All our oak beam shelves are handcrafted from solid oak. The timber is air dried and will display its own natural characteristics. Once installed in your home, the beam will continue to dry out as it settles into your environment and may develop small cracks and splits along its length. This is completely normal for a solid oak beam, it is part of the natural character of the wood and is not classed as a defect. Every beam in our Rustic range is well dried, so any movement is kept to a minimum. If you would prefer a beam that moves less and stays more stable, please take a look at our Modern range, which is made from kiln dried timber.

Concealed keyhole fixings are supplied with every beam shelf, routed into the back of the beam before it leaves our workshop, so once mounted the shelf sits flush to the wall with no visible screws. A full wall fixing kit of screws and plugs is included, along with step by step fitting instructions. As solid oak beams and corbels are heavy, especially at the longer lengths, we recommend fixing to a solid masonry wall for the strongest and safest hold. Fitting to a stud wall is possible where the fixings are secured into the timber uprights. Please ensure your shelf is installed by a competent person or professional.

If you need a size outside 70cm to 180cm, contact us and we can make one to your exact measurement.

Oak is a combustible material, so it should be positioned a safe distance from stoves and installed in line with HETAS regulations.
