Hi
Hoping someone can answer this for me :mad2:

I've searched the site, looked at the usual suspects, Genesis, homelux and schulter but still haven't found a stockist.

Looking for trim to cover an external corner (vertical). All of the trims I've used have had one profiled side whether square or round and the other side a straight edge. I trying to find someone who can supply an angled trim so that I can tile into the under side of the profile on both edges, not just one side. make sense ? Ideally I want square trim but would settle on profiled if I could even find that..

If you can see in the photo because of the angle the profile on either side would cover the tile edge if it was large enough, normally one side would just butt upto the flat side of the trim. Or am i missing something ?? :dunce:

Hoping this isn't a really stupid question, thanks in advance.

hi mutley,i have used a trim like this for steps for schluter,,not sure if they do one for wall tiling,basically both sides have an edge you can hide the cut tile under..is this what you mean? as oppose to finishing tile flush to a bare strait edge on one side? any reason you dont like using the norm trims mate? or is it a special request

Thanks guys,

Have always used "normal" one sided trim if you know what I mean. Doing a kitchen as a favour for a mate. They want square edge trim, on the top row of tiles and around internals it looks fine, on the external corners of the pipe boxes i'm not convinced where the "other " side of the tile butts up.

I did a search and found the attached photo, just what I need, I think.. Looks as though the profile sits at 45 degrees to the corner and the bedding piece giving me a profile on both sides rather than just one as per normal.

If my description doesn't make sense hopefully the photo will if you can imagine it sitting on an external 90 degree corner.

I'm not trying to "wrap" around the edges in an L shape, just a variation on a theme ...

Would settle for profiled if I could find it in place of square edged.

Thanks for the replies


Can I find a supplier.. Not a hope
