| We
are now fabricating our traditional style entryways from clear, kiln
dried western red cedar, although other materials are still considered.
All of the major components are fashioned from stock that has been
laminated for strength and stability. For instance, the two main posts
are 4 2x6's laminated together. The cross beams, the buttress beams,
the stretcher over the gate, all are of laminated stock. The three
roof poles are also laminated, then turned to round; very strong and
stable. These structures come with all pieces carefully
detailed and sanded. The two main posts, with their cross-beam components,
come pre-assembled. The rest of the pieces are pre-drilled where
needed. You pre-stain all the pieces, assemble the structure, and
stand in place. We supply all the fasteners needed. You usually
supply the roofing material. We also provide some good tips and
techniques, with photos, on how to complete this project.
