Alder
Alder is a western wood made common several years ago because of its similarity to Cherry once stained (especially in darker hues). Alder takes stain relatively evenly and is popular in both its clear and Rustic Knotty variety (we offer both). It is important to note that, while Alder stains nicely, it is a softer wood and will tend to resist wear less admirably than Hard Maple, Cherry or Red Oak. For this reason, many clients prefer to order Alder with our distressing option. When ordered in conjunction with glazing, the pings and dings work well to make Alder already appear ‘environmentally conditioned’ with the glaze hanging in the distressed areas. Due to its beautiful reddish color and nice grain pattern, Alder is a great choice for many kitchen and bath applications.

Cherry
Cherry, historically known as ‘the furniture makers wood’, combines a nice blend of pleasing wood grain and warm color. Almost any finish looks great on cherry as it takes stain evenly. Cherry is known for mid and darker tones, but lighter stain colors also look fantastic on Cherry. Be aware that Cherry will darken over time due to the affects of UV light. As a rule of thumb, any mid tone stain or darker will mask this affect, but if ordering any lighter tone stain or a natural finish, realize that the cabinets will be 2 or 3 shades darker after 6 months in your house. Don’t let this scare you as Cherry has always been a preferred wood for high end wood work and there is really no other wood at this price range that combines the warmth and texture that cherry provides.

Hard Maple
Hard Maple is a light colored wood with heavy density and is known for its ability to withstand abuse. Hard Maple takes light stains well and looks terrific with darker glazed combinations. Medium to dark stains with no glaze will tend to exhibit ‘ticking’, best described as dark flecks or patches where the dark stain penetrated the wood more heavily than it may have elsewhere on the door. While this is not unappealing, it can be more uneven in appearance and bears consideration when placing an order. Hard Maple may also exhibit some mineral streak (light to dark brown streaks running with the grain) up to about 3/8″ and possible pin knots (knots up to about 1/8″). These are naturally occurring in Hard Maple and are not considered defects.

Hickory
Hickory has long been a favorite for many people due to its wild light/dark grain, extremely hard and durable properties, and ‘Adirondack mountain house’ feel. While we don’t have any imagery of Hickory finishes, we can say that it stains very similarly to White Oak, so a quick glance at the images in the Quarter Sawn section will tell you if you might like Hickory. It does have an open grain much like Oak, but does not have the cathedral grain patterns that the Oak’s do.

Knotty Pine
Pine is a traditional soft wood that has been used for cabinets and furniture for centuries. It takes stain evenly and its somewhat knotty appearance lends a rustic charm to any setting. Pine is a very soft wood that does not hold up well to heavy abuse, so be mindful of this when you make your wood selection. It works very well with our distressing and glazing options to create a worn, aged look. These options also help to mask some of the natural pings and dings your pine project will encounter in your home!

Mahogany
Mahogany has a straight, fine, and even grain, and is relatively free of voids and pockets. Its reddish-brown color darkens over time, and displays a reddish sheen. It is very durable and also resists wood rot, making it attractive in boat construction and outdoor decking in addition to cabinetry.

Quarter Sawn
When you think of Quarter Sawn woods, think of Stickley Furniture and the Arts & Crafts style. Quarter Sawn is simply the way in which the log is cut to avoid the heavy cathedral grain common in the Oak woods. The result is a very straight grain and some added burl affect that gives the wood a unique character. Because Quarter Sawing a log results in a poor yield, it is a bit more than standard Red or White oak. The images here are all of Quarter Sawn White Oak. Quarter Sawn Red Oak will look the same in terms of grain, but the reddish/pink color of Red Oak will create a slightly reddish tint to the resulting stained cabinetry.

Red Birch
Red Birch is a gorgeous wood that comes from the darker heartwood of a white birch tree. While more expensive than other wood options, this wood’s color is so beautiful that 99% of our orders for red birch use a clear finish, so it will look like the door image shown here.

Red Oak
Red Oak is a traditional wood known for its heavy graining and large, arching grain pattern. Popular in the 70’s and 80’s, Oak is rarely used in today’s kitchen and bath marketplace, but this is unfortunate as it is a hearty wood that handles abuse well, stains nicely and is very economical. Consider Red Oak with a medium toned reddish brown stain and a glaze and see how beautiful it looks! If the traditional arched grain patterns do not appeal to you, consider quarter sawn oak available at an upcharge.

Soft Maple
Soft Maple is less dense than Hard Maple with similar grain and figure. The sapwood in the soft maples is considerably wider than that in the hard maples and has a lighter heartwood color and this wood tends to be have a more "tan" or "grey" appearance than Hard Maple. Soft maple is used for furniture, kitchen cabinets, doors, musical instruments, turnings and millwork. It is lower-priced than Hard Maple and sometimes used as a substitute in order to save money on a project. Be aware that some accessories for your kitchen may not be available in soft maple in which case, Hard Maple can be used as a surrogate.

Walnut
Walnut is a dark, chocolate brown wood that is masculine and very beautiful even in its natural, unstained form. Walnut wears well and mellows nicely with age. It can exhibit fairly dramatic grain and coloration differences featuring dark brown bands and blonde areas all in the same door. Due to this inherent character, if you are looking for a simple, clean wood, Walnut is not for you. But, if you love a lively wood and are thinking of doing darker cabinets anyway, it’s a great choice.

White Birch
White Birch is similar in grain and coloration to Hard Maple, but takes stain a little more evenly. It looks great in lighter and mid toned finishes and wears well as it is fairly hard. Costing more than hard maple and looking quite similar, there is generally no reason to choose White Birch unless matching existing White Birch cabinetry or furniture in your home.

White Oak
