Los Angeles · Commercial millwork contractor
Commercial millwork in Los Angeles, from shop drawings to installation.
Custom wall panels, slat ceilings, reception desks and architectural woodwork for restaurants, offices, clinics, hospitality and multifamily interiors. Drawn, built in our Chatsworth shop and installed by our own crew.
Built for coordination
The millwork should not become the project inside the project.
The risk is rarely the wood itself. It is the coordination around walls that move, lighting that changes, approvals that arrive late and vendors who each own only one part of the result.
Element Decor, a family-owned architectural woodwork shop in Chatsworth since 2014, works as one trade. The shop that develops the drawings builds the work, dry fits it and installs it. Your team gets one accountable contact from scope review through closeout. Designers and contractors can open a trade account.

Commercial FAQ
Answers before you send the set.
Do you have a trade account?
Yes. Trade pricing is applied to every project once the account is approved. Designers, architects, general contractors and developers all qualify.
Can you work from a construction set?
Yes. We produce shop drawings from your elevations and issue them for mark up before anything is cut.
Who installs?
Our own crew across Southern California, the same people who dry fitted the work in the shop.
What happens if the building moves?
That is why the template is taken after framing and drywall rather than from the drawing set. Panels are cut to the wall that exists.
Can you phase a large floor?
Yes. Work is fabricated and labelled by location so it can be installed in the sequence the site needs.
Do you ship out of state?
Yes. Outside Southern California the work is built, dry fitted, labelled and crated with shop drawings for a local installer.
Start with what you have
Send the plans. We will define the millwork scope, price and next step.
Elevations, finish schedules, reference images or early design ideas are enough for an initial review.
