Mike Riley is the genius behind the vision and innovations of Cape Cod Panel. He began framing in his late teens. Having spent his childhood visiting sites with his general contractor father, he was inspired by building at a young age.
Mike began his own framing crew in his early 20's, and has continued to innovate the process, always curious of new technologies available.
Mike can execute the most complicated designs, and his work can be enjoyed all over Cape Cod, from the most exclusive residential neighborhoods to stairs on the National Seashore.
He has been featured twice in This Old House, Andersen Windows Media and others.

Mark Henrichson has been framing for thirty years. Born and bred in Omaha, Nebraska, he mastered the art of rough framing, specializing in roofs.
He owned his own company in Nebraska, excelling in fast and proficient framing for residential and commercial builds. His techniques earned him publications on This Old House, The Build Show and Fine Home Building to name a few, as well as a large Instagram following.
Mark delivers quality framing with pride as owner, designer, shop and field management. When he isn’t framing, he is likely listening to a record from his epic vinyl collection.

Jonny Rathbun is as talented and dedicated as they come. He has been Mike’s right hand man since long before Cape Cod Panel began. Jonny is our lead designer, who is able to easily identify problems on our design software that would otherwise cause headaches, change orders, time and money in the field.
Jonny’s attention to detail and lifetime of framing experience lends itself to much of the success of what we do at Cape Cod Panel.

Innovation in Construction
Since 2016, Cape Cod Panel has set the standard for prefabricated wall panel systems across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and the greater New England construction market. Founded by seasoned framer Michael Riley, we began with a mission: to build framing systems faster, smarter, and stronger — without compromise. In 2024, Mark Henrichson became co-owner, refining the accelerated framing process with Mike.
Today, Cape Cod Panel delivers turn-key wall panel packages for both residential and commercial framing projects, by combining field-tested craftsmanship with precision automation.
Our panel systems are built in-house at our advanced wall shop, equipped with automated saws and precision CNC tooling. Using software and structural design systems, every wall is engineered to spec — complete with exterior sheathing, rough openings, blocking, and layout optimized for speed and accuracy.
Whether you’re a general contractor looking to frame faster, a developer scaling multifamily projects, or a custom builder trying to control labor and quality — Cape Cod Panel is your partner in smarter framing.
FAQ's
Wall panels reduce framing time by up to 60%, cut labor needs by 40–55%, and minimize material waste. They're pre-engineered, sheathed, and ready to install — helping GCs hit tighter timelines and reduce change orders.
While prefabricated wall panels may appear more expensive upfront, they deliver significant cost savings and value in the long run. When you work with Cape Cod Panel, you're investing in:
-
Faster build times (up to 60% faster than stick framing)
-
Fewer labor hours on-site — no cutting, measuring, or wrapping in the field
-
Precision-engineered walls that reduce mistakes and callbacks
-
Reduced waste and clean-up
-
Faster weather tight enclosures, allowing other trades to start sooner
Bottom line: Wall panels shift costs from the jobsite to the factory, where work is controlled, consistent, and efficient. GCs get tighter schedules, cleaner builds, and fewer headaches — which saves money where it counts.
-
Panels reduce framing time by up to 3x, helping GCs hit their milestones — or beat them. Because every wall is pre-sheathed, labeled, and delivered in sequence, framers can install faster with fewer crew members.
Bonus: Faster dry-in = earlier starts for plumbers, electricians, and HVAC — accelerating the entire build.
