It is produced by resawing lumber at an angle to produce two pieces thicker on one edge than the other. The manufacturing process results in pieces with one face saw textured. The other face is smooth or saw textured depending on the grade and customer preference. Bevel siding is installed horizontally and gives an attractive shadow line which varies with the thickness of siding selected.
Bevel siding is available in clear and knotty grades.
Clear siding gives premium quality appearance and is ideal for prestigious, upmarket applications. Knotty siding has warmth and casual charm and is ideal for homes, cottages, club-houses and applications where a rustic appearance is desired. The precision-fitted joins are virtually invisible and stronger than the surrounding fiber. Builders appreciate both the convenient long length tally and the speed and ease of installation with fewer field joins.
