• Very decorative – Fits fully from frame to wall surface. Gives a uniform and deep look.
• Durable material that won’t warp or deteriorate and will last season after season.
• Used for thick wall openings in residential, commercial and industrial environments.

Applications

Installation Tips

• Check the actual wall width before installing – 12″ may be too narrow for some stud configurations.
• Put the jamb in the opening and use a level to make sure it’s plumb and square.
• Secure with appropriately sized screws or nails into the wall structural layer.
• Put some expandable foam in the gaps between the jamb and the wall and let it harden.
• Paint or veneer the completed cabinet as required to match the other joinery finishes in the premises either domestic or commercial.
