Building Skirting Base
A mobile home skirting base comprising: a horizontal surface; and two substantially equal, substantially symmetrical vertical surfaces co-extruded with the horizontal surface forming a channel to insert a mobile home skirting panel wherein the vertical surfaces each having an inwardly oriented retention edge that secure the mobile home skirting panel. The height of the vertical surfaces and the inward orientation of the vertical surfaces' retention edges, along with the other aspects of the invention, allows the mobile home skirting base to provide strong support, stabilization, and protection of the skirting panels.
Cladding
An external cladding system includes at least one panel of sheet material, a series of vertically and horizontally oriented panel mounting extrusions, and a number of spaced apart apertures passing through a topmost/bottom most horizontal panel mounting extrusions on a wall. The apertures extend along a longitudinal axis of an internal horizontal portion of the topmost and bottom-most panel mounting extrusions. In use, the at least one panel is held in place on the panel mounting extrusions via: capping extrusions and resilient sealing strips, which are located between the panel and the capping extrusions. One or more spacer elements are located on the horizontally-oriented panel mounting extrusions, which support the bottom edge of a panel.

DIMPLED TILE TRIM
A dimpled tile trim, comprising one or more anchoring legs, one or more support braces, a profile and/or one or more deformed portions, and one or more dimples. The dimples allow the tile installation gaps between the profile and the anchoring legs to be narrowed in an even and consistent manner. Force may be applied to the deformed portions, such that they bend at the dimple, which narrows the tile installation gap. In this manner, the dimpled tile trim can be bent or adjusted to accommodate a range of tile sizes and thicknesses.
ADJUSTABLE MOLDING ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS
Adjustable molding assemblies and methods for bridging a gap between building elements are provided. The molding assembly includes a molding that includes a cover portion with opposing ends that are configured to contact outer surfaces of adjacent building elements. At least one flexible attachment portion extends from a lower surface of the cover portion, the at least one attachment portion including one or more interlocking elements. A track includes one or more grooves for receiving the attachment portion. One or more complementary interlocking elements are associated with each groove for retaining the attachment portion.
IMPROVEMENTS IN AND RELATING TO CLADDING
An external cladding system includes at least one panel of sheet material, a series of vertically and horizontally oriented panel mounting extrusions, and a number of spaced apart apertures passing through a topmost/bottom most horizontal panel mounting extrusions on a wall. The apertures extend along a longitudinal axis of an internal horizontal portion of the topmost and bottom-most panel mounting extrusions. In use, the at least one panel is held in place on the panel mounting extrusions via: capping extrusions and resilient sealing strips, which are located between the panel and the capping extrusions. One or more spacer elements are located on the horizontally-oriented panel mounting extrusions, which support the bottom edge of a panel.
Skirting board and an improved method for manufacturing a skirting board or finishing profiled section
The present invention relates, on the one hand, to a skirting board for a wall of a space or finishing profiled section for floor covering, comprising a body composed of at least a carrier material and a decorative top layer, in which said body comprises a longitudinal part which forms at least a part of the front side of the skirting board or the finishing profiled section, and a top part which forms at least a part of the top side of the skirting board or the finishing profiled section, in which the transition (1 1) between the longitudinal part and the top part has a curved configuration, in which, at the location of said transition, some of the carrier material has been replaced by a filler having a different composition than the carrier material, and that the decorative top layer (2) is continuous at the location of the transition (1 1). On the other hand, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing such a skirting board.
Rail Profile with Attachment Mechanism and Related Methods
A profile system (1) for fastening objects to a room wall provided with a plate covering comprises at least one elongated rail profile (2), which extends in a longitudinal direction (L) and has a constant cross-section, and at least one plug element (3), which is designed to be fastened directly and detachably to the rail profile (2) in a plug-in manner. The rail profile (2), viewed in cross-section, has a substantially rectangular base section (6), whose depth (T) is adapted to the thickness of the plate covering and which is provided on its front side with a receiving groove (7) extending in the longitudinal direction (L) with a groove opening (9) accessible from the outside, and at least one fastening leg (13) which adjoins the rear side of the base section (6) substantially flush and projects outwards from the base section (6).
Trim System With Seam Covering
A seam cover member and related building trim system. The seam cover includes an intermediate web with two opposite flanges extending in opposite lateral directions from an edge of the web, forming a general T-shaped cross-section. The seam cover is configured to be installed with the web between two adjacent pieces of building trim with the respective flanges concealing an edge of one of the trim pieces. The seam cover is fixed to one, but not both pieces of building trim.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WALL PANEL TRIM INSTALLATION
There is disclosed a system and method for wall panel trim installation. In an embodiment, the system comprises a plurality of horizontal and vertical trim profiles having a back plate adapted to receive a top cap within a bracket, the bracket including a mounting base and walls extending up from either side of the base; and at least one flange formed on the walls and extending outwardly, the at least one flange including a shallow channel; wherein, upon receiving the top cap within the bracket, the at least one flange forming the shallow channel and a portion of the top cap secure an edge of a wall panel therebetween. In an embodiment, the shallow channel formed within the at least one flange is adapted to receive an adhesive or sealant. The top cap is partially received within the bracket such that a clearance is formed between a bottom of the mounting base and a bottom of the top cap. Back plate and top cap pairs allow installation of wall panels placed into position without fasteners.
