Hardware
The right hardware is what makes cabinetry, casework, and decking feel truly built. As a proud distributor of King Slide® drawer slides, Mason’s Mill & Lumber pairs precision-milled lumber with the slides, hinges, fasteners, and finishing hardware that carpenters, cabinet shops, and builders rely on every day.
Hardware & Fasteners
Cabinetry and decking projects live or die by the small parts. A drawer that racks, a hinge that sags, a fastener that backs out — those details undo months of design and craftsmanship in a single season.
At Mason’s Mill & Lumber, we stock hardware the way we stock lumber: chosen for performance, matched to the job, and backed by people who know how it installs. From European-engineered Blum® hinges and undermount slides to King Slide® drawer systems and value-tier CGS options, we help you specify the right hardware for the cabinet, the drawer weight, and the budget in front of you.

Vertical Grain Pine — Cutek Extreme Clear Finish
Vertical Grain (VG) Pine is a premium cut of pine milled specifically so that the growth rings run perpendicular to the face of the board — typically at 60° to 90° to the surface. This "quartersawn" or "rift-sawn" orientation produces a board with a tight, straight, pinstripe-like grain pattern that is dramatically more stable and refined than standard flat-sawn (plain-sawn) pine. Because the growth rings are oriented vertically, VG boards resist the cupping, twisting, and cathedral-pattern grain shifts that flat-sawn lumber is prone to, and they wear more evenly over time — which is why vertical grain has been the traditional choice for high-end architectural applications like porch flooring, exterior siding, boat decks, and fine millwork.
The visual character of VG Pine is one of its biggest selling points: consistent, linear grain lines with minimal figure or knots, producing a clean, understated appearance that reads as more formal and architectural than character-grade pine. This makes it particularly well-suited to applications where the wood is a design feature rather than a background material — traditional porch ceilings, Craftsman and coastal-style siding, wainscoting, and interior paneling.
Each board is finished with Cutek Extreme Clear, a penetrating oil engineered to stabilize exterior wood from the inside out. Rather than forming a surface film like paint or varnish, Cutek carries its oils deep into the wood fibers, where they work continuously to slow moisture movement — the primary driver of cupping, checking, and end-splitting. This is especially valuable for pine, which is more naturally susceptible to moisture-related movement than denser hardwoods; Cutek's stabilizing action significantly extends the board's dimensional life outdoors. Because the finish penetrates rather than coats, it cannot peel or flake, and maintenance requires no sanding or stripping — just clean the surface and reapply when it looks dry. The clear formulation adds no pigment, allowing the natural honey-gold tone of the pine to show through initially before gradually silvering to a soft gray patina if left unmaintained with a colortone.
Ideal for porch ceilings, tongue-and-groove soffits, traditional lap or shiplap siding, wainscoting, interior paneling, and any application where a refined, straight-grained wood aesthetic is desired.
