Side cover for aluminum plinth to be placed as a recessed skirting board in installations with laminated plasterboard. Thanks to its geometry, the profile protects the lower edge of the plate and is installed making a recess in the lower area of the wall, generating an innovative suspended wall effect. Its straight lines finished with a small ridge create a smooth surface that prevents the accumulation of dirt and makes cleaning easier. In addition to being a skirting board, it can also be installed as a wall top finish.
It also works as an LED skirting board, installing an LED strip (Not included) in the interior gap, giving the profile a double functionality with a high decorative load.3
Its installation is flush with the wall, so it is recommended for use in installations that do not require leaving a space for the perimeter joint.

Materials
Skirting profile made by extrusion of aluminum. The anodizing process improves the corrosion resistance, mechanical resistance and appearance of profiles. It has the quality seal Qualanod, which guarantees the quality of the process and the resulting profiles. This seal regulates several tests: appearance and color, thickness measurements, sealing and impregnation control, abrasion resistance, lightfastness, acetic saline chamber and nitric acid immersion.
The lacquered finishes have a high quality and homogeneus surface. The lacquering has the quality seal Qualicoat, which guarantees the quality of the process and the final products.
The aluminum has excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight, tough, ductile, malleable and highly durable.
Installation
Easy-to-install profile. It can be installed before or after the work.
- Install the plasterboards on the walls leaving a space on the bottom to install the skirting.
- Apply mounting adhesive or polyurethane mastic on the rear of the profile.
- Place the profile and press it firmly to ensure an optimal adhesion.
- Remove the possible leftover adhesive and let dry.
You can also begin installing the profile and then continue installing the plasterboard panels.
Cleaning and maintenance
The product must be cleaned periodically with a soft cloth. If you use a neutral liquid cleaner, you must rinse the profile with cold water and dry it to remove the humidity excess. The persistent dirtiness can be removed by using cleaning approved agents lightly abrasive or a grid covered with polished powder neutral.
Steel wool, abrasive cleaners, souring products as well as strong acids (hydrochloric and perchloric),strong bases (caustic soda or ammonia) or carbonated solutions are not recommended. Citric acid is neither recommended because disolves the protective layer of the surface of aluminium. Waxes, petrolatum, lanolin or similar substances are not appropriate. Solvents containing haloalkanes (hydrofluoroether and chlorinated solvents) and curing accelerators containing chlorides should not be used (use special accelerators free of chlorides).
