Special circumstances prevent us from calculating a complete order with some of the products we sell. Being a wholesale company selling to the public requires some explanation on how pricing, shipping and footages are derived. This page is broken into the unique categories where purchasing a product may be as clear as going to your local home center and purchasing and S4S board.

Lumber Sales
All of the Hardwood lumber we carry is Kiln Dried to NHLA standards and originates from North Carolina mountains all the way to Pennsylvania and New York. Some species such as Alder comes from the Oregon area.

Grades
Lumber is available in several grades from #2 common to Select and Better or FAS (First and Seconds).  All lumber is stored in a rough state until orders are placed. 

Surfacing
We offer free surfacing of 4/4 stock from 1/2" to 15/16"(hit and miss) and 5/4 stock from1" to 1-3/16(hit and miss) or 8/4 stock from 1-1/4" to 1-7/8(hit and miss)  with a straight line rip on one side.   This is refered to as S3S, one side edge of the board is still in the rought state from the kiln.  If demension stock is desired see below in mouldings for S4S faceplate stock.  Standard thicknesses are 13/16" for 4/4, 1" for 5/4 and 1-3/4" for 8/4.  All lumber is surfaced with a double roughing planer usually to within 1/16" for final thickness.  This is not a finish surface planer.  Most customers order 13/16" thick stock and plan on removing 1/16" from either a finish planer or from final sanding.

How to calculate Footages
We sell lumber as gross footages refered to as board footage(BF).  Net footage is actual square footage such as 12" x 12" x 1" = 1 square foot.  Board footage (BF) is how lumber is calculated after surfacing and straight line riping have taken place which accounts for the loss of wood after the milling process.  Typically, surfacing and straight line ripping is a 17% fee, therefore a 12" x 12" x 1" board after surfacing is equal to 1.2 BF, meaning the original board was 17% larger to end up with a finished 12" x 12". 

Thickness only effects the factor to multiply by.  4/4 stock is a multiple of 1, 5/4 stock is a multiple of 1.25 and 8/4 stock is a multiple of 2.  Example, if you had a 10" x 12" block of wood and it was surfaced to 1-3/4" the board footage is calculated as 10W * 12L * 2(thickness) / .83(shrinkage) to give 2 BF.

Moulding
Linear mouldings manufactured by Georgia Hardwoods are milled from the same stock as the lumber we sell or the doors we manufacture.  All mouldings and faceplate stock are sold by the linear foot.  Moulding such as crowns and casings are run in long lengths 12, 14 or 16' stock except for Alder.  Panel moulds, scribes and faceplates are run in lengths from 7'-12'.  All mouldings denoted with * in specie drop down are considered special run mouldings and require a setup fee which must be selected at checkout in the order options section.   Special order mouldings have 5-7 day lead time.  The special run fee will be waived if the profile is scheduled to be run in our stock species or if the amount ordered is over 150 LF or $250.00.
