Horizontal Rusticated Cedar Weatherboards

Rusticated horizontal weatherboards, sometimes referred to as horizontal shiplap, were a derivative of the traditional bevel backboard.  The rusticated profile traditionally has a distinctive scalloped rebate and is reminiscent of rural buildings.  This profile is renowned for its strength and robustness. 

Modern machining methods have enabled manufacturers to modify this profile further to create a variety of lap detailing and offer a myriad of options to suit the needs of designers and end users whatever the context.  Be it a narrow profiled modular design; wide-boarded, bold pavilion or random width and depth feature wall.

With a choice of either dressed face or bandsawn face and a range of wood oil coating options, the finish and colour can be manipulated to suit most tastes and to respond to whatever environment the building may be found.

Rosenfeld Kidson has developed a number of innovative junction details for this system, improving aesthetics, ease of installation and weather-tight performance.

The Cedarscreen Rusticated system comprises of either direct fixed or 20mm cavity system, both CodeMark certified, which independently verifies compliance with all relevant performance and durability requirements of the Building Code.

About the
Seller

Rosenfeld Kidson & Co. Ltd is a specialist timber company stocking New Zealand’s largest range of over 50 species of specialist timbers, both imported and locally grown.  These timbers are distributed to joiners, furniture manufacturers, cabinetmakers, boat builders, flooring contractors and the construction industry throughout the country, primarily via selected timber merchant resellers.

The company was incorporated in 1930 when John Kidson and Australian Julius Rosenfeld formed a partnership to import hardwood from Australia.  New South Wales hardwoods were in demand during the depression years for wharf and bridge construction, as well as power reticulation.

For the next 65 years the company operated from The Strand in Parnell, Auckland, before moving in 1996 to new purpose built premises in Mt Wellington - an 11,000m2 site with 2000m2 drive-through warehouse and another 1000m2 of covered storage. The business also operates a second 2500m2 site in Auckland where its state of the art timber processing facility is located. It also has a second sales and warehouse facility in Hornby, Christchurch, which manages distribution to our South Island customers.

As Rosenfeld Kidson approaches 90 years in business, the company is in its fourth generation of ownership and operation.  The success and longevity of the company has largely hinged on the efforts and experience of dedicated and loyal staff, who are able to provide our customers with a wealth of knowledge about the specialist timbers we sell.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
