Laminate Scotia Beading LD32 Cherry

Cherry LD32 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, Cherry Laminate Scotia Beading is the clean, low-profile way to conceal it.

Where to use Cherry Laminate Scotia Beading 

Cherry is a warm, reddish-brown tone with a rich grain pattern. It works well alongside cherry wood, mahogany and darker reddish laminate floors and sits closest to the Merbau LD4 door bars in our laminate range. For skirting boards with a dark wood stain or reddish timber finish, this is a strong choice over lighter or neutral tones. Rooms where a deep, warm colour runs consistently through the floor and into the trim particularly benefit from this shade, giving the space a rich, coordinated finish.

Sizing and Cutting 

The Cherry 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.
