Daley Timber Frames
Traditional Timber Frame Structures Built with Time-Honored Joinery in Albany, New York
What is timber framing?
Timber framing is a traditional building method that uses heavy wood posts and beams joined together with precisely cut mortise-and-tenon joinery. The joints are secured with hardwood pegs rather than metal fasteners, creating strong and durable structures.
Each frame is carefully laid out and cut by hand using traditional tools and methods. This approach allows the structure to be built with precision while celebrating the natural character of the wood.
Timber frames have been used for centuries to build barns, homes, and community buildings. When built with responsibly sourced wood, timber framing can also support regional forest economies. Sustainable forestry practices such as careful thinning and long-term forest management help maintain healthy, resilient forests while providing durable materials for building.
