Clavos, Cross Braces, and Grilles
Enhance any B.C. Door design with the addition of clavos, cross braces, or a grille to create an authentic old-world rustic look.
Clavos
Decorative clavos imitate old fashioned spikes or nails that were once used as the primary means to fasten lumber for construction purposes.
​
Decorative clavos are often installed at the ends of planks or panels to add a rustic look or old fashioned charm.
​
Clavos can be special ordered in a variety of finishes, sizes, and shapes.
Pricing on clavos and clavos-preparation varies based upon door design and clavos option selected. Please ask your local B.C. Door dealer for available options on specific door patterns.
Cross-Braces & Strapping
In the past, metal cross braces were also used as a means to secure lumber used to make doors.
​
Imitate this rustic construction method with the addition of cross braces / strapping where there are millwork joints.
​
Butt-joint, Angle-joint, and T-joint braces can be special ordered in a variety of finishes to accommodate all door types.
Pricing on cross braces / strapping varies based upon door design. Please ask your local B.C. Door dealer for available options on specific door patterns.
Grilles
Old fashioned grilles were designed as a break-and-enter deterrent. While Grilles continue to add a level of security - based on modern day advancements - grilles are now mostly for aesthetic purposes.
​
Grilles can be special ordered in a variety of finishes, sizes, and shapes to cover over almost any opening.
Ideal for: doors with Speakeasy's, sidelites, and generally any glass opening where a rustic grille would fit the design motif.
Pricing on grilles varies based upon size. Please ask your local B.C. Door dealer for available options on specific door patterns.
