Western Species & Grades

Rustic Alder is used for rustic appearance components for interior doors, millwork, and furniture frames. This proprietary grade is pulled in conjunction with Premium 5-1/4″ and wider boards. This grade is a combination of Premium, Standard Frame and Econo/#3. It has 33-1/3% and better yield to structurally sound cuttings, with a minimum cutting size of 3″ x 2′. We grade after drying and surfacing, and against all natural drying or surfacing defects (pin knot no defect).
