The install instructions PDF above is the document our installers work from, and it is the same one we send with an order. It covers the parts of a beam installation that decide whether the result looks right:
Mounting blocks — how the timber cleats that carry the beam are sized, spaced and fixed into joists or blocking, which is what actually holds the beam up.
Adhesive and fasteners — what to use, where, and how much.
Cutting and joining — polyurethane cuts like soft pine, so beams can be mitred, coped and butt-joined on site with standard woodworking tools.
Corners, ends and intersections — the joints that give a foam beam away when they are done badly.
Filling and touching up — closing seams and dealing with handling marks so the finish reads continuous.
If you would rather not do it yourself, we install throughout our service areas.
