children get to build their own cabinets to remember their day at Dura Supreme.

Employees and their families share the memories of this day for many years. "My kids are in their 30's and they still have the sweet little cabinet they built a 'few' years ago," shared Maria Dupont, professional Expediter for Dura Supreme Cabinetry. Another employee from the Dura Supreme Marketing Team, Mary Beth Decker said, "It's a very cool thing for the kids to be able to come and see first-hand what their parents and grandparents do every day at work."

These additions to the Showplace Cabinetry collection promise to redefine interior design possibilities and provide homeowners with even more choices for their dream spaces.

Aspen Door Style: Modern Elegance Redefined

The Aspen door style embodies contemporary elegance with its modern design and sleek ½-inch stiles and rails with mitered joints. Aspen showcases clean lines, a crisp profile, and a versatile appeal that suits a wide range of interior styles. Whether your vision is traditional, transitional, or contemporary, Aspen seamlessly blends into any design scheme. Its simplicity exudes sophistication, making it the perfect choice for those seeking an understated yet refined aesthetic.

Bree Door Style: Sleek with a Hint of Detail Mastery
