The Knotwood Aluminium Cladding Starter Trim is an essential component for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts seeking a high-quality, durable foundation for exterior cladding systems. Engineered to provide a secure and clean starting point, this trim offers the aesthetic appeal of a Queensland Walnut finish with the superior structural integrity of aluminium, though its 5650mm length requires careful handling and transport considerations during installation.

The trim is finished with a high-quality, durable topcoat that is designed for longevity; painting is generally not recommended as it may void the benefits of the factory finish.
No, it is made from high-grade aluminium, which is naturally resistant to rust, making it an excellent choice for coastal environments.
Due to the 5.65-meter length, you will require a vehicle with a roof rack system designed for long loads or a professional delivery service.
Knotwood aluminium products are non-combustible, offering superior fire resistance compared to timber alternatives.
It is recommended to use screws specified for aluminium cladding installations to ensure compatibility with the thermal expansion of the metal.
Measure twice and cut using a miter saw equipped with a non-ferrous metal cutting blade.
Wipe down with a damp, lint-free cloth; the UV-stable coating is designed to maintain its sheen with simple cleaning.
For installation, ensure you have a metal-cutting saw blade suitable for aluminium to maintain a clean edge on the 5650mm sections. The trim should be fixed directly to the building framework, ensuring it is perfectly level before attaching your first row of cladding boards. Compatibility is optimized with Knotwood cladding systems, though it can be adapted to other systems if dimensions align.
Care instructions are minimal: because of the durable topcoat, the trim does not require staining or oiling. If it accumulates dust or debris, simply wash the surface with water and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these may compromise the integrity of the finish over time.
