HOLLOW BEAMS BUILT WITH RECLAIMED BARNWOOD
Original Rough Douglas Fir Box Beams
Fabricated from reclaimed Douglas fir planking and board stock, these box beams feature the original rough-sawn texture created during early milling and natural reddish-brown patina. Each beam contains antique character of reclaimed wood with a rough-sawn texture with light brush-sanding applied to the surface to remove dirt, dust, and splinters while leaving the texture and saw marks fully intact.
For projects incorporating ceiling decking alongside exposed beams, this product pairs seamlessly with our Original Rough Douglas Fir planking, available in a range of widths.
These beams are built to order in a wide range of sizes and configurations and, depending on available inventory, can often be paired with solid timbers of the same appearance to create a cohesive mix of box and solid beams within a single project.
How to order the right size for your project:
To ensure accurate quoting and a successful project, the most important step is determining whether your beams are purely decorative or wrapping existing framing. Please review the options below and let us know when inquiring.
Option 1: Built for decorative purposes only
If the box beam is purely aesthetic, we quote the size based on nominal exterior dimensions.
Information Needed to Provide Pricing:
- (A) Beam Width
- (B) Beam Height
- (C) Length of beam (rounded up to nearest foot)
- (D) Number of sides (2, 3, or 4)
- (E) Quantity (pricing is based on total volume of job)
Interior dimensions will vary based on material thickness and are not considered critical. Exterior dimensions are considered nominal unless specified as exact.
Option 2: Built to Cover Existing Framing
If the box beam is intended to cover over existing framing, the box beam will be built to provided interior dimensions (ID).
Information Needed to Provide Pricing:
- (A) Interior Width (including clearance)
- (B) Interior Height (including clearance)
- (C) Length (rounded up to nearest foot)
- (D) Number of sides (2, 3, or 4)
- (E) Quantity (pricing is based on total volume of job)
Exterior dimensions will vary based on material thickness and are considered “approximate” on the quote.
⚠️ Incorrect interior sizing can result in beams that do not fit. Please ensure dimensions provided to us include enough room to safely cover framing and must include a MINIMUM ¼″ of extra space in both width and height to allow for proper installation.
