Laminate Scotia Beading LD48 Walnut

Walnut LD48 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, this Laminate Scotia Beading is the clean, low-profile way to conceal it.

Where to use Walnut Laminate Scotia Beading

Walnut is a rich, very dark brown tone with a smooth, tight grain pattern. It works well alongside dark walnut, wenge and near-black laminate floors where a deep, luxurious trim is needed. For dark stained or near-black painted skirting boards, this shade disappears completely into the base of the wall. Additionally, it suits formal and traditional interiors where a rich, dark floor tone sets the mood of the room and the trim needs to match that depth without compromise.

Sizing and Cutting 

The Walnut 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.
