The Freefoam Weatherboard Cladding Universal Edge Trim is designed for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve a professional finish on their exterior cladding projects. Its primary benefit is the ability to cleanly hide exposed cut edges and seal the perimeter of an installation, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and improved weather resistance. Please note that at 3 metres in length, this trim requires careful planning for cuts to minimize waste and ensure consistent color matching across your specific installation area.

This trim is specifically designed for 170mm weatherboard cladding; it may not provide a secure or aesthetic fit for different board widths.
No, the Colonial Blue finish is a durable, pre-finished coating intended for long-term use without the need for painting.
A standard fine-toothed hand saw or a circular saw with a blade suitable for plastic/PVC will provide a clean, accurate cut.
While it is a universal edge trim, it is primarily intended for board terminations. For specific 90-degree corner joints, check your project requirements for dedicated corner profiles.
The trim should be fixed to the supporting timber battens using stainless steel or corrosion-resistant fixings.
Check that the fixing points are spaced correctly according to your cladding manufacturer's guidelines and ensure screws are driven into solid timber framing.
Ensure the cladding board edge is cut perfectly straight and that no debris is lodged inside the trim channel.
To install, ensure your timber battens are correctly positioned around the perimeter of the area being clad. Measure the height or width of the run and cut the 3-metre trim to size using a fine-toothed saw. Apply the trim to the edge of your battens before or during the installation of the cladding boards, depending on your sequence. Ensure the trim is fixed with corrosion-resistant screws or fixings appropriate for exterior PVC cladding. For care, simply wipe down the trim periodically with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to remove dust or organic growth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the Colonial Blue finish.
