Frieze Board

A frieze-board appearance can be created using the 3-1/2"
lineals in combination with new construction window starter or
J-channel used as a starter.

Materials needed: 3-1/2" or 5" lineals, new construction
window starter or J-channel.

Position short leg of new construction window starter against
the soffit or overhang and nail in place.

Snap lineal onto locking edge of the new construction window
starter between starter and soffit/overhang, and nail in place.

Trim 1-1/2" from the return leg of the overlapping lineal. Make
a cut 1-1/2" at the 90° bend of the lineal face and inside
(locking) edge. Trim 1-1/2" from nail flange and receiving
channel. Overlap lineals 1" by fitting the notched lineal over
the un-notched lineal.

An alternative to using new construction window starter is to
use 1/2" J-channel as a starter. Install J-channel with back
edge against soffit or overhang, then slide lineal over
J-channel.

Decorative Sunbursts

Sunbursts are not a product; they are an installation technique
you can use to create an outstanding decorative finish at
major accent areas such as gable ends or over garage door
openings. Creating a decorative sunburst isn’t difficult, but it
does take patience and attention to detail. If you’re ready for a
professional challenge, add a sunburst to your next
installation.

NOTE: Because each sunburst installation involves unique
dimensions and angles, the following instructions outline
the basic technique. You must adapt these instructions to
your specific installation.
