Project Description
Hand selected for eye-popping curl or lace grain; our inventory of 1×6 figured mahogany lumber is sure to make a statement. It would make great gate or door material, trim, desk…heck make a deck out of it. This incredible material is affordable and makes quite the statement no matter how you choose to use it. The Lumber Baron is proud to be a stocking dealer of Genuine Mahogany 1×6 (full 3/4″ x 5 1/2″) decking and fencing.
Genuine Mahogany is a great alternative to more commonly known, IPE. You will find Genuine Mahogany much easier to work with then it’s IPE counterpart. For a DYIer, that means easier cuts, reduced wear on yourself and your tools, and less effort spent pre-drilling holes. For a contractor familiar with IPE, after your first cut, you’ll appreciate the difference.
All of the Genuine Mahogany we sell at The Lumber Baron is sustainable. Genuine Fijian Mahogany is plantation grown, similar to a crop of wheat, and is a renewable resource. “Minimal impact logging” is the practice, a concept where the least amount of damage possible occurs to the surrounding areas. So many hardwoods on the lumber market have iffy origins and cutting practices. It is truly refreshing to find a beautiful, sustainable product that will help the Fijian economy and community grow!
Our Figured Genuine Mahogany lumber is also W.U.I. (Wildland Urban Interface) Compliant, meeting California’s fire code requirements for exterior construction within Wildland-Urban Interface (W.U.I) areas.
