EIGHTY FOUR, Pa. — 84 Lumber has announced its newest building component – 84 Vertical. This new program started in Denver, Colorado, and is now available in other markets such as Atlanta, Georgia; Nashville, Tennessee; Birmingham, Alabama; and Indianapolis, Indiana.

This new service is an extension of the company’s expanding component services. Optimized lumber packages will be available through design, fostering better wood utilization and less waste – a greener process that will reduce the amount of wood used to build the average home, and lower jobsite disposal expenses. 84 Vertical also aims at reducing build cycle time. Materials will be shipped labeled, pre-cut, and ready to assemble, which will allow for faster assembly, producing a safer build with fewer jobsite injuries.

“We’re ‘exactimating,’ not estimating,” said Jim Abbott, EWP vice president at 84 Lumber. “We are excited to launch 84 Vertical, and we know our customers are ready for this program. The goal is to better serve our customers and help them build more efficiently and accurately.”

The creation of the program was in response to demand in a competitive market and labor shortage, as 84 Lumber wanted to expand product and service offerings to meet the needs of customers. 

84 Lumber is a supplier of building materials, manufactured components, and industry services for single and multifamily residences and commercial buildings. The company currently operates 320 facilities in 34 states, which include stores, component manufacturing plants, engineered wood product (EWP) centers, and door shops.
