Our Story
The Wood Vault grew from KJP Select Hardwoods, a small, family-run business established in 2006.
The company expanded steadily over the years, launching its ecommerce store in 2018 and completing a major expansion in 2023 to support continued growth.
In 2026, the business rebranded as The Wood Vault, marking its next chapter.
Today, the company remains family-run - including Karen, the “K” in KJP, who is still part of the team after over 20 years.
