Nantucket Cedar Series
Nantucket, a small island off
the coast of Massachusetts in the North Atlantic Ocean is
one of the most challenging and demanding environments in
the U.S. for windows and other exterior products. Combine
the winds that regularly exceed 60 mph, the constant moisture
and salt spray in the air and the blowing sand, with the architectural
detail required by the Nantucket Historic Society
and most window manufacturers are unable to meet the application
requirements.
We have been striving to refine our product line to withstand
these conditions while continuing to meet the approval of
the Historic Society. The result of over 14 years experience
in providing windows to the island is the Nantucket Cedar
Series Window offered by Cleary Millwork.
Why Cedar?
Cedar with it's warm tones and grain texture is a beautiful
wood that weathers naturally to a soft silver gray tone.
Cedar's natural preservative oils deter attack by insects
and decay. It is one of the worlds most durable woods.
Additionally, cedar is dimensionally stable and resists splitting,
cupping and warping. With its even and consistent grain texture,
cedar machines well and is an ideal product for any exterior
trim application.
