Douglas Fir Rough Sawn Shasta Beams (BM105SHA)

E&K’s Douglas Fir Rough Sawn Shasta Beams present the structural side of Douglas Fir with broad faces, visible milling, and a material honesty that feels intentional rather than rustic. The Rough Sawn surface is pronounced allowing the material to read as timber first, finish second. Shasta is straightforward and grounded, suited to projects where scale and proportion do the visual work.

Shasta has dry tan, light saddle-brown, and sun-warmed fir tones, with noticeable face-to-face variation driven by saw texture and grain density rather than stain saturation. Character marks, mineral shadows, and growth rings remain visible, reinforcing a sense of mass and authenticity.

These beams perform especially well in large spaces, great rooms, covered patios, and open commercial ceilings, anywhere the beam profile is meant to read clearly from a distance. Shasta integrates naturally into industrial, rustic, and modern environments.

Shasta is available in any size, from long structural wraps to oversized statement beams and truss components. This product is ideal for projects that prioritize Rough Sawn texture, natural Douglas Fir grain, and a strong architectural footprint.

Rough Sawn Beams Detailed Specs

Rough Sawn beams carry the marks of their history. Crafted from authentic reclaimed wood, each beam tells a story. Sourced from older structures like barns, factories, and vintage buildings, they showcase an original patina and distinctive saw marks from their original milling. Left with their original face to highlight their natural beauty, the rough sawn boards have subtle variations in texture and tone. Compared to the Hand Hewn beams, our rough sawn beams are less rustic with a surface that allows for more consistant surface and stain finishes. The lighter-weight box beams combine the beauty of the original surface with the benefit of being lighter weight to ship and install. Use box beams as a new architectural design element or to cover existing elements or beams. E&K Rough Sawn Beams deliver the presence of true vintage timber while offering flexible customization for any project.

  • Box Joinery: In an ideal situation, we take a single solid Rough Sawn beam that is the size of the box beam we are making. We resaw the face and two sides from the solid beam and reassemble these skins with a miter joint. If we cannot make the size needed from a single solid beam, we will use pieces from multiple beams and will miter them together using our proprietary techniques that mean the finished beam will read as a solid beam.
  • Box Length Joint: Miter joint, Lock Miter joint.

  • Source: Reclaimed beams taken from barns and other old structures.
  • Colors: Natural wood colors found on exterior patina. Custom staining options are available to complement your design. Reclaimed wood beams offer natural variation creating depth, warmth, and visual interest that makes every installation feel unique and authentic. Because of this natural variation, colors and stains will differ from beam to beam and may not be an exact match to samples.
