Installing Windsor Ledgers

1. Attaching Accessories
  • Windsor Faux Panels™ are designed to work with accessory pieces.
  • Accessory pieces make the job go smoother with professional results.
  • With accessories, there are no exposed edges and no caulking required.
  2. Adding a Ledger
  • The Ledger Piece makes an ideal transition to other materials.
  • The Ledger can attach in 3 different ways.
  • In this application, the ledger will go directly over the top row tongue.
  • First, measure the total length of ledger required.
   
         
   
3. Measure and Cut the Ledger
  • It is important to end both sides of the wall with finished ledger ends.
  • It is best to take the total length, and cut equal amounts from the center of the wall.
  • This allows a tight union between the pieces and finished edges on each side.
  • Measure and cut each ledger for a center union.
  • Cut each end square for a good fit.
         
   
4. Attaching the Ledger to the Wall
  • Toe Screw the Ledger to the underlying Substrate, with screws placed minimum 16" apart.
  • Additional gluing is recommended
  • Before gluing, lightly sand the ledger gluing surface for better bonding.
  5. Fit and Transition
  • Interior applications do not require any flashing.
  • Transitional materials fit flush onto the ledger, covering the screws for a professional finish.
  6. Exterior Flashing
  • Exterior applications require flashing for moisture control.
  • The flashing covers the screw attachments for professional results.
