	The Roddis Lumber and Veneer Company Guarantee

1908 - Roddis manufactures the first solid core door, almost an immediate success.

In 1908, within the new facilities the company produced the first solid core doors. The Roddis Company did not invent the flush door (a flat slab door) but was the first to recognize its potential and manufacture it on a large scale. The flush door was almost an immediate success as architects recognized its superiority for hotels, hospitals, schools, and apartment buildings. The Roddis Company made a national reputation on the excellence of its flush doors. It also made a fine reputation on its custom made plywood.
