Philadelphia Commercial Metropolis 6 6x48 Reclaimed Barnwood Commercial Luxury Vinyl Plank

Philadelphia Commercial Metropolis 6 (style #5M216) is a six-inch by 48-inch commercial luxury vinyl plank with the time-worn look of rustic, reclaimed barnwood, blending visuals from ten different wood species into city-named colorways. That mix of species gives each floor a patchwork of grain and tone that works in settings from contemporary to traditional. Built as commercial luxury vinyl tile with a urethane wear finish, Metropolis 6 installs by direct glue. Six colors, named for cities such as Chicago, Miami and Dallas, cover pale weathered boards through warm caramel and darker brown.

Best for: Restaurants, cafes, boutique retail, hotel lobbies, coworking spaces and offices that want a rustic, reclaimed wood character.

Colors

• Five Points 00235: a medium warm brown with a mix of tones, like a stack of salvaged boards.
• Miami 05216: the palest choice, a sun-bleached gray-beige barnwood.
• Chicago 05217: a mid gray-brown with a weathered, urban feel.
• Baltimore 06041: a caramel-honey tone with the most golden warmth.
• Los Angeles 07306: a light-to-mid tan that reads relaxed and natural.
• Dallas 07307: a deeper brown that grounds dining and lounge areas.

Why Choose Metropolis 6

• Reclaimed barnwood look built from ten wood species
• 6" x 48" plank format for a traditional board width
• Commercial luxury vinyl tile construction

Installation Methods

Metropolis 6 is approved for direct glue installation. The planks are adhered across their full surface, which keeps them stable under foot traffic and furniture in restaurants and stores. Stagger end joints randomly, at least several inches apart, to keep the reclaimed look natural rather than patterned. Check the subfloor for flatness and test moisture following the manufacturer's directions; the spec sheet links to Shaw's full documentation.

Specifier Tips

Metropolis 6 is at its best in rooms with plenty of open floor where the reclaimed variation can show. Baltimore brings warmth to a cafe with white tile and black metal, while Miami lightens a narrow retail space. Pull planks from several boxes during installation so species and tones are evenly mixed across the room.
