    Description

    Keep things afloat with our solid oak floating shelves

    Our solid oak floating shelves are handcrafted from the finest quality kiln dried European oak timber. The standard depths we supply are 6, 8, 10 and 12″ in a substantial 30-35mm thick. As with our fireplace beams we’re offering a large variety of colour options. We use only the finest wax polish’s and oils ensuring a top notch finish every time. Price per shelf.

    Solid oak floating shelves are mounted using Hafele’s concealed shelf supports which come free with your order. They are suitable for fixing to stone, brick, breeze block and stud walls where timber can be located. Professionally machined holes are drilled in the back of the shelves to accept the concealed supports. Each shelf comes with fitting instructions.

    We aim to manufacture our solid oak floating shelves to the highest possible standard. Some shelves will be manufactured from two or more boards to create the required depth. This does not detract from the overall quality and results in further stability.

    Now available in our premium range of colours for a deeper penetration into the wood and a longer lasting finish.

    Buy solid oak floating shelves from Traditional Beams

    We’re thrilled to launch our BRAND NEW stunning range of carefully selected colour finishes. Everything we manufacturer is professionally finished in-house using only the finest products. We achieve this fantastic range with wood stains which penetrate deep into the wood followed by a top coat of wax.

    Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee exact colour matches to existing furniture. Please use these colour samples as a guide only, as oak is a natural product colour variation can be expected.

    Pallet Deliveries (bricks, hearths, wood burning stoves)

    Once an order is received we will be in touch to arrange a delivery date in the next few days. If you have ordered several items we will combine the items on one consignment to save you additional delivery charges.

    We ship pallets through the Fortec Pallet network using their express service where possible. Some postcodes we may only be able to offer economy shipping.

    The courier is contracted to offer kerbside delivery only. The pallet will be off-loaded via tail lift, this can only be done if there is adequate access of at least 10m, sufficiently wide (2.8m min), free of obstacles and reasonably level. Pallet trucks cannot be operated on gravel or soft ground.

    It is very important that the goods are checked upon arrival and delivery paperwork signed.

    Structural Beams

    We always recommend getting in touch with us prior to ordering Structural Oak Beams. Due to the huge variation in delivery charges we quote delivery for each individual order. Depending on the size of the order we’ll aim to dispatch structural beam orders within 5-10 working days.

    We will work with our customers to try and find the most effective and affordable solution for your project. If it is clearly not feasible purchasing from us and there is a better option, we will let you know! For example: if you live in Wales and you wish to purchase a single 5m beam, we are most likely not going to be price competitive due to the delivery charges.

    Once an order has been placed and completed, we will e-mail photo’s of the completed order for your approval before delivery for your peace of mind.

    Depending on the size and quantity of beams we use a few specialist couriers in order to get you the best deal. We can deliver beams up to 6m in length anywhere in the UK at very competitive prices. Beams over 2.5m can’t be tail lifted off the wagon so offloading needs to be arranged by the client. Usually a few strong men will be sufficient.

    Highlands and Islands

    Delivery to these areas may be subject to additional delivery charges which are automatically applied in the checkout.

    Which side are the concealed bracket holes positioned?
    All dimensions through out the site relate to the height x depth. Unless otherwise stated we drill the holes to accept the concealed brackets in the largest face. For example a 6”x5” beam will have the holes machined in a 6” side. We can of course machine the holes in the smaller side. Just add a note in the checkout confirming your requirements.

    What is your returns policy?
    We accept returns within 14 days of receiving delivery. Just post the item back to us and we’ll refund you in full. Please include your original paperwork stating if you would like a full refund or exchange.

    How long will it take for my order to be dispatched?
    We typically dispatch orders within 5 working days. As most of our products are highly bespoke and made to measure, the dispatch time may be longer during busy periods. If you require your order before a certain date please get in touch to check we can meet your deadline prior to ordering. One delivery has been arranged we will update your order with tracking information.

    The size I need isn’t listed in the online shop!
    Please don’t worry if the size you require isn’t listed in our online shop. Please get in touch and request a quote through the enquiry form on the ‘Contact us’ page. Or you’re more than welcome to give us a call.

    Where does your oak come from?
    We source all of our oak from various sawmills in Europe. We’ve built up strong relationships with our suppliers who can guarantee a reliable supply at fantastic quality.

    Do you offer discount for large orders?
    Yes, we can offer great prices on large orders. Please get in touch and request a quote. We also offer discount for trade customers.

    Do you have a showroom?
    We don’t have a showroom yet. You are more than welcome to visit our workshop by appointment.

    How accurate are the dimensions?
    Beams and shelves may be up to ½” smaller due to machining and sanding. Typically beams are approximately 1/2″ smaller than their original size.

    How do I fit my beam or shelf using the concealed brackets supplied?
    Each order comes with fitting instructions. You can also visit our blog where you can find detailed instructions on how to fit a floating shelf using Hafele concealed shelf supports. If you need any further advice please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

    How do I keep my oak beam looking at it’s best?
    You will not need to apply any additional finish to your beam straight away. Your beam may dull down slightly with age. To keep your beam looking new you can apply a small amount of wax polish. 400ml tins can be purchased from our online shop.

    Will my beam crack once it’s installed?
    Your beam may already have surface cracks which are to be expected as oak is a natural product. Once installed in a central heated house further cracks may develop which is considered completely normal and part of the charm. We recommend storing your beam for 2 weeks in your house prior to installation.  If installing above a wood burning stove we recommend gradually increasing the temperature slowly over a period of 2 weeks or so.

    Can I fit my beam to a plasterboard wall?
    It is possible to fit your beam to a plasterboard wall if you can locate the timber uprights however it is best to fit your beam to a brick or breeze block wall. If this isn’t possible, we would recommend a fascia beam no larger than 6″x1.5″. Plasterboard screws can be used in conjunction with keyhole brackets machined into the back of the beam.
