Western Red Cedar Bevel Siding
Cedar Bevel Siding, also known as tapered lap siding, crafted from Western Red Cedar graded as Select with tight knots. Western Red Cedar bevel siding is a popular choice for outdoor projects due to its ease of installation, rot resistance, and attractive appearance. It is ideal for homes, cottages, and cabins seeking a rustic and charming aesthetic.
Bevel siding is produced by sawing lumber at an angle, resulting in two triangular pieces of wood that are thicker on one side and thinner on the other. Utilizing this method allows for more efficient use of lumber, typically providing two beveled siding pieces from a single clapboard. This cut style creates each panel with a smooth face and a rougher side.
Siding is graded to the rough side and is recommended to use this side for more uniform appearance. When installed, cedar bevel siding is overlapped to cover the joints between panels. This lap pattern helps protect the joints from wear and weathering. To preserve the vibrant, warm tone of Western Red Cedar, we recommend staining or painting your cedar bevel siding.

Additional Information
Cedar Bevel Siding Size
Sold by the linear foot and available up to 16′ lengths.Â
Siding is an actual 21/32″ thickness at the end butt for the 6″ and 8″ widths and 11/16″ thickness at the end butt for the 10″ width. It tapers to 3/16″ – 1/4″ width at the tapered end.
This grade does allow for knots, but the knots should be tight and not fall out. This bevel lap siding is made out of S1S2E, surfaced on one face and both edges and left rough on one face. It is graded for the rough face. The back side is smoother, but may have imperfections from milling. Western Red Cedar holds up very well to the exterior elements. It will hold up best if stained or painted, but can be left alone to naturally weather to a weathered-gray color.
