Custom moulding from Johnson Brothers adds character, architectural definition, and a signature finish. It sets your project apart, from refined simplicity to bold, detailed design.

Why Custom Moulding Matters

Off-the-shelf moulding rarely captures the unique proportions or personality of a well-designed space. Our custom profiles, from baseboards and casings to crown moulding and trim details, are precision-crafted to your specifications.

For remodels and restorations, we can also replicate existing or historical trim, allowing your project to maintain its original charm while achieving a fresh, updated look.

From Idaho to Utah, Montana, Wyoming, and Nevada, our millwork experts supply builders, remodelers, and architects with moulding that’s built to perform beautifully in every environment. Whether you’re outfitting a luxury mountain retreat, a modern farmhouse, or a high-traffic commercial property, our mouldings deliver strength, style, and consistency.

Materials and Craftsmanship

Every piece begins with quality material, from rich hardwoods and durable softwoods to versatile MDF and composite options. Choose from stain-grade or paint-grade finishes to match your design vision. Our experienced team mills each order with precision, ensuring beauty that lasts for years to come.

We partner closely with homeowners, designers, contractors, and architects to make sure every detail comes together. From selecting profiles and finishes to coordinating installation, Johnson Brothers guides your project every step of the way, helping you turn design inspiration into reality.

You don’t stay in business for 120 years without doing a lot of things right. Since 1905, we’ve been a cornerstone of the Idaho Falls business community — adapting, growing, and thriving through generations of innovation and hard work.

What began as a family-owned residential construction business with its own planing mill has evolved into a dynamic architectural supply company with services that span doors, windows, millwork, commercial casework, architectural hardware, door fabrication, and more. With locations in Boise and Idaho Falls, Johnson Brothers now operates as a trusted distributor of premium building products such as Marvin Windows and Doors, Andersen Windows and Doors, TruStile Doors, Baldwin door hardware and is a problem-solving hub for contractors, homeowners, and builders across the Intermountain West.

At the heart of the company’s enduring success is our people. With more than 70 current employees and an average tenure of more than 15 years, our depth of experience and dedication to quality craftsmanship is unmatched. “I’ve always said the success of Johnson Brothers is due to our employees,” said co-owner Chris Sargis. “Their talent and commitment are the reasons we’re still thriving after 120 years.”

Over the decades we’ve weathered economic downturns, fires, and industry shifts — each time emerging stronger and more innovative. From building the Butte County Courthouse in 1916 to supplying millwork for high-profile projects like the Jackson Hole Airport, Melaleuca Corporate Office, Idaho Falls Police Department and the Mountain America Event Center. Headquartered in Idaho Falls, Johnson Brothers continues to leave its mark across the region.

Now in our fifth generation of family leadership, we remain committed to the values that built this legacy: craftsmanship, integrity, and service. As we look toward the future, one thing is clear: Johnson Brothers’ roots run deep, and our dedication to quality will continue to shape communities for generations to come.

The Power of the Perfect Door

Exterior door,

The Power of the Perfect Door

You only get to make one first impression, the same goes for your home. Your front door sets the tone for everything that your guests see afterward. So it has an outsize role in representing your sense of style and taste.

Whether you’re building, remodeling, or simply updating your entry, customizing your exterior doors can enhance the beauty and functionality of your home.

Customization: The Finishing Touch

One of the easiest ways to ensure that your home’s entryway is as unique as you are is by opting for a custom-made door. Johnson Brothers offers a wide range of customizable options to help you create the perfect front door for your home. Some of the choices you can consider include:

  • Color: From bold and striking hues to more understated tones, your door’s color can make a huge impact on the overall look of your home.
  • Material: Whether you prefer the timeless beauty of wood, the durability of metal, or the energy efficiency of fiberglass, we offer a variety of materials to suit your needs.
  • Windows: If you love a bright, airy home, consider an exterior door with windows. This not only floods your entryway with natural light but also creates a modern, welcoming look. For a more contemporary vibe, choose a series of panes.

Balancing Style and Functionality

While your front door is an expression of style, it also serves a crucial function: keeping the outside world out and protecting the inside of your home. When choosing your exterior door, it’s essential to strike the right balance between aesthetics and practicality. A well-constructed door will not only keep you safe but will also improve your home’s energy efficiency.

This home upgrade will have you beaming with pride

Wood beams, custom finish

This home upgrade will have you beaming with pride

If you’re looking for ideas to make your home stand out, decorative wood beams are a great way to add dimension and give your home a unique touch. They not only provide visual appeal, but also add a rustic charm that works with various architectural styles. And if you’re building from the ground up, you can easily plan to incorporate real wood beams.

Interior wood beams work particularly well in spaces with high or vaulted ceilings, homes with dark trim and flooring, and in rustic or modern designs. With Johnson Brothers, your options for decorative wooden beams are virtually endless. We offer a range of styles, species, colors, and accessories, ensuring you find the perfect fit for any project. Whether it’s a remodel or a new build, we’ll help you every step of the way.

When choosing real wood beams for your home, there are several species to consider, each offering varying levels of strength, cost, and availability. Popular choices include white pine, red and white oak, Douglas fir, cypress, and cedar. Douglas fir is renowned for its strength and durability while other species like white pine, cypress, and cedar can be more budget-friendly.

Solid beams and boxed beams each have distinct attributes. Solid wood beams deliver authenticity but can be quite heavy, salvaged beams bring a historic charm. For those looking for a lighter alternative, boxed wood beams made from three pieces of lumber reduce weight and cost. Boxed beams offer an affordable option for those who desire the look of real wood beams without the expense.

When it comes to finishing, natural wood beams can be stained, painted, or left in their raw form, depending on your style preference. For homeowners looking to add a little extra flair, beam accessories can include brackets, plates, straps, light fixtures, or even wooden shelves. These touches can elevate the look of your beams no matter the design aesthetic.

At Johnson Brothers, we offer a wide range of decorative wood beams and accessories, from solid wood beams to boxed beams. We pride ourselves on using sustainable foresting practices, thanks to our trusted suppliers like Disdero and Fypon.

If you’re in the market for decorative wood beams for your next home improvement project, our on-site mill allows us to custom-create any design, ensuring that your vision comes to life. Visit one of our showrooms or give us a call for more information on how to bring your dream beams to life.
