An archive of authentic antique wooden doors.
Every antique door is solid, reclaimed timber, carved, weathered, and chosen by hand.
History, reclaimed with care.
At Ancient Surfaces, we are committed to preserving the elegance and history of architectural antiquity. We carefully reclaim and meticulously restore antique wooden doors, transforming centuries-old double doors, glazed doors and louvered shutters into statement pieces that bring timeless presence and character to homes and interiors.
Our artisans specialize in reclaimed antique doors — from hand-carved Mediterranean double doors and wrought-iron glazed doors to raw-wood panelled doors, chippy-paint doors and abajour louvered shutters. Each antique door is cleaned, stabilised and conserved with precision and respect for its original patina. The result is not merely a product, but a piece of history reborn with new purpose.
Ancient Surfaces has been featured on the front covers of Architectural Digest in May 2011 and LUX Magazine in November 2012, reflecting our reputation for antique doors and architectural antiques within the global design landscape.
We supply antique doors to private residences across Manhattan, Jersey City, Newark, and nationwide projects seeking historical elegance. Each reclaimed door tells a story, and through careful restoration those stories become part of contemporary life.
Restraint, always.
We do not over-restore. We do not reproduce. We never sell a reproduction antique door. Every reclaimed door is genuine, one-of-a-kind and hand-selected — the collection grows slowly, and intentionally.
