Frontier Barnboard Flooring is one of our more daring flooring products. Authentic barnwood is remanufactured to retain as much of the sawn and original weathered surface as possible while retaining the natural beauty and character of the wood. While barnwood is normally gray to light brown in color, a Frontier Barnboard Floor once finished usually darkens to a warm brown glow with mixed colors from tan to gray. This bold product offers another striking appearance to complete a magnificent home.

  • Specie: Any Softwood, usually Fir, Pine or Hemlock

  • Knots: Unlimited sound knots, some open knots allowed.
  • Holes: Random nail holes often with ferrous stains, bolt holes up to 3/4” diameter allowed.
  • Checks: Unlimited cracks and checks allowed; this product may have more through checks and cracks than most reclaimed floors. These checks and cracks are intended to be part of a finished floor.
  • Surface: Most of the surface area will have original saw-marks or weathering; the balance will be smooth, some evidence of previous use such as weathered dents and scratches. Some paint may remain on the surface (dut to the age of the wood any paint is assumed to contain lead and should be handled accordingly)

    Occasionally the thickness and widths must be adjusted slightly to accommodate the raw product.
The unique distinctiveness of a reclaimed wood product is generally what makes it so desirable. Although we may provide a sample, photograph or description of a particular type of wood product as an example to demonstrate the general characteristics of that type of product, such sample, photograph or description may not necessarily be representative of the product actually delivered due to the great variability in color, grain, texture, sign of previous use, etc.
