Timber Merchants. Falkirk Wood
supply Scottish hardwood boards for furniture making, interior and
exterior joinery, carving and turnery. They hold a variety of Scottish
hardwoods in stock, including oak, elm, sycamore, ash, lime and beech. The wood is full of character and is ideal for feature pieces where the natural beauty of timber can be seen and
best appreciated.
Planks are sawn through and through and are available
in 32mm, 45mm, and 58mm thicknesses. A variety of thicker
sections are also available, although these are not generally kiln dried.
Flooring, Mouldings and Decking. Falkirk
Wood produces hardwood flooring and mouldings, and oak decking.
Flooring is available in beech, elm, ash, sycamore and oak.
Scottish timber produces flooring which is full of colour and character. Boards are 83mm wide, 23mm thick, random length and tongue and grooved.
A wide range of skirtings, door surrounds and other mouldings can be produced, using any type of wood in stock.
Oak heartwood is used for decking due to its natural durability, i.e.
resistance to rotting. Untreated, it weathers to a silver-grey colour;
alternatively, it can be oiled to retain the original honey colour.
Boards are 94mm wide with bevels and no grooves. Other widths can be
manufactured, provided suitable stock is available.
