Installation Methods Cutting Panels Trims & Profiles Measuring The Room Fixing Through The Panels |

Panel Trims & ProfilesThere are a range of trims and profiles available for use with our waterproof wall panelling systems. These can make installation a lot easier as you do not have to 100% accurate with your cutting but they do detract from the overall aesthetic appeal of the panels. Try limiting their use to areas where there is no alternative - external corners being a typical case. The less trims you use, the better the finished job will look. Please ensure you order trims from the same manufacturer as the panel.
Decos Corner Trim 030 is a 2-part trim and is suitable for use on internal or external corners. Decos Coving Trim is a 1-part trim and is designed to clip onto the top of wall panels (it will not clip on to ceiling panels). It can be used with just wall panels or wall panels fitted in conjunction with ceiling panels. Decos Capping Trim is used on exposed ends where it provides a finished edge.

The Grosfillex Multi Tim can be used as an internal corner joint (1st picture) or as a 2-part Capping Trim (2nd picture) by trimming off the "leg" with a sharp knife. This is useful when used for edging around ceiling panels as standard 1 part capping trim is not really suitable for this situation. Grosfillex External Corner is a 2-part trim for use around windows etc. Grosfillex coving trim can be used with just panelling, just ceiling panelling or rooms where the walls and ceiling are being panelled. Grosfillex Capping Trim is ideal for use on exposed ends of panels where it provides a finished edge. Internal corners can also be butt-jointed after trimming off the tongue, and sealed with silicone sealant - we recommend Dow Corning silicone for bathrooms, as in our experience this gives the best resistance to mould growth. Horizontal joints against baths or shower trays can use the same technique. The result is a very neat joint that almost disappears. It is also possible to bend the panels into corners - this has some drawbacks and is best performed by experienced fitters - click here for more information on bending the panels.
