MOLDING PIECES, MOLDING PIECE REMOVABLY ENGAGING DEVICES, KITS AND SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
A molding piece, comprising a molding piece structure and at least a first magnetic element, wherein cross-sections of the molding piece structure along imaginary planes perpendicular to the molding piece structure imaginary axis are substantially the same size and shape. In some embodiments, the first magnetic element is in a first groove in the molding piece structure, cross-sections of the first magnetic element along said imaginary planes are substantially the same size and shape, and/or the molding piece structure further comprises a protruding rib. Also, a removably engaging device, comprising a removably engaging device structure and a first element, wherein the first element comprises a magnetic element and/or a magnet-adhering element. In some embodiments, a removably engaging device structure comprises a rib and/or a groove. Also, kits and systems comprising molding pieces and removably engaging devices, and methods.
Magnetic Building Trim System
A building trim system includes one or more trim members and one or more second magnetically attractive members. The magnetically attractive members are secured to a building structure, usually outside building siding. The trim members include a rear side with first magnetically attractive members attractive to the second magnetically attractive members. The trim members are attached to the building structure via magnetic forces of attraction between the first magnetically attractive members and second magnetically attractive members. The first magnetically attractive members may be magnets and the second magnetically attractive members may be pieces of metal or vice versa.
MAGNETIC ATTACHMENT ASSEMBLY FOR ATTACHING TRIM BOARD TO WALLS, CEILINGS AND OTHER SURFACE STRUCTURES
A magnetic attachment assembly for attaching a first object to a second object includes a first and second ferromagnetic devices possessing an attractive magnetic property pulling each toward one another. The first ferromagnetic device is attached to the first object and an adhesive layer on the second ferromagnetic device is for attaching the second ferromagnetic device to the second object. A removable separator is initially positioned intermediate the first ferromagnetic device and the second ferromagnetic device and is frictionally held in place prior to attachment of the second ferromagnetic device to the second object. During installation, the user pushes the attachment assembly onto the second object, pulls the first ferromagnetic device away from the second ferromagnetic device, removes the separator, and then pushes the first ferromagnetic device back to the second ferromagnetic device thereby attaching the first object to the second object.
