Building legacy since 2013.

Yellow Door Inc began with one small renovation and has since grown to over 90+ projects ranging from residential new construction development to commercial renovations. Yellow Door’s signature contemporary style continues to evolve bringing a fresh new look throughout the Midwest and beyond. Yellow Door works with clients to build a balance of ‘what you want’ + ‘what you need’ in each space.

To see Yellow Door’s work in action, head on over to their newest development, The Tower Square Art District. These 13 unique new construction Signature Homes are being built in the same neighborhood where founder, Anthony Franks, spent his childhood. Yellow Door personally is committed to seeing this neighborhood flourish into the most fun place to live in Southern Illinois. Proximity is priceless; walking distance to the historic clock tower, coffee shops, shopping, restaurants, night life, shows, cafes, library, historic homes, and more. From its use of green space, the integration of local artistic masterpieces in each home, to fresh new sidewalks- Yellow Door will leave no stone untouched to see their vision to fruition.

A true family business, Yellow Door Inc. continues to dream of life’s possibilities conquering barrier after barrier in the name of growth and prosperity. Yellow Door expands with its imagination for visualizing what’s to come. Anthony believes spaces are meant to be as unique as the people living in them; no two created the exact same. Yellow Door Inc. has a vision for building new and restoring older homes throughout the Southern Illinois area and beyond.

& CEO

Anthony Franks

Anthony is an artist in every aspect of the word. He sees homes as a work of art in which people live. When he is not on the job site general contracting, Anthony is sketching floor plans and imagining creative color pallet combinations. From breaking ground to selecting light fixtures, Anthony aims to build timeless masterpieces. Anthony credits his father, Sonny Franks, for teaching him the construction ropes as a child and always being willing to lend his expertise and creativity.

Padra Franks

Padra leads the administrative team ensuring I’s are dotted and T’s are crossed. She engages clients in a memorable and professional experience. Padra aims to create an excellent network of communication throughout each home build experience.

FAMILY LEGACY

Padra and Anthony both enjoy bringing their Yellow Door Signature Homes to life. In between design and construction, Anthony and Padra spend as much quality as possible with their two children, Amiah and Felix. Anthony and Padra both spent their childhoods in Southern Illinois and enjoy giving their kids a similar experience as they received: riding bikes, playing outside, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.
