Red Oak

Many manufacturers, shops and designers prefer the Red Oak species for cabinet doors and components. The wood provides many advantages, including:

• Durability: Red Oak is considered a sturdy hardwood and offers durability in high-traffic areas.
• Grain patterns: The species contains a mostly straight grain with some rippling and a coarse texture.
• Uniform staining: The wood’s open-pore end grains help the surface absorb stains and glazes.
• Cost-effective prices: The material’s abundance makes the wood relatively affordable in North America.
