Who We Are
Manufacturing
Our company began in 1926 as a manufacturer of moulding and trim off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. Today, Metrie operates six domestic manufacturing facilities across the U.S. and Canada, producing millwork in a variety of premium wood substrates, prefinished colors & patterns and other value-added product solutions to service standard program or custom order profiles.
Operating our own mills allows us the flexibility to provide the right solutions at the right time to the markets we serve, understanding regional differences and adhering to strict specification standards.
Made to Measure™: In addition, we have the ability to research, design, test and produce exclusive profiles to satisfy a custom order or simply stay on top of the latest home trends.
Our history of manufacturing and distributing quality millwork for over nearly a century has led to us having one of the largest profile assortments available across both the U.S. and Canada. Our capabilities and distribution services allow us to make thousands of profile designs readily available to you. If your profile design is truly unique, our team of experts can work with you to craft a custom option.
MDF: State-of-the-art MDF mills are technologically advanced to produce premier mouldings and boards.
Douglas Fir: Known for its rich color and natural beauty, we source the best fiber of this premier softwood to manufacture fine mouldings and engineered door jambs.
Pacific Coast Hemlock: A highly versatile and stable, fine-grained softwood that accepts a full range of stains making it a great choice in mouldings, boards, door jambs, stair parts, and more.
Prefinished Wood: From faux wood finishes and textures to factory pre-painted and custom machining, prefinished products are ready to install for professional results every time.

Your customers often come to you with tight deadlines, and nothing can bring a project to a halt faster than quality issues. It not only takes time away from production, but can be costly in terms of rescheduling labor, freight and more. Our quality standards are among the highest in the industry to ensure that the products that leave our facilities live up to our commitments and exceed your expectations, every time. With full in-house CAD capabilities and computer-generated templates, we are able to manufacture profiles to extremely tight tolerances, ensuring product consistency and smoother installation so you can focus on what’s truly critical – the end result.
We built our business on making your business important. Our scale and distribution locations allow us to provide a premier service package of responsive quoting, order accuracy and on-time deliveries. We are focused on continuous improvement to assure that our systems are up-to-date to match the ever-changing nature of business operations.
With fine craftsmanship comes responsibility, and we are committed to being responsible stewards of our forest resources. Our mills are located close to their respective fiber sources to minimize the costs and environmental impacts of transportation, while ensuring that all raw materials are responsibly sourced. We strive to maximize the yield from every board, allowing us to source the highest quality materials and deliver them competitively priced. We also offer many products that qualify for LEED™ credits or carry sustainability certifications such as FSC® C081806 and PEFC/26-31-148. In addition, all of our mills operate using water-based, low VOC coatings and we have the ability to provide materials in compliance with NAF standards, so you can be confident that the products you purchase are produced with the same care and attention that you give your business or finished projects.
