For a wood-look ceiling accent, these Ekena Millwork Heritage Timber beams offer three-sided U-beam designs in different lengths, profiles, and finishes. The 72-inch Salvaged Timber in Kona Brown is best for longer runs, while the 48-inch versions suit shorter spans or smaller areas. The Warm Caramel Axed Cut offers a different color and texture style, and the 5½-inch beam creates a wider visual profile. The listings identify these as faux wood beams but do not specify that they are foam, so verify material and installation details before buying if foam construction is essential.

Salvaged Timber 72-Inch Kona Brown Beam
This three-sided U-beam is 3½ inches wide, 3½ inches high, and 72 inches long. Its Kona Brown finish and Salvaged Timber style make it a fit for buyers seeking a darker, reclaimed-wood look across a longer ceiling section. The listed inside width is 1½ inches, with additional height dimensions given as 2½ inches.
Best for: Longer decorative runs where a narrow, dark-brown beam profile is desired. It was selected for its 72-inch length and recognizable Salvaged Timber styling. The listing says faux wood beams are in stock and readily available.
Limitation: The listing does not identify the beam as foam or provide installation instructions. Confirm the material, fit, and mounting requirements before purchase.
MENA 48-Inch Kona Brown Beam
The Heritage Timber MENA is a 3½-by-3½-inch, three-sided U-beam with a 48-inch length and Kona Brown finish. Its dimensions otherwise list a 1½-inch inside width and 2½-inch height measurement. The product description highlights the wood-like appearance without the upkeep associated with wood.
Best for: Buyers who want a shorter beam in a dark brown finish, such as for a smaller decorative span. Choose this over the 72-inch model when a 48-inch length better suits the planned layout.
Limitation: The listing does not provide details on material composition, weight, or installation. The MENA style is distinct from the Salvaged Timber profile, so compare the appearance before selecting.
Reclaimed Axed Cut 72-Inch Beam
This 72-inch, three-sided beam measures 3½ inches wide by 3½ inches high and comes in a Warm Caramel finish. The Reclaimed Axed Cut name distinguishes its look from the Salvaged Timber options. Its listed dimensions include a 1½-inch inside width and a 2½-inch height measurement.
Best for: Buyers who want a longer faux beam in a warm caramel color rather than Kona Brown. It was selected to provide a finish and style alternative while retaining the same nominal width and height as the 3½-inch options.
Limitation: The product details do not specify foam construction or explain how the axed-cut texture appears in person. Check the listing images and material information if those details affect your decision.
Salvaged Timber 48-Inch Kona Brown Beam
This compact version of the Salvaged Timber beam measures 3½ inches wide and high, with a 48-inch length and Kona Brown finish. It uses the same three-sided U-beam format as the longer model. Listed interior dimensions include a 1½-inch inside width and 2½-inch height measurement.
Best for: Buyers who want the Salvaged Timber style and dark finish but need a shorter length. It is a practical comparison choice against the 72-inch version when planning a smaller accent or multiple shorter sections.
Limitation: The listed product information does not state whether the beam can be cut, joined, or used in a particular installation. Confirm those requirements rather than assuming compatibility.
Wide Salvaged Timber 72-Inch Beam
This larger Salvaged Timber U-beam has a 5½-inch width and height and measures 72 inches long. The Kona Brown finish keeps it visually aligned with the narrower Salvaged Timber options. Its listed inside width is 3½ inches, with a further height measurement of 4½ inches.
Best for: Buyers seeking a wider, more substantial-looking beam than the 3½-inch models. It was selected because its larger dimensions offer a clear profile difference while keeping the same style, finish, and 72-inch length.
Limitation: The wider size may not suit every layout. Measure the intended location and check the inside dimensions before choosing it.
Buying Guide: How To Choose A Faux Wood Beam
Does “foam beam” mean the product is foam?
Not necessarily. These listings describe the items as faux wood beams, but the supplied product details do not state their material. If you specifically need a foam beam, check the complete listing or ask the seller to confirm the material before ordering. Do not assume faux wood means foam.
Which length should you choose?
Compare the planned span with the listed 48-inch and 72-inch lengths. A 48-inch beam is the shorter option; the 72-inch versions cover a longer distance. Measure the installation area and account for any joins or end treatments according to the product’s installation guidance.
How do width and height affect the look?
The 3½-by-3½-inch models provide a narrower profile than the 5½-by-5½-inch option. The larger beam may look more prominent, while the smaller models suit buyers seeking a less wide accent. Check inside dimensions as well as exterior measurements for fit.
Which finish and style should you compare?
Kona Brown is offered on the Salvaged Timber and MENA options. Warm Caramel is available on the Reclaimed Axed Cut beam. Compare finish color and style names with room finishes and product images; the supplied details do not establish exact color matching.
What should you confirm before ordering?
Verify material, dimensions, installation method, and whether the beam can be modified. The listed details do not establish weight, mounting hardware, cutting guidance, or compatibility with a particular ceiling. Confirm these points for the exact model and installation conditions.
