Our Wood Knee Braces are diagonal timber supports installed between a vertical post and a horizontal beam. Beyond strength, they create a bold visual accent for soffits, porch roofs, gables, pavilions, and free-standing outdoor structures. Each brace is built in-house from solid Western Red Cedar and offered in smooth or rough-sawn finishes, with custom options available for unique layouts.
