Natural White Oak Box Beams
Natural white oak box beam showing open grain and an untreated tone

Real white oak. Nothing added.
White oak box beams, built to order in our Comstock Park shop and finished without stain or tint — just the wood. White oak is a dense, tight-grained hardwood known for its ray fleck and mineral streaking. Left natural, it reads in light tans and amber tones that shift across the grain and warm slightly as it ages.
Each beam is a hollow box built from solid white oak boards, precision-milled and mitered at the corners — the proportion of a structural timber, light enough to mount over a cleat. Built to your dimensions and delivered across West Michigan and beyond by freight or local drop-off.
Finish options
Natural / Unfinished — bare oak, ready for on-site sealing or color matching.
Matte Clear Coat — a clear matte coat that holds the wood’s native tone and stands up to everyday wear.
Suited to
Contemporary and minimalist interiors
Exposed-grain modern builds
Commercial spaces that want real hardwood overhead
Solid beam or box beam?
A box beam is built from solid boards into a hollow form with mitered corners. You get the full look and proportion of a solid timber at a fraction of the weight, which makes it far easier to handle and install.
Are these structural?
No. Our box beams are decorative and non-load-bearing. They wrap existing framing, posts, or structural members to get the look of solid timber without added construction.
How do they install?
Each beam slides over wood cleats or blocking fastened to your ceiling or wall. Because the beam is hollow, it suits remodels and retrofits with minimal structural work.
Where are they made?
Every beam is built to order in our Comstock Park shop in West Michigan.
Lead times
Most orders ship within 4–6 weeks after final color approval. Finish samples ship within 2 business days.
Shipping & returns
Full-size beams are too long for standard parcel carriers and ship by freight or local West Michigan delivery. Because each order is cut and finished to spec, custom orders are final sale.
Full-size box beams are not sold for direct online checkout — they are too long for standard parcel shipping. Order a physical sample to review the finish in your space, then request a custom quote sized to your project and delivery location.
