Case study

Accoya wood for Carinya house in NSW

Accoya has been used extensively for this beautiful private home. For timber windows and doors in the main property, as well as for two out-buildings, pedestrian gate with pergola, driveway gates and a picket fence.

The Accoya wood has been coated in a variation of colours for this project. Accoya is the ideal material for coatings as it is so stable and the limited movement all year round will prevent coatings from deteriorating. The stability will also allow windows and doors to move freely as Accoya wood will shrink and swell much less than other wood species.

Coatings & Finishes

A fully factory coating is strongly recommended for Accoya casement windows. A variety of colours and finishes have been tested by leading coating manufacturers with outstanding results. Some examples can be seen below but the possibilities are endless.

Translucent

Oak effect

Teak effect

Opaque

Accoya frames for casement windows, Wanaka NZ

This family home is located in Wanaka on the South Island of New Zealand. The style is traditional of the Central Otago region using wood throughout the property. All joinery was manufactured and installed by local company, Lunds Joinery Timaru (LJT). LJT produced all the timber windows, as well as the internal joinery for the wardrobes, bathrooms, laundry room and kitchen. The frames for the windows are made with Accoya and a total of 6.5m3 of Accoya was used in this project.

Accoya was the ideal material for the window frames due to the close proximity to Wanaka lake and the alpine environment this creates. Wanaka lake is the fourth-largest lake in New Zealand and 278 meters above sea level. This causes damp air which is often a problem for joinery, but not for Accoya as it is highly stable. The shrink and swell is minimal, meaning the windows of this property can open and close into the frames effortlessly, all year round.
