Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam PVC Architrave in Chartwell Green is designed for homeowners and contractors looking for a low-maintenance, high-quality finishing touch for door and window frames. This 40mm x 6mm trim offers a professional bullnosed profile that resists rot and warping, providing a durable alternative to traditional timber. While it is incredibly resilient, users should note that the rigid PVC construction requires careful cutting to ensure perfectly square joints during installation.

FAQs

Can I paint this PVC architrave?

It is designed with a durable pre-finished Chartwell Green surface and does not require painting.

Is this product suitable for exterior use?

This specific architrave is intended for interior finishings.

What is the best way to cut the trim?

A fine-toothed hand saw or a power miter saw with a blade suitable for plastics will provide the cleanest cut.

Can I use nails to install this?

While adhesives are recommended for a cleaner finish, small non-corrosive pins can be used if they are punched below the surface.

What should I do if the trim arrives slightly curved?

As it is a long, flexible PVC product, it can often be straightened during the installation process by applying firm pressure and adequate adhesive.

Does it come in other colors?

This guide focuses on the Chartwell Green variant; please check current availability for other color options.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive not sticking properly

Ensure the wall and the back of the PVC trim are completely clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before applying the adhesive.

Joints do not meet perfectly at corners

Use a miter block or a compound miter saw to ensure your 45-degree angles are precise and consistent across all pieces.

Trim bowing along the wall

Use more adhesive contact points or temporary masking tape to hold the trim flat against the wall until the glue has fully cured.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot and moisture
  • Requires no painting or sanding
  • Easy to clean and maintain
  • Lightweight and simple to handle
  • Compatible with multiple common adhesives

  • Rigid material requires sharp tools for clean cuts
  • Chartwell Green color may not match all existing timber stains

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward. Measure your door or window opening accurately, allowing for mitered corners. Once measured, apply your chosen adhesive—such as a high-quality grab adhesive or PVC superglue—along the back of the trim. Press firmly against the wall and frame, holding it in place until the adhesive sets. For care, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners that might scratch the finish. Simply use a soft, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water to keep the Chartwell Green surface looking pristine.
