Murphy Door is an American manufacturer of hidden doors, Murphy beds, and furniture based in Ogden, Utah. Founded by Jeremy Barker in 2012, the company produces concealed door systems, custom furniture and storage solutions.

History

Murphy Door was founded in December 2012 by former firefighter Jeremy Barker, who developed the company’s first hidden door hinge system for a personal home project.[3][4][5]

The business started part-time, transitioned to online sales, and grew past $5 million in revenue by 2016, at which point Barker was able to focus on the business full-time.[2] In 2017, Murphy Door secured $1.25 million in growth financing from Decathlon Capital Partners.[6][7]

The company expanded during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, growing revenues from approximately $7 million to $20 million.[2] Growth continued, and in 2025 revenues were reported at nearly $60 million annually.[3][8]

The company has been featured on the Inc.5000 lists of the fast-growing private companies in America from 2019-2025.[9]

Murphy Door has collaborated with Lionsgate and Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building on the development of custom hidden door installations.[2] Murphy Door was named the 2022 Indoor Product of the Year by the National Association of Home Builders.[10]
