• Protects and Enhances:
  Besides aesthetics, the corner piece protects vulnerable edges from damage, wear, and moisture infiltration, extending the life of your shiplap installation.

Installation Tips

• Allow the corner piece and shiplap boards to acclimate to the indoor environment for at least 72 hours before installation to prevent warping or shrinkage.

• Use construction adhesive along with finishing nails or brad nails to secure the corner piece firmly in place.

• Leave a small expansion gap (approximately 1/8”) between the corner piece and the adjoining shiplap boards to accommodate natural wood movement.

• Ensure the corner piece is level and flush with the wall surface for the best visual outcome.

• After installation, finish with your choice of paint or stain to match or complement your shiplap walls.
