About Douglas fir

Douglas fir is a durable domestic softwood. It is not quite as durable as European oak, but it is a lower-cost and equally attractive alternative. Its high resin content and naturally tight grain make it one of the most hard-wearing domestic softwoods, so it does not need to be treated. Its colour ranges from cream to pink to deep red and weathers to a silvery grey over time. If you would like to keep the original colour for longer, you can apply Treatex Douglas Fir Protection.

Finishes and options

• Top style: Full Pyramid (fixed on this listing). The other top styles are listed separately.
• Finish: Rough Sawn, Planed All Round (planed all round to a smooth finish), or Planed and Chamfered (planed all round with a 3 mm chamfer on the edges). Planed bollards finish approximately 6 mm smaller than the nominal size (±2 mm).
• Grooves: none, a single groove or double grooves, plain or with white reflective tape. Other tape colours: please contact our Sales Team.
• Groove size: each groove is 20 mm wide and shallow, with the reflective tape set just below the surface (about 7 mm deep). The first groove is centred 90 mm below the top of the shaft; on double grooves the second is centred 50 mm below the first.
