Versatex Enhances Beaded Panel Installation with New T Moulding Profile

Versatex introduces a time-saving moulding piece for joining long runs of all beaded profiles, especially their popular 4' x 8' and 4' x 10' Beaded Panels. It also leaves a cleaner, more architecturally-pleasing appearance. The new 'T' moulding will be 5/8'x 3' with a 1/2' cutout on each edge, leaving a receiver and cover for the normally exposed 4' edges of joining panels.

Reproduced from classic weatherboard designs, beaded weatherboard features a wide clapboard face highlighted by a distinctive bead at the base of the panel. Made of PVC, the siding features a historically correct 7/16-inch profile in a 6 1/2-inch exposure. Backed by a lifetime warranty, the low-maintenance siding looks like natural cedar but resists insects and moisture and won't rot or warp, the maker says. 866-393-8883.
