WELCOME TO PORTALAIS

Full Service Door & Window Supplier

WHAT WE DO

We work with Homeowners, Architects, Designers and their Builders to provide the highest quality materials and services for any given project.

Founded in 2000, Portalais began by importing custom French architectural elements through exclusive sources for antique/reclaimed and authentic reproduction doors, and stone products. European period authenticity has always been key for those clients looking for the “truth” in their design.

Over the last twenty years, the company has evolved into a full service window and door supplier sourcing the highest quality products from both Europe and within the USA.

With a brand new design center in Santa Rosa, CA, they have customized their product offerings and finishes with full-range and exclusive custom products to serve the increasing demands for value as well as quality and beauty in today’s architectural designs.
