For homes with siding exteriors, trim plays a critical role in the finished appearance. Clean transitions around windows, doors, and corners can dramatically elevate curb appeal, but traditional trim packages often limited the aesthetic choices available to homeowners. Historically, exterior trim pieces were not always available in the same color as siding profiles, making it more difficult to achieve a cohesive appearance across the exterior. Plus, the process of fastening trim and painting it to match the siding created inconsistencies and irregularities in appearance.
Everlast’s Premium Color-Matched Trim options, including the new Everlast Inside Corner Post, helps eliminate those challenges with extruded, one-piece profile designs that allow for clean, flowing aesthetics and are engineered for consistent color and installation.
Together, Everlast’s trim collection offers contractors and homeowners greater flexibility to achieve today’s most popular home styles through a high-performance siding system designed to stand the test of time.
A New Era of Trim
Achieving that premium, clean, and cohesive curb appeal around doors, windows, and corners is one of the most detail-sensitive aspects of siding installation.
Everlast trim options include prefinished profiles in all 15 Everlast siding colors, providing the flexibility to achieve both traditional and custom aesthetics, along with the freedom to match or use a contrasting color to set it apart visually.
For example, the Inside Corner Post comes ready to install and helps create a clean transition inside perpendicular walls, giving homeowners an appealing, finished aesthetic. It also reduces the need for on-site fabrication, eliminating unsightly seam lines introduced when contractors have to butt together two separate J-trims.
The corner trim, along with other Everlast trim components, are engineered to hide the end of the siding panel from view while permitting the necessary expansion and contraction caused by seasonal temperature swings. Because Everlast siding is a floating system, the trim pockets are necessary for its required lateral movement, allowing planks to slide freely back and forth.
The Everlast siding trim package features seven unique trim profiles, allowing for diverse applications around windows and doors, on inside and outside corners, and on the perimeter of the home. These components not only elevate the visual appeal but also deliver practical installation advantages in terms of fastening options available to crews. They possess a more robust structure that allows for mechanical joint fastening for angled, miter cuts as well as squared off Craftsman-style edges.
All Everlast Premium Color-Matched Trim options provide seamless color coordination with Everlast siding products and never require painting. The trim is available in all 15 Everlast siding color options and a CedarTouch® finish for the authentic look of real wood. It helps create a cohesive appearance with no mismatched hues, uneven finishes, or the disadvantages of using real lumber.
The Everlast siding system includes multiple trim profile options, including:
3 ½" and 5 ½" outside corner posts
2 ¼" inside corner posts
1 ¾" J-trim
3 ½" casing
1 ½" perimeter trim
2 ¾" T-molding
From Craftsman to Farmhouse: Accommodating Popular Designs
The right trim helps contractors and homeowners create everything from timeless, Craftsman-inspired exteriors to the clean contrasts associated with modern farmhouse designs. Robust, color-matched profiles make it easier to achieve a wider variety of popular home designs.
Previously, the Everlast siding system offered more limited window trim design options. Now, with the expanded trim collection from Everlast, you can achieve Craftsman-style casings featuring clean, straight lines and distinctive squared edges for contractors and homeowners seeking a charming, handcrafted appearance. These trim components coordinate well with the earthy, natural color palettes typically used in Craftsman-style homes and complement defining architectural elements such as elegant porch columns at the front of the home.
Everlast’s trim package also supports the bold contrasts and clean lines commonly found in modern farmhouse designs. For this style, builders and homeowners can combine Everlast siding’s colors and profiles with coordinating trim components to create accent details that emphasize windows, rooflines, and entryways. Modern farmhouse exteriors often feature high-contrast palettes, such as light siding paired with darker trim, to showcase these clean lines and the defining elements of the home.
Whether designing a Craftsman-inspired exterior, a modern farmhouse facade, or another architectural style, the Everlast siding trim collection provides greater flexibility to achieve a cohesive, finished appearance.
Fastening Options for Seamless Aesthetics
Concealed and color-matched fasteners are increasingly used in exterior design to create cleaner, more discrete installation options, eliminating visible screw heads disrupting the finished appearance.
Now available with Everlast siding, the Cortex® fastening system allows installers to secure trim and siding through the surface of the product and then cover the fasteners with color-matched plugs made from the same material. This helps create a more consistent color and texture match across the exterior.
When paired with Everlast trim options, the Cortex system supports a more refined finish while maintaining reliable holding strength and long-term performance for face-fastened installations.
Siding Made Simpler
Small details can make a big difference when it comes to the exterior construction of residential, multi-family, or commercial buildings, and trim is an essential component in cultivating the overall aesthetic.
With Everlast Premium Color-Matched Trim, contractors and homeowners can achieve cleaner, more consistent results without the need for on-site painting or touch-up work during installation.
By combining extruded, one-piece trim profiles with coordinated colors, and concealed fastening options, the Everlast trim system helps streamline installation while supporting cohesive exterior designs across a wide range of architectural styles.
