Engineered Redwood v Joinery Redwood?

Joinery redwood is an excellent product for making wooden gates providing a smooth paintable or stainable finish and although we have used it for many years new engineered timber is proving to be a far more superior product, premium engineered redwood products are crafted by bonding selected timber components into a single, solid section. This process eliminates common defects found in traditional timber, offering superior stability and a flawless appearance.

Engineered redwood does have visible finger jointing and butt jointing along the length but the benefits of this premium timber are far better in our opinion 

Key Benefits:

• 📏 Dimensional Stability: Minimal bowing or warping, ideal for wider and taller gates

• 🎨 Finish-Ready Faces: High-quality surfaces perfect for painting or staining

• 🏠 Versatile Use: Suitable for both internal and external projects 

Ideal Applications:

• Garden gates

• Doors 

• Driveway gates

• Decorative joinery
