Installation Guide

CORNER INSTALLATION

SANDSTONE FLUSH OUTSIDE CORNER

Step 1

Install moisture barrier. Flush mounted corners can allow

moisture infiltration between the panel and the corner. A

moisture barrier may be required behind the panels and

corner extending a minimum of 4" from either side of the

corner. A self-adhering flashing membrane such as Grace

Vycor® is recommended.

Step 2

Flush mounted outside corners are 4' tall. The placement of

the corners will depend on how the top of the corner is

terminated. For applications over 48" in height, the corner

pieces can be stacked with the final corner cut to the

required height.

For wainscot applications, the corner

can be capped with a ledger attached to the tongue of the

top panel and cut with a compound miter at a 45° angle, or

a Ledger Outside Corner can be used.

The top of the corner should be placed 2" below the top of the

tongue on the top panel.

Step 3

The corner has screw guides or dimples to help position the

screws using the correct angle. There are also screw guides

along the sides. All screws are installed at an angle and at a

location where they will be concealed. Install two screws

through the top and at least 4 on each side. Good quality

exterior screws, #6 or #8 x 2 ½" are recommended.

Step 4

Install the remaining accessories and finish the panels. The

joints between the panels and the corner must be caulked

using a good quality caulk or textured grout to make a

water-tight installation.

Note: Sandstone Accessories

are universal and can be used

with all panel profiles
