Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Weatherboard Cladding Two Part Edge Trim (FC301E3SG) is designed for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve a seamless, clean finish on their exterior cladding projects. Its primary benefit is the innovative two-part system that eliminates the frustration of sliding boards into fixed channels, especially in awkward or tight installation spots. A key caveat to note is that this specific trim is precision-engineered for use with 170mm weatherboard cladding, so it is not suitable for cladding boards of differing widths.

FAQs

Can I use this with 150mm cladding?

No, this trim is specifically designed for 170mm weatherboard cladding.

How do I cut the trim?

The trim can be cut to length using a standard fine-tooth hacksaw or power saw suitable for PVC materials.

Does it come with fixings?

No, you should use appropriate exterior-grade fixings suitable for the surface you are attaching to.

Is the Storm Grey color permanent?

Yes, the color is integrated into the material and is designed to resist fading from UV exposure.

Can I paint this trim?

It is not recommended to paint the trim as it is finished for durability and the paint may not adhere properly to the PVC surface.

Troubleshooting

Top cover will not snap into place

Check that the base section is not overtightened or bent, and ensure that the cladding board is not protruding into the groove area.

Trim feels loose

Ensure the base section is fixed securely to the substrate at the recommended intervals.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly faster installation in tight spaces
  • Snap-fit top cover hides fixings for a cleaner look
  • High-quality construction ensures long-term durability
  • Avoids the difficulty of aligning boards in traditional rigid channels

Cons

  • Limited to 170mm weatherboard profiles
  • Requires proper alignment of the base section for the cover to snap correctly
  • Color matching is specific to Storm Grey

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Begin by measuring the vertical edge where the trim will be installed. Cut the base section of the trim to the desired length. Secure the base section firmly to the substrate using appropriate fixings, ensuring it is level. Once the 170mm weatherboard cladding is positioned and fixed to the wall, simply align the top cover and apply even pressure along its length until it snaps firmly into the base.

Compatibility: This trim is exclusively compatible with 170mm weatherboard cladding profiles. Do not attempt to use it with thicker or thinner cladding, as the snap-fit mechanism will not engage correctly.

Care: The trim is designed to be maintenance-free. To keep it looking new, occasionally wipe it down with a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove surface dust or environmental grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or solvent-based cleaners that could damage the Storm Grey finish.
