That revolution is part of Masonite, it is how we are changing the way people thinkabout doors and making everyone see that doors are not about keeping people out, they are about letting people in. At Masonite, we keep our doors open to new perspectives, new voices, and new opportunities. We break down barriers and we help people walk throughwalls.
