Shoji screens built in Beech to span an opening 114-3/4" wide. They will be installed with floor tracking so all three screens will stack left or right in the opening.

The shoji screens are 82" tall. Elvis stepped in for scale, he is 6 ft. tall.
Below is a picture of the door pull recess milled into the shoji door stile.

Beech shoji screens with K14 for an upper floor wall window. You can just see the locking screws in the top rail of the shoji which will keep the shoji from being knocked out. Door pull recesses were milled into the shoji stile. Close up picture below. There's a trim package with this order, not pictured.

Client Install

 

Thanks to our client for pictures of their bathroom shoji installed.
Three shoji on three channel tracking so all can slide to one side or the other. I thought they did a lovely job on the design of this small bathroom.

Client Install

 

Maple shoji screens for a tatami room. This was a tricky install due to the beam across the ceiling. The contractor installed a header and frame work to support the weight of the shoji. We made each pair of shoji a slightly different width so they would line up well with the shelving vertical dividers. 

Duncan

Shoji screens built in Beech with white Warlon insert material. These are installed in tracks in front of window walls and a sliding glass door. There are 17 shoji doors in all so we didn't have the room to lay them out for a picture. You can see the stack below.

 

The shoji doors installed with upper wood tracking and bottom rail door rollers with floor channel from Sugatsune. 

The shoji needed to go to Idaho and since crating this many shoji takes alot of material and effort, we delivered. We needed a break from the shop anyway. Ed built a surround in the back of the van so we could stack them securely and be sure they'd stay in place. Our clients graciously let us stay with them and took good care of us.
We must have been tired since we both totally forgot to get a picture.

Buch

Shoji screens built in Beech with Beech lower door panels and 1 mm White Warlon. This stack of 8 shoji - two are already packaged - will be used to close off the patio sliding glass doors. Elvis stepped in for scale, he is 6 feet tall.

There are also 4 shoji screens for the closet areas.

Below instead of inlaid door pulls Ed cut them into the stiles.

The shoji screens were packaged two together and loaded into crates.
That makes it easier to handle once delivered.
Crates shown below, the reason they are so expensive to build-
they need to be stout to protect the shoji in transit.

 Beech shoji screens to span a 144-1/2" doorway, sliding into a double pocket when open.

We only had room to set up two of the doors. These will be joined to make one large shoji.

Each pair of shoji will be joined to function as one sliding door using the hardware pictured above. The picture below is of the joinery strap at the top of the shoji. These pictures are from a different order which is why the wood (Cherry not Beech) is different. Client has their own tracking. Pictures of Rockridge on the portfolio page.
