In traditional Japanese architecture, A shji () is a door, window or room divider consisting of translucent paper over a frame of wood which holds together a lattice of wood or bamboo. While 'washi' is the traditional paper used, today, laminated materials and other more modern materials are used in today's shji. We specialize in building sliding shoji doors or screens to create separate partitions in a single space.

The doors slide in a top, bottom and side enclosure.
Each door moves either on a bottom track or hangs on a top rail, based on your preference.
The top track can be ceiling mounted, or can be suspended from an self supporting open header (transom) that allows ventilation above the screens.

We perform repairs on shoji screens if possible and feasible.
Most repairs involve replacing the broken "rice paper".
Note that we use a strong modern laminated material that requires to replace the old paper in the whole screen, not just a single square in the panel.
Also, most older plastics/papers have discolored over time.
They have become yellow and brittle.
If the material in one screen needs to be replaced, it typically cannot be color matched with the other panels.
In other words, to make all screens look uniform, you may have to replace the material in the other screens in addition.
