End Matching
“Just put it up!”
Normally, you have a tongue and groove down the lengths of a board. The ends of a board are usually flat.
With Gorman Bros.' end matching, the boards fit together at the end with a tongue and groove. You don't have to land on anything like a stud, joist, or rafter because it's supported all the way through.

Lumby Pole Operation
Operating independently from Westbank lumber mill, the Utility Pole facility at Lumby, British Columbia manufactures a full range of 25 to 100-foot untreated poles for the Canadian and United States markets.
Approximately one-third of the logs required for pole production are harvested using selective logging methods. Utilizing stringent quality standards, another third are extracted from the logs delivered to the Gorman Bros. mill in Westbank. The remainder are purchased from other suppliers. The annual pole production -- in excess of 25,000 Western Red Cedar and Lodgepole Pine poles -- is augmented with a small quantity of Douglas Fir pilings.
