Dentil Mouldings
Generally
Dentils (also known as corbels or modillions) offer a decorative element ideally suited to more exclusive homes and apartments. Our dentils are moulded in polyurethane and pre-finished in a satin white to match the finish of our fascia and soffit systems.
Installation
New Work
On new work, these dentils should be fixed to the soffit before the soffit is installed. This is done by screwing through the back of the soffit into the larchwood footplate at the required intervals and then lifting the soffit (with dentils attached) and fixing to the roofline in the normal manner.
Refurbishment Work
Refurbishment work is slightly different because you will not be afforded the opportunity of fixing the dentils through the back of the soffit. In this instance you must unscrew the larchwood plate and remove from the dentil. Fix the larchwood plate to the existing soffit with screws. The dentil can now be placed over the larchwood plate and fixed into position by either glue or discreetfixed with 30mm polypins.
