It really comes down to what you are looking for, budget, and how you install it.  Douglas fir, the stability is good if you install the right fit for your job.  Selecting the right profile for your environment, not running it to the ground (doing metal or stone on the bottom of the house is best with any wood product).  Douglas fir can be more rustic looking with more knots and they range in size.  Cedar has dimensional stability, longevity, resistant to decay and has natural properties that deter insects.  The knots in cedar are very tight. In extreme climates, acclimation and installation are crucial. Montana Timber Products helps by stabilizing any board wider than 6″ by doing relief cuts. Relief cuts (kerf cuts) are milled on the back of the siding and create air circulation.  In addition to relief cuts, Montana Timber Products uses SEAL-ONCE® to seal the entire board in a controlled environment to protect the wood from water damage.  Ask your sales representative for guidance to find what grade of wood and species best fit your needs.

Our ranchwood™, AquaFir™, ranchwood™ Artisan, ranchwood™ weathered, Charwood™, and Corral Board product lines offer a full selection of exterior and interior wood materials.  All products can be used for residential and commercial application.  Each product line is offered in two wood species, Douglas Fir and Cedar in various grades, talk to a Montana Timber Products representative to find out what fits your design and budget best.  Call 406-215-4961 for more information or fill out the contact form at:  http://www.montanatimberproducts.com/contact/.

What: Events venue

Product:  Montana Timber Products ranchwood™ in douglas fir, wire brush Southern and black exterior trim with wirebrush Southern interior.  Vertical shiplap siding 1×10 and horizontal shiplap 1×6, 2×2 Trim and 2×6 fascia.  Interior wainscoting shiplap is 1×10 with 1×6 baseboard and 1×3 trim on wainscoting.

This whimsical rustic venue with a modern flair used a mixture of three wood colors to attain the perfect look for hosting any special occasion.  The horizontal and vertical use of the boards give the exterior definition and depth, while the darker trim pieces allow for contrast in the design.  The primary siding color, Ranchwood™ Southern, keeps very true to the barn rustic theme siding gives the appearance of aged barnwood, giving the look of reclaimed barnwood through our flagship product, Ranchwood.  The wood is easy to maintain with the Seal Once protective coating.  The dark trim, AquaFir™ Black, brings in a modern country tone to keep the venue elegant.   The touch of light wood accents used to create barn doors accentuate the rustic exterior.  The prefinished shiplap siding shows the simplicity of the barn’s architecture be keeping it all one color and letting the trim be the accent and focal point.  

Outdoor weddings are very popular and this venue wanted to create a modern barn with farmhouse qualities to facilitate large groups.  Beautiful settings that provide indoor/outdoor areas create a challenge for any decorator and party planner.  Keeping the venue with a simple elegance in tones that would match any style was necessary. 

The use of the shiplap wainscoting lining the interior walls give something more than white paint, keeping with the farmhouse rustic look, but modern enough to be formal if the venue calls for a different style event.  The use of the same color as the exterior, Ranchwood Southern, keep the simplicity of the design with the 1×10 boards keeps with clean lines and elegance in the interior.  This allows the room to be dressed up or down with other décor used for each event.  Trimming the room with the wainscoting is a lower maintenance design than plastered walls.  In a commercial venue the amount of abuse to the walls is easily disguised by this rustic wood aesthetic. 

No venue is complete without a gorgeous dressing room.  The true simplicity of the wood accent wall framing the dressing space is something to remember.  When decorating, keeping it simple and following the theme of the architecture throughout is away to create balance and elegance without trying too hard.

All materials are pre-finished and come ready to install.  Montana Timber Products feature Seal-Once allowing the beauty of the natural wood to shine through while being protected from the elements.
