Deseret News's video segment "What's Behind Murphy Door?" took viewers inside the West Haven facility for one of the more complete visual tours of how a hidden door actually gets built — from rough panel to finished install. For most homeowners, this is the first time they've seen a manufacturing line for a product category they didn't know existed.
What we'd add to Deseret's coverage: the manufacturing decisions that make a flush-mount door look invisible aren't visible on the video tour. The hinge geometry, the panel-edge profiling, the finish coat that has to survive the install crew touching it — all of it had to be engineered before the first one shipped in 2012.
For Utah viewers who first saw Murphy Door through this Deseret feature, the press archive collects the rest of the regional and national coverage that built on this kind of behind-the-scenes look.
