Species | Mixed Species. May include Pine, Fir, Spruce, Douglas Fir, Larch, Oak, Elm, Hickory, Ash, Maple, Beech, Poplar, Cedar, others. Typically heavy to softwoods. |
Source | Barns, corncribs, stables, mills, homes and other buildings and agricultural/industrial/construction structures and materials from different locations in North America |

Knots | Unlimited knots; some tight, some fallen out |
Checking/Cracks | Unlimited as long as board is sound |
Grain Pattern | Mixed |
Moisture Content/Stability | Air-Dried. Barnwood is generally more stable and less prone to shrinkage than is green lumber. |

Weight | Depending on species mix. Typically, approximately 2.5 pounds per board foot |
Surfacing | Painted and Weathered; Painted Barnwood may include material which was originally roughsawn and material which was originally planed smooth. One of the unique features of Barnwood is the range of textures found therein. The surfacing and texture of different barnwood sources may vary widely. |
Color/Appearance | Weathered (degree of weathering varies); Trestlewood's Painted Barnwood is sorted into solid red, flaky red, solid white and flaky white sorts. One of the unique features of barnwood is the variety of colors found therein. Most boards will have two or more shades of colors where the barnwood weathered at different rates. As a result, Trestlewood generally does not offer a color sort which does not allow for some latitude in color provided. |
Appearance Variation | Boards can vary in appearance from piece to piece and even within a piece. The characteristics described on this specification sheet generally apply to each board's featured face. The opposite face and edges can differ from the featured face in texture, coloring, and other characteristics unless otherwise noted. Weathered lumber / barnwood will have at least one weathered face. The opposite face and edges can be any combination of weathered and fresh-sawn. If weathered, the weathering will often be different (amount, mix of colors, etc) than on the featured face. Trestlewood sometimes uses one or more juicing processes to help fresh-sawn and/or less weathered/aged faces/edges blend in with weathered faces/edges. All else being equal, juicing is more likely to be used in situations where (a) lumber is cut from timbers or wider lumber (thereby creating fresh-cut faces and/or edges); (b) Buyer wants all (or most) faces/edges to be weathered/aged; (c) Buyer desires to increase the consistency of the weathered/aged look from face to face; and/or (d) Buyer wants a darker weathered look. |
Lead-Based Paint | Painted Barnwood may have originally been painted with lead-based paint. Trestlewood does not test for lead content and sells this product as-is. Buyer understands that it must determine which uses are appropriate for this product. |
Other | Barnwood can be brittle and split easily. Special care, such as pre-drilling holes for nails, is advisable. |
