Apple Door Systems
Apple Door was founded in 1973 by Hubert Apple, Jr. Originally, the firm began operating as an overhead door service company in Richmond, Virginia. In 1978, Hubert's son, Dan Apple, joined the firm and began expanding the company's focus to include sales and distribution of new doors and related products. During the years Apple Door has grown from Hubert's one man operation working out of his mobile home to Virginia's largest independent door dealer. By the mid 1980's Apple Door was the premier door company in Richmond. In 1989, the first satellite store was established in Waynesboro to serve the western part of the state. Today Apple Door stores are in Richmond, Chesapeake, Fredericksburg, Waynesboro and Williamsburg. In 1998 Apple Door Systems had the honor of becoming the first fully accredited door dealer in the United States. This distinction is symbolic of the company's high professional ethics and was granted by the Institute for Door Dealer Education and Accreditation.
