Western Red Cedar Channel Siding
Western Red Cedar Channel Siding is quite versatile and can be installed vertically, horizontally or diagonally. In channel siding the profile of each board partially overlaps that of the board next to it creating a channel that gives shadow line effects, provides excellent weather protection, and allows for dimensional movement. It can come in a variety of different sizes, patterns and grades. This siding type can also be supplied kiln dried or green/unseasoned.
