The FloPlast Two-Part Top Edge Trim is designed for professional builders and DIY enthusiasts who require a secure, clean finish when installing cladding beneath soffits or window ledges. Its primary benefit is the innovative two-piece design that simplifies the installation of the final board by allowing the back section to be mounted independently before the front is clipped into place. However, users should note that depending on the specific wall alignment, you may need a packing piece to ensure a perfectly secure fit for the terminal board.

This product is specifically designed for FloPlast 150mm Shiplap and 100mm V-Joint systems; performance cannot be guaranteed with other manufacturers.
Yes, it is made from durable PVC designed for exterior use, making it resistant to weathering and UV degradation.
Standard hand tools such as a saw for cutting to length, a screwdriver or drill for fixing, and a measuring tape are sufficient.
Yes, the PVC can be cut easily using a fine-toothed hand saw or a hacksaw.
It allows the back part to be fixed to the wall first, making it much easier to install the final cladding board which would otherwise be difficult to slide into a one-piece trim.
Ensure the back section is not obstructed by debris and check that the cladding board is fully seated in the channel.
Use a thin packing piece behind the cladding board to push it firmly against the front trim channel.
Use a spirit level to ensure the back section is perfectly plumb before fixing it to the battens.
To install, first measure and cut the back section to length. Fix the back section securely to your mounting battens using appropriate corrosion-resistant screws. Insert your top cladding board into the channel provided. Once confirmed that the board is aligned and secure, snap the front trim piece into the back section until it clicks into place. If you find the cladding board is loose within the channel, insert a small packing piece behind the board before clipping on the front trim to ensure a snug fit. Keep the PVC material clean by wiping it down with mild soapy water and a soft cloth; avoid using abrasive solvents or cleaners that may scratch the finish.
