“A Touch of Class” is the mantra at Pleasure-Way motors, located in Saskatoon, Canada. For 30 years, Pleasure-Way motors has been producing luxurious, hand crafted, high quality recreational vehicles and Class B motorhomes.
One of the hallmarks of a Pleasure-Way van is the refined, custom cabinetry the company prides themselves on installing in each vehicle.
At the manufacturing facility in Saskatoon, custom cabinetry is created at their on-sight sawmill. It’s here that skilled crafts-people transform hardwood maple into exquisite fluted crown moldings and rail maple doors. Raw maple planks are placed through a rip saw to create individual strips of maple in exact widths that are required to make precise maple doors.
After the maple has been ripped, it is next placed into a molder, which shapes the pieces to the appropriate thickness and profile. Then, each piece is cut to the exact measurement required to each individual motorhome.
The maple strips are then run through a shaper to create the mortise and tendon joints. The strips are glued together by hand to form the door and are clamped until they have dried. Once the maple door has dried and passed through a quality inspection test, it is placed in a door sander to ensure its correct thickness.
In its final stage, the maple cabinet door is sanded, stained and lacquered by hand. Each door receives three coats of stain and two coats of lacquer. Pleasure-Way is committed to using exceptional products. All of their high quality stains and lacquers are water-based, which is better for the environment as well as for employees and consumers.
This handcrafted cabinetry is extremely time-consuming to create. On average, it takes over twenty-two hours to finish just one set of cabinet doors for each coach produced. Pleasure-Way motors believes that beautiful, handcrafted cabinetry is one of the company’s hallmarks.
