Sub Jamb Openings for Windows & Doors

One of the innovations that we have created is the development of a steel t-bar system that gets used to vertically align the logs at all window and door openings. We router out all of the log ends that align with all of the openings, in our factory. By creating all of the required cuts during the manufacturing of the home in our shop, this allows for speedy and trouble free installations out on the construction job sites. The steel t-bars are factory pre-cut and are simply installed on site. By installing these steel inserts at all window and door openings they maintain the log walls to remain plumb. The other added benefit of this system is that because of the manner in which the logs are milled for the steel bars, they allow for any movement that might take place, such as any settlement that might happen over time.
