Frequently Asked Questions
What products does Metrie manufacture and what is available at Windsor Plywood?
Metrie is a North American manufacturer of interior mouldings, doors, and millwork. Windsor Plywood carries Metrie moulding lines including baseboard, casing, crown, and accent mouldings in solid wood and composite profiles. Metrie is known for design-forward profiles available in both traditional and contemporary styles.
What is the Metrie Always in Style collection?
Always in Style is Metrie's curated design system that groups moulding profiles into coordinated style families including Traditional, Craftsman, Contemporary, and others, with matched baseboard, casing, crown, and accent profiles designed to work together. Selecting within a style family makes it easier to achieve a cohesive interior without mixing profiles that conflict.
Are Metrie composite mouldings as durable as solid wood?
Metrie's composite mouldings are engineered from wood fibre composites that hold paint exceptionally well and resist the minor dents and chips that can occur with solid wood mouldings in high-traffic areas. For painted applications, composite mouldings often outperform solid wood by providing a smoother, more uniform painted surface.
What is the difference between Metrie finger-jointed and solid wood mouldings?
Finger-jointed mouldings are made from shorter pieces of wood joined end-to-end using interlocking finger joints. They are a more efficient use of wood fibre, are typically more affordable, and are designed for painted applications where the joints will not be visible. Solid wood mouldings are from single clear pieces, preferred for stained and natural finishes.
Does Metrie offer large-format or high-profile mouldings for feature applications?
Yes. Metrie carries large-format crown and casing profiles suitable for high-ceiling rooms and formal spaces. Profiles in widths up to 5 inches and larger in crown are available, as well as built-up moulding systems that combine multiple profiles for a traditional multi-piece crown assembly. Windsor Plywood can show you available profile options in the Metrie range.
