The present invention provides a wall paneling system that is completely mechanical and does not require the use of adhesives in attaching panels to the walls. The system comprises wall panels having a core with a decorative surface attached to one side and profiled edges that connect to each other by push click, panel connector clips (PCCs) that further connect and secure the interconnecting panels to the walls; and corner moldings for use in paneling adjoining walls meeting at a corner via tongue and groove. The PCCs and corner moldings attach to the walls by mechanical fastening and provide an air space between the walls and the wall panels. Since the wall panels are not directly connected or adhered to the wall, the system allows the panels to be easily replaced by removing and inserting from the PCCs and corner moldings. By using specially adapted bottom seals, seals in the corner moldings and sealant between the panels, the paneling system can be made impermeable to water and is therefore especially useful in area wet areas such as bathrooms.

A system comprising a first baseboard element, a second baseboard element, and a spline configured to couple with the first baseboard element and the second baseboard element. Another system comprising a first crown element, a second crown element, and a spline configured to couple with the first crown element and the second crown element. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.

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.

A system for crown molding that enables safely incorporating electrical and communications cabling within crown molding by creating one or more protected paths which inherently prevent overly sharp bends in crown molding corners and by mitigating damage from penetrating punctures through a decorated face designed to fracture when improperly penetrated by a screw or nail, and enables the secure installation of hardware either concealed within the molding or securely and favorably positioned through the decorative face to view or sense a room, and enables additional cable capacity that is concealed within a light reflector to increase lighting efficacy as well as power and data delivery capacity.

The invention relates to a method for arranging a flash coving profile in the transition between a floor and a wall, wherein the method comprises: providing an end element, the end element comprising a transition part having an outer surface, an upper edge and a first side, the first side to be placed against the first end of the metal sheet, and a wall fixator part, wherein the wall fixator part comprises a holding space to hold the upper edge of the transition part and the first edge of the metal sheet at its first end, fixing the wall fixator part to the wall, placing the upper edge of the transition part in the holding space of the wall fixator part and fixing the transition part to the floor and/or the wall, and placing the first edge of the flash coving profile at its first end in the holding space such that the first side of the transition part is placed against the first end of the metal sheet, and the outer surface of the transition part lies substantially flush with the flooring of the flash coving profile.

In one embodiment, a system comprises a first baseboard element, a second baseboard element, and a spline configured to couple with the first baseboard element and the second baseboard element. In another embodiment, a system comprises a first crown element, a second crown element, and a spline configured to couple with the first crown element and the second crown element. In another embodiment, a system comprises a crown spline, a baseboard spline, and a wall element configured to be coupled with the crown spline and the baseboard spline. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.

A construction element is provided for forming a corner of a surface of a building, the surface including wall panels attached to framing studs. The construction element includes: a corner-forming surface that that is shaped to extend, in a cross-sectional view, between two separate wall panels, such that ends of the corner-forming surface, as viewed in the cross-sectional view, substantially match respective corners of the wall panels. The construction element may be provided in multiple sections that are placed end to end and connected together.

Modular Construction elements are characterized by a variety of profiles and associated interchangeable components and/or inserts. Together, these structures and components allow the end user to incorporate dissimilar or similar materials having a wide range of thicknesses and geometries into a flanged associated with the construction elements and tailored to its particular profile. Through the use of a unique set of interconnection methods and systems, a relatively small set of elements can be arranged to protect the surfaces of a wide array of interior surface treatments and the intersections of those surfaces. Dimensional material can be configured to provide the desired form of intersection and transition type—e.g., horizontally to horizontally, horizontal to vertically, vertical to vertical, vertically to horizontally, and the like—while at the same time creating and maintaining a sealed, sanitary and watertight condition within a specified area.

A corner protector member for establishing and finishing a transition between a first surface, a second surface and a third surface, the first, second and third surfaces forming an inside corner. One corner protector embodiment includes a read face portion oriented inwardly in relation to the inside corner, which is securable to the inside corner, and from which integrally extends an external frontal or basal face portion, the lateral edges of which are securable alone or with the addition of an integral pin or barb to the inside corner, positively locking and engaging with the interior corner surfaces so as to firmly anchor therein and thereto.
