In traditional Japanese architecture, A shji () is a door, window or room divider consisting of translucent paper over a frame of wood which holds together a lattice of wood or bamboo. While 'washi' is the traditional paper used, today, laminated materials and other more modern materials are used in today's shji.
We specialize in building sliding shoji doors or screens to create separate partitions in a single space. Here are some shoji door and screen designs we have made and others we can create for you. Our shoji screens, doors and panels are proudly custom made on the beautiful Island of Oahu in Hawaii.

We specialize in building sliding shoji doors or screens to create separate partitions in a single space. The doors slide in a top, bottom and side enclosure. Each door moves either on a bottom track or hangs on a top rail, based on your preference. The top track can be ceiling mounted, or can be suspended from an self supporting open header (transom) that allows ventilation above the screens.
We perform repairs on shoji screens if possible and feasible. Most repairs involve replacing the broken "rice paper". Note that we use a strong modern laminated material that requires to replace the old paper in the whole screen, not just a single square in the panel. Also, most older plastics/papers have discolored over time.

I wish I could give 6 stars! Shoji Hawaii installed doors to partition off a portion of our multi-purpose open-plan upstairs area for a guest room. We worried about the effect that partitioning might have on one of the room's main features, a ten-foot window with a view of the Ko'olau. We needn't have worried. The meticulously manufactured and drop-dead gorgeous sapele wood doors and header completely transformed the room. They exceeded my expectations, and my husband and I are very, very pleased with them. The Shoji Hawaii team is great to work with, friendly, and above all

Our master bath basin area had always been a part of the master bedroom in an alcove. During our recent renovations, we decided to close off the alcove with a set of sliding doors. After considering several options, we decided to call on Peter and Bob of Shoji Hawaii. I'm so glad we did! We are so happy with the beautiful cross hatch shoji doors. The doors, frame and ventilating header add a richness to the bedroom. The basin area is now screened off from the rest of the bedroom, and is now a private area for washing up and dressing. These craftsmen take pride in their work. The Philippine

We live on the mainland but have a condo in Honolulu.. Our shoji screen was in desperate need of repair or be replaced. We googled & found this company & took a leap of faith & had them replace our screens. I cannot begin to say how much we LOVE our new screens! They took great care in removing the old screens & expertly hung the new ones up on the existing rails. Thank you again guys!!
