Different Hardwoods & Softwoods For Joinery
FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What type of wood do you use on the windows?

    We typically used hardwoods such as Sapele due to its hard wearing nature & resistance to the elements.
    This commercially important hardwood is reminiscent of mahogany, and is a part of the same Meliaceae family. Typically used in the manufacture of furniture, joinery, veneers, luxury flooring, it is darker in tone and has a distinctive figure.

    Sapele is particularly prized for a lustrous iridescence with colors that range from light pink to brown and gold to red and has a high density of 640 kg/m3 along with an interlocked grain. Demand for sapele increased as a mahogany substitute in recent years due to genuine mahogany becoming a listed species.
