With its extended width, the 8 x 4 oak mantel beam delivers a strong, substantial look above any fireplace. Its proportions balance elegance with strength, while the shaped edges create a rustic appearance that enhances the natural character of oak.
Standard & Custom Options – supplied as a 4 x 8 beam or carved to bespoke requirements.
Complete with Fixings – screws and plugs included, best for solid walls; stud wall installation requires specialist fixings (not included).
Precision Finished – finished sizes may vary by ±half an inch, highlighting the natural qualities of oak.
All timber is sourced through reputable British suppliers. While some materials may come from overseas, each 4 x 8 oak mantel piece is carefully selected for strength and beauty.
As oak settles into its environment, it develops deeper tones, textures, and markings, giving your 4 x 8 oak mantel fireplace beam a unique personality that grows with your family and your home.
On delivery, we recommend removing the beam from its box and letting it rest at room temperature for around two weeks before installation.
Please note: colours may appear lighter on a screen than in the finished mantel.
