The APL Warehouse is open on Saturdays
from 9 a.m. to noon.

Your restoration isn't complete without the right moldings for door and window frames and baseboards. We have a good selection in lots of styles,
dating from the late 1800s to the early 1900s,
all very appropriate
for Allentown-area homes.
