Dentil Molding
Vinyl Siding
Snap a chalk line 6-1/2˝ down from
the soffit panel location (chalkline.)
(Fig.1)
Prepare the dentil molding either
by cutting the soffit flange to create
a tab, or by removing a portion of
the upper soffit flange and slotting.
Center of slots should be spaced 16˝
apart. (Fig. 2)
Butt the dentil molding to the chalk
line and nail into place every 16˝.
If siding panels are to be terminated
with finish trim to complete sidewall
application, dentil mold should
be slotted and nailed prior to final
course of siding. Cover slots
with utility trim. (Fig. 3)
Brick, Stucco
or Masonry Installation
If a nailable, flat surface is not
available, dentil mold can be applied
as a decorative element by placing
bottom edge of dentil mold into
utility trim and nailing tabs to a
1˝x6˝ or 1˝x8˝ board. (Fig. 4)
