Bullnose Boards - Edges of Decks and Steps
Verified by manufacturer 4 months ago
Bullnose-profile board for edges of decks and steps.
Application
The Bullnose Board is a 150 mm-wide edging with a bullnosed front edge. It is a rigid product used for straight runs on edges of decks, steps and seating.
Installation:
The Bullnose boards would normally be fully supported along their entire length but can span up to 400 mm centres and should be installed with two Durafix screws every 300 mm.
The maximum overhang of the Bullnose board is 40 mm from the front of the fascia. Both the standard deck boards (32 mm) and the thinner fascia board (16 mm) can be used as a fascia under this product. The maximum size of cut-out for LED lighting under this board should be 17 x 9 mm and should be a minimum of 11 mm from the front of the board edge.
Description
The Bullnose Board is designed to be used in a wide range of applications, from under-lip lighting to coping for planters and seating, this adaptable profile opens up a wide range of possibilities.
The structural core of the Bullnose Board is a blend of natural minerals bonded in a polymer resin, with long fibre reinforcement for mechanical strength and durability. The top surface is a textured, resilient Lastane® layer which is chemically melded to the core and hand-tinted using 2K component pigments that resist fading and UV damage.
Features and benefits:
- Hand moulded and coloured - Skilfully hand-crafted to ensure a high quality, premium product
- Natural wood look - Moulded from selected oak for an organic, realistic wood-grain appearance.
- UK made, UK backed - Designed and manufactured in the UK, tested independently globally.
- Recycled materials - Recycled materials and renewable biopolymers are used within our boards.
- Integrated UV stabilizers - UV stabilized for better performance and fade resistance over time.
- Wood free - Wood free composition prevents rot, warping and insect infestation.
- Low maintenance - No staining or oiling needed. Only seasonal cleaning required.
- ‘Lost-head’ fixings - Durafix fixings are virtually hidden beneath the unique Lastane surface.
- Soft-touch surface - Unique Lastane layer means no splinters on the surface.
- Mould resistant - Unlike wood, it is actively resistant to mould and fungus.
- High slip-resistance - Lower slip potential than wood due to the pliable Lastane layer.
- Moisture resistant - Due to the non-porous composition, no sealing is required.
