Custom Timbers, Beams, and Millwork

Specialty Beams is a custom timber sawmill located in the mountains of northwest Montana. We specialize in custom structural timbers and wood beams cut from standing dead and green douglas fir.

We supply builders nationwide with multiple products including large timbers (rough sawn, hewn, planed), lumber, timberframe hardware, and architectural millwork.

Our unique mill design and tracking system allows us to cut small orders or very large complex jobs that accommodate the needs of the customer. We cut a variety of sizes of douglas fir timbers and lumber in lengths up to 40 feet. We also offer custom timber planing for both products produced from our sawmill and timbers brought in by customers. Planing produces a smooth, high quality finish which is in contrast to the natural, rough sawn texture or a hand hewn texture.

For every dead tree utilized, a green tree is saved. Montana has an increasing problem with diseased trees. Fuel reduction and disease control are improved by selective removal of dead trees. Read More
