Laminate Scotia Beading LD37 Beech

Beech LD37 Laminate Scotia Beading covers the expansion gap left between the edge of your laminate floor and the skirting board. Every floating floor needs room to move as temperature and humidity change throughout the year. In fact, that gap is not a fault – it is a requirement. Furthermore, Beech Laminate Scotia Beading is the clean, low-profile way to conceal it.

Where to use Beech Laminate Scotia Beading

Beech is a warm, light golden tone with a fine, straight grain pattern. It works well alongside natural oak, beech and light-toned laminate floors and sits closest to the Midnight Oak LD10 door bars in our laminate range. For skirting boards with a light wood stain or natural timber finish, this shade keeps the trim consistent with the floor without drawing attention to itself. Additionally, it suits bright, light-filled rooms where a fresh, natural wood tone runs through from the flooring into the surrounding trim for a clean, coordinated finish.

Sizing and Cutting

The Beech Laminate Scotia Beading profile is 15mm x 15mm and comes in 2.4m lengths. For a standard room perimeter, simply measure the total length needed and calculate how many lengths to order. Where two pieces meet at an internal corner, mitre the ends to suit the angle of the corner for a clean, tight joint.

How to fit Scotia Beading

First, fix with a pin gun into the skirting board at 45 degrees. However, do not pin into the floor. Pinning into the floor locks the boards in place and causes them to buckle as they try to expand. The beading must therefore only be fixed to the skirting so the floor remains free to move underneath it.
