Our favorite shake siding panel available is found over at Exteria in the form of the Hand Split Shake. This is a very deeply ingrained Cedar Shake look alike with amazing depth of profile and colors. It is rock solid and gets great comments from owners and admirers alike. When applied by an experienced installer you cannot tell where one section ends and another starts adding to the realism. Of course this comes in a nearly maintenance free vinyl for years of enjoyment without the work.
