Brown Maple holds up to wheelchair pressure in this home renovation

Some times you need a really hard floor—like when wheelchairs are involved.  For this home in Cumberland, Rhode Island, the design firm Inclusion by Design, used Carlisle’s 8-inch Brown Maple boards, which were finished at the home site with a Gingerbread stain and tung oil.   Inclusion by Design, based in Providence, Rhode Island, specializes in making homes and businesses accessible to people with disabilities and they take on some projects where renovations need to be made because of new, limited mobility. The Carlisle Mill in Swanzey, New Hampshire handled making this floor with the design work of Crystal Knowles in our Stoddard, New Hampshire offices. The Brown Maple is a great option for those who like the look of an older pine, but need to have a much harder floor.
