Douglas-fir post and beams, harvested in the rich timber areas of Oregon, Washington, and California, are available at Everhart Lumber Compan. Douglas-fir is the standard against which all other framing species are measured and is one of the few species available in large sizes from managed timberlands.

The company’s on-site mill cuts superior strength Douglas-fir post and beams that are highly sought by those looking for excellent dimensional stability and a straight and handsome grain pattern. When builders look for the best in structural lumber, their first choice is Douglas-fir, because of:

• Dimensionally stable
• Universally recognized superior strength-to-weight ratio
• High specific gravity, providing excellent nail and plate-holding ability
• Superior performance against strong forces resulting from natural phenomena such as winds, storms and earthquakes
• Ideal structural and general purpose wood for framing lumber in residential, light commercial, multistory and industrial construction
• Characteristics making it ideal for joinery: doors, millwork, window and door casings, mantels, stairs and baseboards
• When dry, Douglas-fir retains its shape and size and will not show a raised grain
• Valuable for its rustic beauty

Douglas-fir post and beams, in custom cut-to-order up to 36 feet, are available at Everhart's. Specialty orders can be filled for up to 50 feet. Beams can be rough-cut or surfaced. Delivery is within one week or less on most orders. Please call for price quote on these products.
