Hollow Box Beams

Like our Solid Core Beams, our Hollow Core Beams are all handcrafted individually and are truly a work of art. The boards used to create our box beams are also kiln dried to prevent them from twisting and curling. Since these boards are 1 inch thick they do not check and crack like our solid beams. However, by utilizing a unique miter joint we’re able to add our signature Cow Rub to the Beams. Unlike our solid beams and posts which are available up to 16′ in length, hollow box beams can be built up in much longer lengths in excess of 30′

Solid Beams

Our timbers are individually handcrafted in a variety of dimensions and lengths up to 16 ft. We kiln dry our timbers and posts so they are stable. The drying process also creates great checking and cracking which adds to the authenticity of these rustic pieces. They are used frequently for non-structural coffered ceilings, a variety of suspended beam designs, mantles, bars, rail, and stair treads. They are available with or without cow rub.

Seamless Miter Lock Joint

Our 4 sided Hollow Box Beams and our U-Beams feature a unique miter lock joint that allows for a seamless fit. This style of joint allows us to apply minute hints of our signature Cow Rub to the beams and still allow for little to no visibility of a joint in place, but still deliver a rustic looking beam.

When installing barnwood beams and posts in outdoor settings such as pergolas or patios, it’s crucial to consider additional sealing or treatments to enhance their durability against the elements. For best results, consult with a professional installer who has experience with outdoor wooden structures to ensure the beams are properly installed and sealed.

Maintaining the rustic charm of barnwood beams in high-traffic or exposed areas requires regular care. Be sure to periodically clean them using a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For areas exposed to outdoor elements, consider applying a weather-resistant finish every one to two years to protect against moisture and sunlight. Products containing UV inhibitors can be particularly effective in preventing fading. In high-traffic areas, use a durable, clear topcoat that resists wear to provide additional protection. 

Our beams undergo a meticulous kiln-drying process that significantly reduces the risk of insect infestation by removing moisture content that attracts pests. For projects requiring enhanced pest protection, we recommend additional treatments tailored to your environment.

    • Preparation: Measure the area where the shiplap will be installed to determine the number of planks needed. Store the shiplap planks in the installation area for at least 48 hours before installation to acclimate them to the room’s humidity.
    • Surface Preparation: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free of obstructions. Use a level to mark starting points and ensure straight installation lines.
    • Installation: Begin at the bottom of the wall, placing the first plank level and securing it with nails or screws at each stud. Use a nickel or similar spacer to create consistent gaps between planks if a traditional look is desired. Continue adding planks, checking each row for levelness. For vertical or diagonal installations, adjust starting points and angle cuts accordingly.
    • Finishing Touches: Trim any excess shiplap at edges and corners for a neat finish. Fill nail holes with wood filler if a seamless appearance is desired. Apply a final sealant for added protection, especially in high-moisture areas.
