Preparation and fixing
The profile arrives primed and ready to use. Before installation, inspect the length for any damage in transit. The chamfered and rounded edge is factory-finished, so no additional edge treatment is needed. For shelving applications, secure the profile to panel edges using wood adhesive and panel pins or screws. For cabinetry, apply adhesive to the back face and clamp firmly until set. The primed surface can be painted, stained, or left as-is depending on your finish requirements.

- No edge machining required
- Apply wood adhesive to back face for fixing to panels
- Allow adhesive to cure fully before handling shelves or cabinets
- Primed surface accepts paint or stain finishes
Pre-installation checks
Measure your project carefully and plan your cutting layout to ensure you have sufficient length. The moisture resistant treatment is already applied, so no additional sealing is required before installation. Store the profile flat in a dry location before use to maintain the primed finish. Ensure the surface you are bonding to is clean and free from dust or debris for best adhesion results.
- Confirm dimensions suit your project before purchase
- Store flat and dry before installation
