How to Add RSJ Beam Covers to Your Tudor Home Design
Beam covers are used for decorative purposes to disguise exposed structures, including RSJs (steel joists). Our RSJ beam covers are crafted in-house by our skilled team who will weld three mock Tudor boards together to create a three sided square shape. Our beam cover designs feature an oak grain covering on all three sides and are easy to adjust to your home design, as they can be cut, sanded and drilled just like real wood.
Each side is solid compressed polyurethane and when welded together, as shown in the video above, they can hold the weight of a small car!
RSJ Beam Covers for Tudor Style Homes
Our RSJ beam covers can be used as an elegant and tasteful design point inside your home. When used as a mock ceiling beam for a traditional Tudor style, it can help to create a sleek interior by hiding cluttered structures, such as RSJs, concrete lintels and pipework.
In addition to hiding unappealing fixtures, the traditional designs of mock ceiling beams conveys character and class in each room they are fitted in. The refined contrast between a dark brown or black beam cover against white walls is traditional and offers a tasteful twist on minimalistic modern home designs. If you have mock Tudor boards fitted to the exterior of your house, this can keep your home design consistent throughout.
Trying Something Different
However, this doesn’t mean you must stick to tradition. While seeking interior design inspiration online, you will find many homeowners who have added a playful twist by painting their beam covers vibrant colours. This can add a spark of personality to your home design, as well as tie in with any colourful home accessories you have.
As well as along your ceiling, your RSJ beam covers can be used as a vertical post or steel upright cover. All this takes is adding a fourth side to your beam cover so that all sides are closed in. This can be especially ideal for upright oak posts inside your home.
