Shipping Options:
No Peanuts– We realize that sometimes those little peanuts seem like more of a pest than an asset to your project. Eliminate the little guys by calling and requesting your item ship with No Peanuts! We’ll make sure there is no escaping foam when you open your next package from us.
Dry Pack– Wood is not a stable element, and sometimes changes in moisture can cause the product to crack. This is one of the reasons we request that you inspect and finish the items immediately upon arrival. If you also want to give them extra protection on the way, Dry Pack will add extra shrink wrap to help prevent cracking due to moisture change while in transit.
No Invoice/Packing Slip– Are you shipping your items to a finisher or customer? You may choose not to include a packing slip with your order. We can email you a copy of your invoice and leave the packing slip out.
Packing Slip on Outside of Box– Make the task of sorting boxes more efficient by having the packing slip attached to the outside of your box. There’s no need for digging through packaging and products to find the slip with this option.

Rush– A rush guarantees that your product leaves our building the day it is ordered. To check if your product(s) are available for this service call our customer service line. Rush orders shipping UPS Ground are an additional fee for the Rush Service. (Expedited shipping does not require a charge and you can call to check the shipping options for your order.)

Sanding, Millwork and More:
Sanding to 220 Grit– Our products are sanded to 150 grit as a standard. If you need your items sanded to 220 grit, we can do that for you, as well.

An example of this would be hand selecting a knotty pine leg for the greatest number of knots, or hand selecting a soft maple leg for the least amount of color variation. There is a fee per item for this service. This service only applies to items that are currently in stock. Please check with our customer service representatives to make sure your items are eligible for this service.

Solid Stock Only– You may request that only solids be sent for an item when they are available in stock. Items over 3.5″ wide are almost impossible to get as solids, as they tend to crack easily. Some wood types are hard to obtain in solids under 3.5″ wide as well, so if it is not in stock our customer service representatives may need to check with production before putting this service in. Additional charges apply for this service.
Exterior Glue– Although we do not recommend our products for exterior use you may request exterior glue be used in the production of your products. The items must be manufactured In House.

Quarters– A turning may be sent as quarters (all four quarters sent). The item must be symmetrical in order for the product to be eligible for this service. Note: Quarters does allow for the width of the saw blade and are not “Perfect Quarters.” The fee for this is the price of the leg before discounts.

Receptacle Notch– Our receptacle notch service is the following size: Receptacle notch is cut 1 ¼” from the top, 3” long, 2” wide, and 2 ¼” deep. There will be a 1″ hole through the center of the leg, so the leg must be at least 1 ¾” wide the entire length. The item must have a top square in order to be eligible for this service, as the notch will be centered in square, and the top block must be at least 5″ tall and 3″ wide. Specifications other than these listed may be done as custom millwork. Contact customer service for availability of other options. A service fee applies.
Horizontal Keyhole– Cut a single horizontal wood keyhole in the back of a corbel. Additional charges apply

Shelf Notch– A shelf notch can be added to a square block on the bottom of one of our products. The notch will meet your specification of distance from floor and thickness of the notch, so a CAD drawing will need to be created and approved. Service charge applies. The leg must have a bottom or middle square.
Mortise– Legs can be mortised on the top or bottom square of the product. The mortise may be milled into 1,2,3 or 4 sides of the leg (if 2- opposite or adjacent). Our standard mortise is 3” long x 3/8” wide x 7/8” deep and is set about 5/8” from the top of the leg. Items must have a top or bottom square in order to accept the mortise. A service charge per leg will apply.
Cut Moulding– If you need shorter sticks of moulding, or would like to cut down on shipping costs, we can cut the sticks of moulding so that all pieces are 45” or less. For a 96” piece of moulding this would be two 45” pieces and one 5 ¾” piece.
Trim Moulding – If you would like to save on shipping, we can trim our moulding to 93”.
Through Hole– Items manufactured In House may have a 1″ hole through the center of the product. The leg must be at least 1.75″ for the entire length, and 2″ is ideal. Service charges apply.

Installation:
Industrial Hanger Installation– Our corbels come standard with keyholebrackets for hanging. However, for some projects a stronger method of installation may be needed. For this reason, Osborne offers Industrial Hanger installation services. Our industrial hangers are part #955HW. For corbels with a back surface less than 11” one hanger is used. For a surface greater than 11” two hangers would be installed. The installation service charge per hanger applies, plus the cost of the hanger.
Install Bolt/Screw– Our Screw Dowels (Part 910HW or 916HW), or Hanger Bolts (Parts 920HW, 925HW, or 930HW) can all be installed in your product. Hardware will be installed in the top or bottom center of the product. There is an install charge per hardware installed plus the cost of the hardware.
Install Bolt/Screw in Chamfer– Hardware may also be installed in a chamfer. Our chamfer service is done to the top square of the leg. The width and height of the chamfer must be specified. Our standard chamfer is ¾” wide and 4” tall. Then, the hardware of your choice will be installed at a designated height in the chamfer. A distance from the top of the leg to the center of the bolt/screw must be specified. The hardware must be added to the order so that it may be installed in the leg. Service charge applies.
Install Metal Keyhole Bracket– Corbels may be used in various projects. For some projects, you may need to flip the corbel and have keyhole brackets on what would originally be the top of the corbel. We can add keyhole brackets to the top of the corbel for you to assist you in completing your design. One to two brackets will be needed (depending on the depth of the corbel). The rule of thumb is that 1 bracket is used for corbels with a depth less than 8”. For a depth greater than 8”, two keyhole brackets will need to be installed. Fee applies.
Horizontal Keyhole – If a horizontal keyhole would be needed to install your corbels, we can cut a horizontal wooden keyhole in the back of the product. The back of the corbel must be at least 2 ¼” wide where the keyhole would be cut. The rule of thumb is that 1 keyhole is used for corbels with a depth less than 8”. For a depth greater than 8”, two keyholes will need to be cut. Additional fee applies.
