While vaulted ceilings look grand and spacious, they can sometimes feel a bit empty. This is where our vaulted ceiling beams come in. They look like real wooden ceiling beams with authentic-looking grain while being made from high-density foam.
They're lightweight, durable, easy-to-install and maintain, unlike real wood making them perfect for commercial and residential spaces where you don’t want to deal with expensive cleaning and treatments for moisture and damage. Below you’ll find our collection of faux-wood ceiling beams designed specifically for vaulted, half-vaulted, cathedral, and sloped ceilings with styles ranging from smooth and modern to textured and rustic.

Knowing Which Size to Buy
Our collection of exposed faux-wooden beams for vaulted ceilings is available in lengths from 16 to 25 feet and widths from 4 to 30 inches, making them perfect for virtually any height including expansive cathedrals, atriums, and great rooms in a home. They’re easy to cut and modify so they’ll match your project no matter what angles and size room you have.
Choosing the right length depends on the actual length of your ceiling, but the width is what will need to match your style preference and whether you want your new beams to be a discreet addition or a bold statement.
- Small beams (4” - 8”) help ceilings to appear higher and the room more spacious.
- Medium beams (8” - 12”) are a popular choice for most living rooms and kitchens as they blend into the space and complement it without overpowering it.
- Large beams (12” - 30”) make a strong statement in a large and open room, becoming a feature vs. an accent.
Faux Wood Beams for Vaulted Ceilings Examples
Not sure which style, size, or finish will work with your space? We’ve got you covered! Here’s some of the advice we give to home and business owners, as well as contractors and design professionals when they know they want to use ceiling beams, but aren’t 100% certain which ones to choose.
Smooth-textured beams work perfectly in modern interiors such as in open-concept kitchens or loft-style living rooms with clean lines and minimal finishes, while grey-toned beams are popular for coastal-inspired interiors as they can remind you of driftwood and sun-bleached timber. The more pronounced wood grains add to the ambiance of a lodge where people want to escape to nature, or a rustic farmhouse interior as it carries the natural design aesthetic.
If you’re looking for inspiration, here are a few examples of how our customers, designers and contractors improved vaulted and half-vaulted ceilings with beams, adding personality to living rooms, kitchens and open spaces.
