FAQs
What are trims and why are they important for my decking or cladding project?
Trims provide a clean, professional finish to the edges and corners of your decking or cladding, enhancing both the overall appearance and long-term durability of your project. They’re ideal for framing steps, covering exposed edges, and finishing corners for a neat and polished result.
What types of trims do you offer?
We offer a range of composite and aluminium trims, available in colours to match our decking ranges. Our selection includes skirting boards and corner trims suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
What are composite trims made of?
Our composite trims are made from the same blend of recycled hardwood, polyethylene, and bonding agents, as used in our Signature composite decking. Our range of capped trims matches with our ProDeck composite decking range.
When should I use aluminium trims instead of composite ones?
Aluminium trims are ideal when you’re looking for a sleek, modern finish or require a more robust and hard-wearing option. They offer excellent wear resistance and provide a premium, high-end appearance—perfect for contemporary designs or high-traffic areas.
What fixings do I need for composite decking?
For composite products, we recommend using the appropriate starter clips, T-clip fixings, and stainless steel decking screws. These are specifically designed to ensure a secure installation and a clean, professional finish with minimal visible fixings.
Do you offer fixings for bamboo decking?
Yes, we provide bamboo decking fixing clips and starter clips, both specifically designed for bamboo boards. These ensure secure and precise installation and necessary screws.
What accessories are available for Millboard® decking?
Millboard® accessories include Durafix ‘lost head’ fixings, multi-spacers, DuoFix guides, and trims like internal/external corners, starter trims, and perforated closures. This will help with hidden fixings and creating a flawless finish.
Are your fixings and trims built to last?
Yes. All our trims and fixings are made from high-quality materials designed to match the lifespan of your decking for long-term performance.
Do you offer any finishing accessories for exposed ends?
We offer composite end caps, adhesive, and decking reviver to secure and refresh your installation, ensuring a polished, long-lasting result.
