QUALITY
FEATURES
Our philosophy in building furniture
throughout the years has remained constant - build to last in a
style that will endure and continue to please.
Our quality features are constant with our
different furniture lines - excellent workmanship and materials,
balanced design, carefully selected accessorial features, ease of
set-up (beds only) and ease of maintenance. Of equal
importance are two other elements - build and shipping schedules
that are met and over-all superior customer service. In
combination, these things have allowed us remarkable growth for
which we are very appreciative to all our valued
clients.
An important part of our business is that each
piece of furniture is completely made by hand - preparation of the
logs and wood, cutting the components and building to finishing and
staging before receipt by the customer. Because of this we
stress that standard measurements given can vary slightly although
specific custom measurements will be met.
All of our beds are complete units in that
they include a finished support system on which to place the box
springs and mattress. Each bed is pre-fit before leaving our
facility. The log beds are finished with plugs which allow the
owner to access the bolting system in the event of a move. The
dressers, nightstands and other case goods are all made from solid
wood - no pressed wood or veneers. The tops are solid wood
which means no nasty surprises if you damage the top and attempt to
sand it down. (you cannot refinish pressed wood or veneer
tops) However, plywood is used on the drawer bottoms and are
inserted into grooved sides and back and then stapled and glued
under high pressure which keeps them firmly in place. To our
knowledge we have never had a drawer bottom come out.
Additionally our furniture is braced to keep it squared for years of
use and moving. The finishes used are chosen to highlight the
natural beauty of the wood and are all applied by hand.
  Following are additional features that are unique to
the type of furniture being built.
PREMIUM LOG
This is the top of the line lodgepole log
furniture. Six-inch corner posts are used on the beds and the
bolting system fits into metal sleeves to prevent stripping.
Pedestals are used under the support logs to give additonal support
to the user, and to stabilize the bed.
All of the furniture features full log framing and
the tops all have a half log trim. Full extension,
steel ball bearing glides with a 100 pound capacity, allows
for an easy gliding system. The Premium Log products
offer many choices - clean or rustic (partial bark) finish, clear or
stained, hand-cut drawknife finish or many custom options for size
and finishes.
SLIMLINE LOG
This line was designed to accommodate smaller spaces
but offers the same materials, finshes and custom choices as the
Premium Log line.
The corner posts for the beds are a five inch log
and traditional bolting is used. Pedestals also come with the
Slimline beds.
The furniture is built with traditional framing but
also features a framework of log. The tops do not have the
half-log trim. European glides with a 3/4 inch extension are
used on the drawers. This line also offers a very
cost-effective choice from the premium furniture.
ASPEN
Aspen is appreciated because of the natural curving
and twisting of the wood. because of this, it is more labor
intensive as each individual log is prepped
and finished completely by hand. Full extension,
steel ball-bearing glides are used on the aspen
furniture.
Finishes are carefully selected to enhance the
beauty of the individual pieces of aspen furniture.
BARNWOOD
Using reclaimed barnwood offers a new set of
challenges with dirt, embedded gravel, rusty nails and old paint-all
elements which must be cleaned up before the wood can be used.
After many time consuming processes, we usually uncover beautiful
wood that can not be duplicated with a new purchase. Again,
we use the full-extension ball-bearing glides on the
drawers. Solid wood planks form the support system on the
beds. We enjoy the creation of new furniture from old wood and
constantly work to improve our ability to work with it.
Overall, we are constantly alert to new building
techniques, new designs, new systems and new materials which will
enhance that which we currently use and offer. The bottom line
is this - your continued satisfaction is out priority. We
would not succeed without you. Thank you, from Utah Mountain
Furniture.
