Our brands

Three businesses that each stand on their own and work together on a door package.

Kolen Carpentry

Commercial carpentry and fit-out contractor to builders across South Australia.

Kolen Carpentry delivers the door package on a commercial project: leaves and frames, the hardware schedule, fire and acoustic compliance and the FF&E that goes in around them. Site crews work from the schedule and sign off every item, so progress and handover records are always in step with the job.

What Kolen Carpentry delivers

  • Doors and frames, supply and installation
  • Door hardware fitted per the hardware schedule, item by item
  • Fire and acoustic door compliance, recorded per opening
  • FF&E supply and installation
  • Fit-out carpentry on commercial projects
  • Service and defect work on completed projects

Sectors

Healthcare, defence, education, and government and commercial buildings.

Making Doors

A door manufacturer supplying builders, carpenters and Kolen's own crews.

Making Doors makes commercial door leaves to order. Timber doors are machined on CNC for hinges, locks and vision panels, and fire-rated and acoustic leaves are built to their rated specification. Every leaf is labelled with its door number before it leaves the factory, so it arrives on site ready to hang.

Door types

  • Solid-core timber doors, CNC machined
  • Fire-rated doors
  • Acoustic doors
  • Vision panels, grilles and hardware prep to the schedule

Made to the schedule

Send the door schedule and Making Doors manufactures against it: sizes, cores, ratings, hardware prep and door numbers. Builders and carpenters can order directly: email the schedule to info@makingdoors.com.au and you will get pricing and lead times back.

Supplying Hardware

Fixings and sundries for the trades.

Supplying Hardware keeps sites stocked. Fixings and fasteners, adhesives and sealants, and the sundries a crew burns through every week — supplied to Kolen Carpentry's projects and directly to other builders and carpenters, so nobody is off the tools waiting on a box of screws.

What Supplying Hardware supplies

  • Fixings and fasteners — screws, anchors, bolts
  • Adhesives, sealants and fillers
  • Tapes, blades and everyday site consumables
  • Sundries for carpentry and fit-out crews

Ordering

Email what the job needs to info@makingdoors.com.au and you will get pricing and availability back.

Working together

One schedule from the factory to the finished opening.

On projects where Kolen Carpentry holds the door package, Making Doors manufactures to the same schedule the crews install from, and Supplying Hardware keeps those crews in fixings and sundries. Door numbers, sizes and hardware prep line up on site, and one team is accountable for the result.
