What Is Flat-Sawn?

A common wood-cutting method that produces broad faces and pronounced cathedral grain patterns.

Flat-sawn, also called plain-sawn, describes lumber or veneer cut with a wide face orientation that often creates cathedral-shaped grain patterns. It is common in doors, trim, and general millwork.

Buying Considerations

Compare the expected grain pattern with adjacent doors and trim when consistency matters. Sample panels or veneer sheets can help identify the visual effect before fabrication.
