Our Story
Let Us Hold
The Door For You.
The Door Stud is the original and first door installation tool that revolutionizes how builders install pre-hung and slab doors — a product line of Nodak Industries LLC.
Who We Are
Innovation, Built By The Trades.
The Door Stud® started with a real problem that every builder knows: hanging a door is a two-person job that shouldn't have to be. Leaning a 200-pound pre-hung door against a wall, hoping it doesn't scratch the floor, dent the casing, or fall — that's not a system. That's a hazard.
"Let us hold the door for you."
We built the Door Stud with industry professionals at the table from day one. The result is a product designed around the way trades actually work — not the way engineers imagine they do. Our team brings roughly 100 years of combined experience across building, design, and manufacturing. Every feature earns its place.
The Door Stud is a product line of Nodak Industries LLC, headquartered in Fargo, ND. We are SBA-certified, GSA-contracted, and built in the USA.
What Drives Us
Vision. Mission. Purpose.
We build innovative products and enriched experiences for the people who use them. These three principles are not slogans — they're the filter every product decision runs through.
