5/4 x 4 Advantage Mahogany™ Wood Decking Shorts – Refined Strength with Classic Warmth

Bring timeless appeal and reliable performance to your next project with 5/4 x 4 Advantage Mahogany™ Decking Shorts, made from high-grade Red Balau. Known for its rich reddish-brown color, smooth texture, and uniform grain, this tropical hardwood offers natural resistance to decay, insects, and the elements—making it a popular choice for premium exterior and interior applications.

With a 5/4 thickness for enhanced strength and a 4-inch face for fine detail work, these short-length boards offer exceptional design flexibility—perfect for areas where full-length decking isn’t practical or where creative layouts are key.

Ideal for Detail-Driven Projects That Require Strength and Precision

5/4 x 4 Advantage Mahogany™ decking shorts are great for:

Intricate decking designs like herringbone, chevron, and inlay borders
Docks, balconies, and tight decks, where short boards simplify handling
Stair treads, risers, fascia, and edge trim, benefiting from the added thickness
Fences, screening, and decorative railing panels
Outdoor kitchen framing, islands, and bar fronts
Accent ceilings, soffits, and architectural walls
Benches, planter boxes, furniture, and trim work

Shorts allow for better material efficiency, reduced waste, easier transport, and more layout creativity—without sacrificing the dependable quality and natural beauty of Advantage Mahogany™. Whether you're a contractor or DIY enthusiast, these decking shorts deliver refined durability and visual charm in every board.

Boycott the Middle Man

Discover How IpeDepot.com Offers Sustainable Ipe Decking at Such Low Prices

Since the inception of our company, we've purposely avoided, and have boycotted anyone in our procurement staff and our producers throughout Brazil from dealing with lumber brokers, traders, or mills with a reputation of non-compliance. While other company's might fall for the tricks and deceptive practices that many brokers and mills employ, we've heard enough horror stories from customers that have been burned to know that it's sometimes better to take the more righteous path. This simple action of avoiding the middleman has enabled us to consistently import and ship only the best, sustainably harvested Ipe wood decking to you, our valued customers.
