SANDSTONE WINDOW AND DOOR TRIM

Step 1

Sandstone Window and Door Trim can be used as a utility

trim to terminate sections of NextStone™ panels, as a cap,

or as a trim piece around windows and doors. For most

applications, Sandstone Window and Door Trim must be

installed prior to the panels.

Step 2

Measure the total height of the wall before the Ledger

attachment to determine quantity and length/height of the

Window and Door Trim.

Step 3

Use a level when placing Window and Door Trim. Install

with dado away from the frame. Screw at a 45° angle

through the top of the piece and down along the inside

edge, making sure to attach securely to the underlying

substrate. To miter for use with ledger, cut the top of the

piece on a 15°angle, with the long side of the angle against

the wall.

Step 4

If desired, a wood rasp can be used to round edges of the door/window trim to provide a

more realistic look. Touch-up paint can be applied to the area formed with the rasp.

Always use a finished end to start and terminate a section of door window trim. Cut

ends can be butted tight and concealed with touch-up paint and caulk. End Ledger with a

factory finished end. (See ledger installation).

TRIM INSTALLATION

All products must be allowed to acclimate; removed fr om boxes and stored flat at

the installation site for a minimum of 48 hours or until properly acclimated prior to

installation. Heat and moisture cause expansion. Best results are obtained by installing

cool, dry product. NextStone™ does not warrant against gapping caused by expansion

and contraction.
