Most manufacturers only have standard stock items that often don&#8217;t seem to fit the bill perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>At Ekena Millwork we strive to be a full service, one-stop-shop manufacturer. From product concept to design, then fabrication to production, our team is dedicated to building the finest goods on the market; maximizing the value and efficiency of every product we make.<\/p>\n<p>Ekena introduced a new time-saving tool for contractors, architects, and builders alike with value-add deliverables that the industry hasn\u2019t had easy access to before. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekenamillwork.com\/default\/ekena-millwork-gbpalb-alberta-architectural-grade-pvc-gable-bracket-pediment.html\">online Product Designers<\/a> allow the user to draft a custom design online 24\/7. We\u2019re making custom orders standard and giving vendors the tools to be more successful.<\/p>\n<p>Not only does <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekenamillwork.com\/default\/\">Ekena Millwork<\/a> offer the largest collection of wood, metal and composite millwork in the country, but the capabilities and opportunity to order whatever product you need in any material, in every shape and size could save considerable time and money.<\/p>\n<p>The new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekenamillwork.com\/default\/olympic-architectural-grade-pvc-bracket.html\">PVC DESIGNER<\/a> is available for most every product category making it possible to design custom pediments, gable pediments and gable brackets, corbels, braces, brackets, outlookers, rafter tails, arches, trim, and even pilasters. The tool instantly delivers custom sizing, pricing, cad files, spec sheets and photo rendering; a complete deliverables package not available until now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEkena not only pushes the boundaries in the products we make, but we also want to set a new standard in the millwork industry for how products are ordered, purchased and shipped,\u201d says Director Daniel Milkie.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cThe customization of building materials like these has not been easily done without outdated time-consuming drawing and drafting techniques,\u201d added Milkie.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ekena developed the software in-house to render the product specs in real time to help save their vendors and contractors time and effort after taking inventory of their customers\u2019 wants and needs for quality custom building products. The online tool is simple to use and does all the calculating for the user. It allows for unique and specific variations to be made by offering options for custom widths, depths and heights; with open, closed or solid construction options.\u00a0 The combinations are endless and are really allowing designers, builders, architects, and lumber yards to offer truly signature pieces that can\u2019t be found elsewhere.\u00a0 Our goal is to offer not just a product, but a solution.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li
