Steller Floors planks are easy to swap, repair or replace without compromising on design aesthetics
Fixed-Length Planks for Design Flexibility
Steller Floors come in three standard plank lengths—24, 36, and 48 inches in an assorted ration that is typically 1:1:1. These lengths offer a mix of aesthetics and easy installation. Having defined lengths provides:
- Simple Installation – Fewer calculations and minimal cutting for the average DIYer.
- Easy Swapping and Replacement – If you want to hide a plank under the couch - there are no measurements or saws required. Plus if you need additional planks later, it’s straightforward to match and ship specific, precision milled lengths.
- Dynamic and Flexible Layouts – Mixing lengths within the same floor can create beautiful staggered seams or other unique patterns but with a Steller Floor your design can be moved or changed over time. The possibilities are endless!
Precision Design: Why Plank Length Doesn’t Affect Room Size
In most wood flooring, longer planks can help reduce the visibility of butt-end seams, which, if poorly milled, can interrupt the eye and make a room feel smaller. Steller Floors solves this with:
- Precision End Matching – Our planks are engineered to have minimal edge treatments and precise end joints.
- Secure Butt-End Clips – Specially designed clips ensure tight, stable seams that are almost invisible.
- High-Quality Milling – Each plank is crafted to exacting standards, so even shorter or mid-length pieces line up seamlessly.
Because the seams are so discreet, the plank length has far less impact on how large or continuous your floor looks.
Custom Length Options
For those who want something outside the standard offerings:
- Up to 50 Inches – If you’d prefer a slightly longer look or have specific project requirements, we can accommodate lengths up to 50 inches.
- Specialty Designs – Patterns like herringbone or parquetry often require precise dimensions; we’re happy to fulfill custom orders to achieve a perfectly tailored look for your project.
How to Get Your Preferred Look
- Aesthetic Preference: If you prefer the traditional look of multiple plank lengths intermixed, simply start each row with a random length to avoid H or Plus-Joints.
- Project Requirements: Certain traditional, picture-frame or parquet-inspired patterns require consistent dimensions—opt for a custom order if you want a defined pattern.
- Practical Considerations: Think about how you plan to use the space, how often it might need repairs, or if you anticipate future expansions of your Steller Floor
- Consider Plank Orientation - Certain plank orientations or parquetry can change how the room looks and feels which is why statement floors have become increasingly popular versus more basic aesthetics.
