Faux Wood L-Headers
L-headers, also referred to as 2-sided beams, are an exciting money-saver when you’re running beams from wall to wall. Put these beauties where the wall and the ceiling meet then space out 3-sided beams through the rest of your installation. We use the same plank stock to custom build all of our beams and mantles of a particular texture so you’re guaranteed a match.
Since these have a box-beam construction they are hollow they are excellent for hiding electrical or duct work. They are easy to cut. so adding lightweight accessories such as a vent or recessed light fixtures is simple.
