Wood Beams

Wood beams

Beams that make a ceiling worth looking at.

A flat ceiling is the largest untouched surface in most rooms. Clad beams give it structure and shadow without the weight, the cost or the structural work that real timber would need. We build them in our own shop, cut to the angles measured on your ceiling, and our crew puts them up.

What we make

Beams, mantels and the details around them.

Ceiling beamsStraight runs, grids and intersections, cut to the real angles of a vaulted or sloped ceiling.
Faux box beamsLight clad structures in real veneer or solid stock. All the look, none of the load.
Coffered ceilingsBeams laid out as a grid, with the panel field between them finished to match.
Mantels and shelvesA single floating piece over a fireplace or under a television, in the same species as the room.
Boxing in structureDucts, conduit and existing beam pockets clad so they read as a design choice.
Trim and transitionsReveals, shadow gaps and the junctions where the ceiling meets a panelled wall.

Questions

Beam FAQ.

Are these real solid beams?

They are clad beams: a light hollow structure faced in real wood veneer or solid stock. That keeps the weight off your ceiling and lets us run a beam far longer than a solid timber would allow.

Can you match beams to my floor or cabinetry?

Yes. Send a sample or a photo and we match the species, stain and sheen in the shop, then send a sample back before production.

Will they hold anything?

A clad beam is decorative on its own. If you need to hang a fan, a light or a curtain track, tell us at the drawing stage and we build a fixing point into the structure.

What about a sloped or vaulted ceiling?

That is most of what we do. Every beam is cut to the actual angle measured on site, not to the angle on the plan.

Can beams hide wiring or ductwork?

Often yes. A clad beam is a good way to box in a beam pocket, a duct run or conduit that cannot be moved.

Do you install?

Our crew installs across Los Angeles County, Ventura County and parts of Orange County. Elsewhere we ship the sections ready to mount.
