The Hand Hewn texture is well suited to spaces where a more aged, rustic, or traditional timber appearance is desired. Its pronounced surface markings and irregular wood character can complement farmhouse, lodge, rustic, Old World, and other interiors designed around the look of substantial handcrafted timbers.
Yes. This product is specifically offered as part of Tilton’s Quick-Ship selection, making it a better choice when the project cannot accommodate the typical production time of a made-to-order beam. Availability should still be confirmed when ordering, particularly for projects requiring multiple beams.
Rough Sawn beams reproduce the coarse saw marks associated with lumber that has been cut by a saw, giving the surface a pronounced linear texture. Hand Hewn beams instead recreate the irregular marks associated with timbers shaped by hand tools, resulting in a more distressed, hand-worked appearance.
Yes. Because these beams are made from high-density urethane rather than natural lumber, they are well suited for decorative use in rooms where humidity levels can fluctuate. The material provides the look of rough-sawn wood without the same concerns about swelling, shrinking, or seasonal movement associated with real wood.
No. The Rough Sawn Quick-Ship beam is not fire rated. If a project has specific fire-performance requirements, particularly in a commercial or code-regulated application, those requirements should be reviewed before choosing this beam.
