Our wood and PVC (vinyl) decorative Gable Decorations can be installed to fit a variety of roof pitches (slopes). Center drop piece will have attached finial. PVC Gable Finials vary slightly.
Our Recommendation: Due to the weather exposure gables typically receive, please consider PVC for your Gable Decorations. AZEK® Brand Cellular PVC is a synthetic wood that will never crack, warp, or rot and is impervious to moisture, salt, and insects! That's perfect for Gable Decorations, since they're difficult to re-paint once installed. NOTE: Balls & dowels, if present, are light-colored smooth hardwoods, regardless which material you select for your Gable Decoration.
If ordering Gables in White Pine, the drop attached to the finial will be made of Cypress. (Cypress is very close in color to White Pine.)
If ordering in wood, please consider upgrading to at least 1-1/4" thickness. NOTE - 3/4" thick Redwood comes to us from the mills at 5/8" actual thickness and is not suitable for Gable Decorations. The other Redwood thicknesses come in at full measure, as do all other woods. Cedar in 3/4" and 1" thicknesses are also not suitable for Gable Decorations.
"Attached is a photograph of ... the installation of your [Gable Decorations] on the front gables. Thanks for supplying the most recent improvement. Your product line is excellent and the appearance of the house has resulted in numerous compliments." - Dave L, Texas
