Molding/trim concealed slide-on system
A concealed slide-on trim attachment method reduces the work effort and materials involved to refinish walls, ceilings, or anywhere trim is attached on a building using the conventional nailing method. When removing the existing trim, this invention eliminates the damage to the trim, walls, and ceilings, along with the issues previously associated with the current fastening process. With this invention, refinishing or renovation of the trim, walls, ceilings or any other associated building components can be completed without damage to surrounding surfaces or the existing trim, making the trim reusable. This is a simple way to attach and detach the trim when compared to the current nailing method or use of other fasteners. During initial construction, this invention may also reduce time and man-hours required for installation.
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the top part has a curved configuration, in which, at the location of said transition, some of the carrier material has been replaced by a filler having a different composition than the carrier material, and that the decorative top layer (2) is continuous at the location of the transition (1 1).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.
WALL PANEL TRIM REVEAL SYSTEM AND METHOD
There is disclosed an improved wall panel trim reveal system and method which utilizes a set of vertical, horizontal and corner trim pieces designed to be fitted together. In an embodiment, the system includes horizontal trim pieces having at least one slope, vertical trim pieces having at least one tab forming a slot for receiving one or more horizontal trim pieces therein, wherein the horizontal and vertical trim pieces when installed together with wall panels forming a moisture drainage channel to direct moisture away from the wall.
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.
Modular panel system particularly for below grade applications
A modular wall panel system includes a pair of specially formed receiver strips, base and crown moldings, and a panel. The receiver strips are respectively mounted at selective upper and lower wall locations. Each receiver strip has an elongated base for mounting to the wall, and first and second flanges protruding therefrom, with each flange having a pair of apices particularly formed and located thereon. The crown and base moldings have bottom and rear surfaces, an inward facing ornate/sculpted surface, and a mating flange configured to cantilever away from the rear surface. The mating flange includes a pair of apices that are configured to be mated between the first and second flanges of the receiver strip, and be retained by its flange apices. The receiver strip also spaces the rear surface of the moldings away from the wall/studs, for the panel to be inserted behind the rear surface of each.
Expansion joint profile system
An expansion joint profile system for producing an expansion joint in the manufacture of a rigid floor covering includes a profile (1) comprising a first profile element (3) having a first support leg (5) provided for bearing on a substrate (18) and a first abutment leg (6) projecting upwardly therefrom. A second profile element (4) has a second abutment leg (6). A connection element (9) is formed in a ridge-like manner and extends in the longitudinal direction between the two profile elements (3, 4) and connects them to one another in the lower region. An insertion opening (10) is formed between the abutment legs and is open at the top and extends in the longitudinal direction (L). A sealing element (11) is formed in a T-shaped cross-section with a downwardly projecting insertion leg (12) for insertion into the insertion opening (10).
Flood resistant wall
A modular water-resistant paneling system and method is configured for being retrofitted into walls of existing finished basements or buildings and/or used in new construction, using components fastenable onto wall studs supporting drywall. The components include dimensionally stable water-resistant panels, and finishing strips having a backing flange and an upper lip portion sized and shaped to receive upper edge portions of the panels therein. The backing flange is fastenable to the wall studs while maintaining the panels in spaced relation therefrom, to maintain interior facing surfaces of the panels and drywall flush with one another. The upper lip portion includes opposing flanges configured for superposed engagement with adjacent portions of the interior facing surfaces of the panels and drywall. Mounting clips are sized and shaped for receiving a stud therein, and have a support flange for supporting lower edge portions of the panels.
Wall panel trim reveal system and method
There is disclosed an improved wall panel trim reveal system and method which utilizes a set of vertical, horizontal and corner trim pieces designed to be fitted together. In an embodiment, the system includes horizontal trim pieces having at least one slope, vertical trim pieces having at least one tab forming a slot for receiving one or more horizontal trim pieces therein, wherein the horizontal and vertical trim pieces when installed together with wall panels forming a moisture drainage channel to direct moisture away from the wall.
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.
