Introducing Our New Non-Combustible Beams: Safe and Beautiful

Are you looking for a safer alternative to regular wooden beams?

Traditional Beams recently introduced two fantastic products to our range: aged non combustible beams, and reclaimed non-combustible beams.  Available in three colours, oak, black and walnut, they closely resemble real timber.

As our name suggests, we are specialists in fireplace beams, which are highly popular due to their natural beauty and quality. However, we appreciate that with stricter fire safety regulations, some solid fuel stoves and open fires which could benefit from traditional beams won’t be suitable. That’s where our non- combustible beams come in!

Replicating the natural beauty of reclaimed and aged oak, these fire-resistant beams are the ideal solution for those who can not achieve the distance required for solid oak beams.

Why Choose our Non-Combustible Aged Oak Beams?

One of the biggest challenges in finding a non-combustible fireplace beam is maintaining the authentic look and feel of natural wood. You want them to have the character and richness of genuine oak beams. 

At Traditional Beams, we have spent years perfecting the look of our solid rustic oak beams and have encaptured this in our Aged Non-Combustible Beam. From the intricate grain patterns to the beautifully aged texture, our beams are indistinguishable from traditional oak mantels.

Whether you’re renovating a period property, decorating a modern living space, or upgrading your fireplace, our handcrafted beams offer the perfect combination of style, practicality and fire safety.

How Our Aged Non-Combustible Beams Are Made

Our meticulous crafting process is what sets our beams apart. Every step is designed to ensure exceptional realism and superior quality.

1. Hand-Selecting a Premium Beam

To achieve the most authentic look possible, we start by choosing a beautifully air-dried solid oak beam. This serves as the original template for our non-combustible version, allowing us to replicate every natural feature in the final product.

2. Expert Craftsmanship and Detailing

In our North Yorkshire workshop, our skilled craftsmen hand-finish the beam by shaping, refining and texturing it to bring out its natural character. The result, a beautifully authentic textured oak beam with heaps of character.

3. Casting in Non-Combustible Materials

Once the beam has been perfectly shaped, we cast it using advanced fire-resistant materials. This ensures that while the beam looks identical to oak, it is completely non-combustible, making it safe for use around fireplaces and stoves.

4. Applying a High-Quality Wood Finish

To complete the process, we apply a high-quality finish that resembles the natural wood colour and grain. This ensures that every beam has the rich, warm tones of real aged oak. Your beams will look incredibly realistic, to the point where it’s near-on impossible to distinguish it from actual timber. 

Why Choose a Non-Combustible Beam?

Choosing a fire-resistant mantel is not just about safety—it’s about investing in a product that looks incredible, and requires minimal maintenance.
