Abstract:
At 62, Morris Karpen retired from his custom-door business on Long Island and moved with his family to Weaverville in western North Carolina. Retirement bored him, so he started a little business making doors to custom specifications. Karpen Steel Products Co. lost $30,000 the first year. Six years later he was grossing $2 million. He estimates he has about a quarter of the nation's custom-door business.
