In the fast-paced world of multi-family construction, the demands on building materials are unique. Success requires products that can seamlessly balance performance, design consistency, and efficiency at scale. For dealers, millwork is not just a finishing touch; it plays a critical role in meeting rigorous code requirements, maintaining visual continuity, and keeping large-scale projects on schedule and within budget.
Unlike single-family construction, multi-family developments require high levels of repeatability and reliability across dozens – or even hundreds – of individual units. When specifying millwork for these projects, several key considerations come to the forefront:
Interior doors in a multi-family setting must deliver consistent finishes while supporting a wide range of unit types. To streamline these complex projects, Boise Cascade® Millwork focuses on several priorities:
| Feature | Multi-Family Benefit |
|---|---|
| Consistent Finishes | Paint-grade and stain-grade options ensure a uniform look throughout the building. |
| Technical Assemblies | Fire-rated and sound-control assemblies are utilized where specific codes require them. |
| Installation Efficiency | Prehung and prepped doors are used to significantly streamline the on-site installation process. |
The common spaces of a building, such as leasing offices and amenity areas, often require a higher level of design cohesion and enhanced performance. Common area millwork solutions typically include:
Multi-family projects bring heightened requirements that go beyond standard residential needs. Selections are often driven by three primary factors:
Efficiency in ordering and specification is the backbone of a successful multi-family project. Dealers find greater success when they utilize:
Maintaining a “matching” look across different buildings or project releases is essential for brand identity and future maintenance. Professional millwork programs support this by ensuring matching products are available across multiple releases, allowing for controlled variation between unit tiers, and providing long-term availability for repairs or future expansions.
