Planed eased

At Southern Timber we carry a range of planed and treated redwood with eased edges – we often refer to this as 4RC (four round corners). We mainly use quality redwood timber to produce these timbers which are primarily intended for balustrading, pergola and gazebo construction. Larger 150mm section posts are machined from imported European whitewood.

The ex 38mm x 38mm planed timbers are ideal for spindles, and they are normally supplied in 3.6 metre or 3.9 metre lengths. Finished sizes are approx. 32mm x 32mm and is the same thickness as our popular premier deckboards and can be used for decorative effect in a deck surface.

Our ex 38mm x 125mm smooth board is used primarily as a smooth deckboard but can be utilised as a handrail over the top of our ex-100mm planed posts. It can also be used to frame grooved decking areas, or for the edges on multi-level decks to emphasise the change in height.

Planed posts can be made by cutting our long lengths of planed eased edge square section timbers. The ex-75mm x 75mm makes an attractive posts for trellis & lattice panels but is slightly too narrow for the rebated hand & base rails. Our 100mm x 100mm sections are popular for the rebated hand & base rails, for pergolas and elevated deck supports. The 150mm planed timbers were introduced in 2008 to satisfy the requests for smooth posts on balconies, first floor decks and larger pergolas. This large section is machined from imported whitewood.
