Lamu doors have a history dating back around 1,000 years.

They are traditionally very large and heavy and are common in homes throughout Lamu and Zanzibar, even modest homes.

At Funzi Furniture we can make Lamu doors or any other custom doors to any size required, using wood from our extensive stock. Shown here is Sabine standing in front of a door installed in a Kenyan home.

Planning to build a home? We can produce unique handcrafted doors and provide a quotation.

From 3 metres by 3 metres down to small interior doors, we can make them all, including the traditional brass fittings.

Many of our craftsmen were originally trained in Lamu in the traditional construction of these doors.

We have shipped these doors worldwide.

From the biggest to the smallest.
