Welcome to Maine Mountain Post & Beam

 
Maine Mountain Post & Beam is a timber frame company located in Fryeburg, Maine. For over 25 years we have specialized in the dismantle, restoration, and re-assembly of antique timber frame buildings for both homes and barns. 

We also design, cut & erect new timber frames using traditional joinery, methods, and techniques (pegged mortise & tenon joinery, no metal fasteners). 

Current Project

Current project: Connected Farmhouse, NH »

This project incorporated three timber frames.  One is a new 32’x36’ barn frame.  One is a re-assembled antique cape. And one is a new 16’x24’ frame cut from antique timber.  We basically recreated a connected farmstead.
 
With full tie and plates, the barn frame incorporates the English Tying Joint.  The 16’x24’ frame is salvaged timber tied with a wedged dovetail.  The circa 1789 cape is 28’x38’.  Much of the timber in the cape is Chestnut.
