Berkeley Mills builds custom contemporary furniture, kitchens, doors and architectural woodwork at 2830 7th Street in Berkeley, California, where the showroom and the working workshop occupy the same site — the company offers shop tours and publishes shop videos showing how the work is made. Published range covers custom contemporary kitchens, entry and architectural doors, furniture for living, bedroom, dining and office, millwork, vanities, bookcases, and outdoor gates and fences.
Work is specified rather than picked off a shelf: customers select wood species, upholstery fabric or leather, hardware and finish. Standard species are cherry, Honduras mahogany and maple, with wenge, bubinga, birdseye maple, quilted maple, figured cherry, sapele pomele and ebony available by special order. Finishing is done by their own crew.
The company's recent history is material to any listing decision. Berkeley Mills announced closure in July 2025 after 37 years, citing high costs and low margins, and filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in August 2025. It reopened after two longtime clients invested, with co-founder Gene Agress returning to lead and 11 of 30 laid-off employees rehired; Berkeleyside reported the reopening on 2026-05-04, noting the shop had quietly been open for roughly five months.
Lead times, price band, service area and founding year are not published on the company's own site and are left empty.
