TruLog Siding Accreditations

Rat Stop/Starter

This piece is your starting point for the board and batten siding. It is installed at the bottom of the wall just like other starter material, and prevents any rodents from getting behind the siding since the board and batten panels lays on top of the stop.

The bottom of the panel is covered by the angle of the rat stop piece.

J-Channel

J-Channel is a type of channel named after its shape according to the alphabet letter it resembles, “J”. J-Channel is installed around doors and windows to accept the TruLog log cabin siding.

The j-channel fits tight against the outer edge of your doors and windows and is screwed into the wall, not the window itself. When installing the log siding, the siding slides into the channel to hide the cut siding.

Sill

Sill is used to cover the cut edges of steel when you cut your panel down to fit around your doors and windows.

Bold Band Board

The bold band board is used to transition one section of the board and batten on top of another. The band board is used to cap the lower panel sections and also act as the starting point for the next section above it.

Inside Corner

For inside corners, we use double j-channel, butted together. You can bury one
j-channel in the corner and the other one can butt next to it.

Corner Base & Cap

Corner bases and caps are used to cover up the corners of your house and hide the cut metal siding. A corner base is applied to the home so the corner cap can be snapped on over the top.

Corners provide your home with that finished look as well as protects the end of your TruLog steel board & batten siding.

Bold Window & Door Trim

Bold window and door trim is an optional trim piece that gives your doors and windows a bold, trimmed out, look. This trim piece is installed after all your siding is up and you are ready to finish the job. With the bold window and door trim, you still need to use j-channel around your doors and windows and then this trim piece slides in between the window frame and the j-channel for a tight, friction hold.

Outlet J-Block

Outlet J-block or utility j-block is used for your outlets, spigots, and any smaller exterior pipe or wire penetrations. It can split in half to fit around these areas and the beauty ring is adjustable to snap into the base. This j-block makes it easier to install our siding around those exterior penetrations.

Light J-Block

Light J-Block is very similar to the outlet/utility j-block and serves as the attachment point of your lights. You mount this to the wall, cut the appropriate hole out for your wires, side around it, snap the beauty ring on, and then mount your light to it. Makes installing lights in the siding a breeze.
