Is there a definitive thread on trim to use?

Postby Oregon Brew » Sun Feb 24, 2013 2:09 am

I've been doing some searching, but can't find discussions about the appropriate trims to use around the perimeter of my trailer (where the walls meet the roof). I'm also building my own entry door and doing "barn doors" to reach my galley and could use some help on the appropriate edge wrap on the edges of my doors and what type of gaskets/seals I should use to keep my doors from leaking. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

All your teardrop trim needs can be purchased at Li'l Bear Tag Alongs. He has all the right parts. Just click on the following link. Grant is also a member of this board and won't do you wrong. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the plug, Gage ... :thumbsup: ...!

A more direct link would be this one: http://lilbear.teardrops.net/index.html

Oregon Brew ... if there is any way I can help/advise you, I'd be more than happy to do so! I offer a couple of choices in Roof Edge Moldings as well as trim moldings for your doors ... I also have some new products that aren't up on the site yet that might be what you are looking for for your "barn door" arrangement, or a way to adapt traditional T-Molding to the application. Just let me know some specifics. E-mail me - [email protected] - or we can continue the discussion here.

Good Luck, and as always ...

If you are in/near Portland, Interstate RV Metal and Supply is a great place for trim.

They're just of I205 in Milwaukie. It's kind of tough to find but well worth the trip.

Also, Affordavle RVing at 15555 SE Mcloughlin Blvd (503-659-3610) has lots of great, gently-used parts including trim.
