We created the high quality, affordable closet doors we wanted in our own homes.

Dana Design closet doors are handmade using only the finest solid wood.

The Big Idea

When design/build partners Colin Sherman and Dave Rucker built their first high-end spec house together, they struggled to find closet doors that matched the warm, contemporary aesthetic they were looking for.

The solution? They designed their own. 

Dave and Colin’s innovative slatted design was a huge hit at the open house showings for that first spec house. Visitors loved the look and functionality of the closet doors and many asked where they could buy them for themselves. Colin and Dave went on to install the doors in future projects, where they received a similarly positive reception. 

Dave Rucker & Colin Sherman bring their design and build experience to Dana Design.

Design + Build

Colin and Dave each bring their own unique skill set to Dana Design. Dave is an accomplished builder with an engineering degree from UC Berkeley. Colin is an architect, furniture maker, and fine artist trained at Parsons School of Design. Their experience designing and building fine, new-construction contemporary homes has provided them with unique insight into the value of well-constructed, beautiful closet doors.

Now, with Dana Design, they are pleased to bring their sliding closet doors to a wider market.
