The Freefoam 90mm PVC Architrave is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a low-maintenance, polished finish around door and window frames. Featuring a durable bullnosed profile, it provides a clean aesthetic that resists the wear and tear associated with traditional timber molding, though its rigid PVC composition means it requires precise measuring as it does not flex like natural wood.

This product comes with a pre-finished brown surface and is not intended to be painted.
While the PVC material is moisture-resistant, it is primarily designed for internal finishing applications.
A fine-toothed hand saw or a miter saw with a blade suitable for plastics will provide the cleanest results.
Apply the adhesive in a continuous bead along the center of the board and press firmly; any squeeze-out should be wiped away immediately with a clean cloth.
While possible, adhesive is recommended for a cleaner finish without visible pin holes.
Ensure the wall surface is primed or free of loose paint; clean the back of the PVC profile with a solvent wipe before applying adhesive.
Use a miter block to ensure accurate 45-degree cuts; if a small gap remains, use a color-matched PVC filler.
For installation, ensure your wall surface is clean, dry, and free of dust. You can use a high-quality grab adhesive, silicone sealant, or cyanoacrylate (superglue) to fix the board to the substrate. Cut the architrave using a fine-tooth saw or a powered miter saw to ensure clean, square corners. Regarding maintenance, the PVC surface is non-porous; simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove surface dust or scuffs. Avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or strong solvents, as these may dull the factory-finished surface.
