Welcome |
|
This is the final issue for this year. Back in July, we started these email based
announcements. We shall continue to
evolve these newsletters further. As
we improve the newsletter, we will still keep our focus towards the website
also. If you have been there recently,
you will notice that the newsletter can now be found online. As more issues are published you will be
able to refer back to them online. In
addition, we strive to keep the announcements page up to date. |

Some Things Old |

and pick some up. ATTENTION BUILDERS: If you are installing complete window units, stop by
the store and inquire about the easy-to-use pre-bent sill pans, available now! Now in stock: Genuine PASLODE RounDrive Hot Dipped Galvanized Collated Nails. *We also stock Fuel Cells for the cordless guns. |

Some Things New |
|
|
We have some new items in stock at Cape May
Lumber. We now stock Christy’s adhesive for the Azek
Trimboards, available in 8oz
“toothpaste” tubes. If you need another choice for porch ceiling or
wainscoting, we can now get 9/16x4 edge and center bead in Mahogany! Stainless
steel collated finish nails and finish brads are now available in 500 count job size packages. Most
sizes and styles are available now. |

Other Things |
|
|
For some years now, we have offered custom size screen/storm doors made
from mahogany. We still make those
doors here, but we have a few more options for other shop made items. If you are planning to build an enclosed
porch, we can build porch panels
that you can set up between the posts.
If you are in the market for an outside
shower door, we have a door model just for you. From time to time, we have been asked for Victorian Brackets to go with our
screen doors. We have a few to choose
from and they are also made from mahogany. |
