Rustic is making a major comeback, and we’re here for it. That’s why we’ve expanded our Rustic Knotty Alder Collection to include four new cabinet door styles: Mesa, Manhattan, Michigan, and Burlington. These additions bring more flexibility, more character, and more opportunity to create a space that feels warm, timeless, and uniquely yours.

Why Expand the Line?
This expansion is rooted in customer demand. After launching our Rustic Knotty Alder Collection, the response was overwhelmingly positive. Designers, builders, and homeowners alike were drawn to the natural beauty, visible knots, and warm color variations this species brings to the table.
To build on that success, our Product Development team selected four of our most popular door styles from other wood species and made them available in rustic alder. Each one was chosen for its proven appeal, unique look, and ability to complement a wide range of design styles.
Meet the New Door Styles
Mesa
A minimalist shaker-like door with slim lines and a beautiful, angled rout, giving it loads of dimension. Mesa is the go-to for transitional or modern rustic spaces.

Natural Texture, Built to Last
Each of these doors showcases the rich knots, mineral streaks, and grain movement that make rustic alder so desirable. It’s an excellent choice for homeowners looking to bring authenticity and natural texture into their kitchen, bath, or mudroom design, without going full farmhouse. No matter your design direction, rustic alder helps create a space that feels intentional and inviting.
