Questions about French oak planks?
Whatsapp usThe oak planks have a French origin.
The country has many areas with good soil and a perfect climate for the oak trees to develop into mature oak trees.
The result: a high-quality oak plank with a light beige color.
Oak is a beautiful wood species for interior construction.
The wood is a hardwood species and has a beautiful color and grain.
Oak planks can be used for a variety of projects.
Think, for example, of an oak table, an oak wall shelf, a desk or an oak cabinet.
The oak is planed to a fixed thickness of 3 cm, 4 cm or 6 cm, making it easy to process.
This planing brings out the natural, light beige color of the oak.
The wood can also be sawn and planed to thicknesses of 2 cm or 2.5 cm.
See the French oak floor or French oak roof boarding page for more information.
Lovers of oak planks with knots (or knots) and a rustic look will be well served at the wood yard.
Each oak plank has its own wood grain and color tone, making it great fun to pick out the planks yourself.
The oak planks have a warm, rustic look that creates a lot of atmosphere in an interior application.
The wood has been artificially back-dried and therefore has a moisture content of approximately 12 to 14% after this treatment, the right percentage for an indoor application.
Because these boards have been dried, the effect from the wood has largely disappeared.
However, wood remains a natural product and will always work a little, so make sure that the humidity in a home remains stable between 55% and 65%.
In addition to the so-called dead-sawn planks (a log cut into long planks), there are also quarter-sawn oak planks in the collection.
In quarter sawing, the tree is divided lengthwise into four quarters and sawn toward the center of the trunk.
The planks are thus sawn perpendicular to the heart of the oak trunk.
As a result, the annual rings are perpendicular to the top of the plank.
This has the advantage that the board is less sensitive to movement in width.
In addition, quarter sawing determines the grain of the wood: the so-called “mirrors” in the wood appear.
This has an almost magical meaning for some and it is considered the most beautiful, best and exclusive wood.
Yes indeed, oak can be used in outdoor applications such as an oak decking, an oak outdoor table or an oak garden path.
It is a hardwood species and falls into durability class 2.
The wood ages naturally due to various weather influences.
Our advice is to use oak outdoors that has dried on the wind for several years, because of the effect of the wood.
At the lumber yard, we have a wide range of wind-dried oak planks in a variety of sizes.

Oak planks can be perfectly processed into a table or tabletop.
At the wood yard, there is the possibility to compose the table top yourself.

In the search for solid oak stair treads, we may be able to help.
A stair step is usually 24 cm, 25 cm or 26 cm wide (240 mm, 250 mm or 260 mm) and about 4 cm thick (40 mm).
Such a step can be cut from 1 wide plank, so there is no glue seam to be seen.
There are wide oak planks in stock.
The stair treads can be sawn to size and planed at the sawmill.
An attractive sliding door made of French oak planks can be a beautiful addition to an interior.
Such a door with a thickness of 4 cm soon weighs about 60 kg.
Therefore, make sure you have a strong and solid suspension system.
The French oak boards are planed in stock in various thicknesses.
Such a planing operation ensures that the planks become straight, have a smooth surface and the wood grain becomes clearly visible.
The oak planks are usually dimensionally stable due to the four-sided machining.
Useful for interior builders, contractors and do-it-yourselfers!
When planed oak comes into contact with water, the water-soluble substances in the wood rise to the surface.
This causes circles and stains.
If the wood is not treated, over time the planks darken and stain.
This can be beautiful: the signs of time are visible, memories are visible.
But if this is undesirable, we recommend using an oil or lacquer.
Rigostep’s ultra-matte lacquer Skylt provides a finished surface, but the color of the wood remains virtually the same.
Tip: test a treatment first on a piece of leftover wood to see if the color and sheen are to your liking.
The prices of oak planks depend on a number of factors.
For example, the thickness is a determining factor, as is the width of the plank.
A wide plank is relatively pricier than a narrow plank.
For example, a 25 cm wide oak plank is pricier than a 15 cm wide oak plank.
Length also plays a role: a 5 meter or 6 meter board is pricier than a 2 meter board.
