Coving installation device
A coving installation device includes a unitary structure having a first magnetic face, a second magnetic face, and a third magnetic face. The second face is joined with the first face by an arced side. The third face is joined with the second face by a linear side. The third face is joined with the first face by an angled side. The second face is perpendicular to the first face and the third face is perpendicular to the second face. The first, second, and third faces protrude from the arced, linear, and angled sides. A clean room installer using the coving installation device can independently install coving without assistance.
Floor-transition setting systems
A modular system for setting flooring transitions with adequate pressure during setup and curing of adhesive. The floor-transition-setting system includes a plurality of members such as a connector-body, a plurality of extension-bodies, a plurality of leg-members, and a plurality of pressure-feet. The connector-tubular-body being in functional and adjustable combination with each of the plurality of female-push-button-couplers. Each of the plurality of extension-bodies has a male-push-button-adjuster-coupler and an extension-tubular-body. The system may include one or more assemblies and may be configured without the use of tools.
Crown molding hanger
A crown molding hanger is provided. The crown molding hanger can be used to install a piece of crown molding requiring only the time and effort of a single craftsman. The crown molding hanger has a mounting member and a support member. The support member is removably coupled to the mounting member. In use, the mounting member is coupled to a surface via a coupler and then the support member is removably coupled to the mounting member. The support member has a support surface that engages and holds a length of crown molding while the coupler secures the mounting member, support member, and length of crown molding. The crown molding hanger can be reused many times while leaving no visible blemish to the wall during the typical installation process of a piece of crown molding using the crown molding hanger.
ASSEMBLY FOR COPING AND MOUNTING TRIM MOLDING
A method for installing a finish trim molding on a wall, the method includes mounting a trim holding device on the wall, the trim holding device comprising a mounting bracket configured to mount in facing contact with the wall, the mounting bracket further comprising a pair of mounting flanges disposed on the mounting bracket, the pair of mounting flanges being substantially horizontal and extending perpendicularly outward away from the mounting bracket and the wall; and mounting the finish trim molding onto the trim holding device, the finish trim molding defining a pair of channels, the pair of channels being substantially horizontal and defined perpendicular to a vertical rear surface of the finish trim molding, the pair of channels configured to receive the pair of mounting flanges.
Assembly for coping and mounting trim molding
An assembly for coping and mounting trim molding is provided. A trim holding device for mounting a finish trim molding and a coping device are provided. The coping device includes a platform, having a back, into which to place a finish trim molding for coping and cutting, and a blade assembly having a cutter blade and configured to be manually actuated by a lever. The blade assembly is adjustable and is configured to rotate. The cutter blade is configured specifically to a size and a shape of the finish trim molding to be cut and coped. The mounting device includes a bracket, having a pair of mounting flanges, configured for placement along a wall. The bracket and flanges form generally an F shape trim holding device. The flanges are configured to securely hold a finish trim molding without the use of nails, glues, and adhesives.

BASE CORNER MOLDING GUIDE SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE
The invention solves problems by providing a pre-manufactured molding corner piece made in an appropriate cross-section to match the molding or doorframe. The precut corners include a novel angled guide system that accurately positions molding strips in correct alignment with each precut corner and holds them there during installation. A bevel guard securely centers the molding strips during attachment and then is easily removed to accommodate final finish work. In use, molding is no longer required to be cut to form miter or bevel angles, but rather cut to a flat joint to match the distance in between two pre-manufactured corner pieces and engages the end of the preformed molding corner piece at a butt joint.
HANDHELD ROLLABLE TOOL FOR COVE BASE MOLDING INSTALLATION
The invention is a handheld rollable tool for installing cove base molding at a juncture between a wall and a floor. It has a base with a grippable handle, rotatable wheels attached to the base within a recess, and an outwardly extending baseplate with a flat exterior surface. The outer face of the baseplate can be covered with a detachable felt or textile material to facilitate gliding of the tool over the cove base molding while simultaneously cleaning and/or buffing of the outer surface of the cove base molding during its installation. The handheld rollable tool is designed to nestle against the wall and floor at their juncture and, during use, roll back-and-forth with an applied pressure aganst the wall.
