Versetta Stone\u00ae Universal Corner is designed to be for outside and inside corners, and end wall terminations. Universal Corner can be installed in no time, with no mess.<\/p>\n<h3>Required Tools &amp; Personal Protective Equipment<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s go over the tools, materials and equipment you\u2019ll need.<\/p>\n<p>Use the following <strong>safety equipment<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>goggles,<br \/>\nan N95 series dust mask,<br \/>\ngloves,<br \/>\nhearing protection,<br \/>\na hard hat,<br \/>\nand steel toed boots.<\/p>\n<p>The following <strong>tools<\/strong> are required to successfully install Universal Corner:<\/p>\n<p>a hammer or mallet,<br \/>\na nail gun or drill,<br \/>\nfasteners,<br \/>\na circular saw,<br \/>\na laser or regular level,<br \/>\na screwdriver,<br \/>\nchalk line,<br \/>\na brush,<br \/>\na tape measure,<br \/>\ntin snips,<br \/>\nand PL premium construction adhesive.<\/p>\n<p>A 5\/16\u201d rod or dowel is optional. While either a nail gun or drill is recommended, we will be using a drill in this demonstration.<\/p>\n<p>Each surface you plan to cover with Versetta Stone\u00ae panels, requires at least one layer of water resistant barrier material, that meets ICC acceptance criteria 38.<\/p>\n<h3>Estimating Materials<\/h3>\n<p>Take some time to estimate the materials you\u2019ll need to complete your project. Use this equation to correctly order your Versetta Stone\u00ae Universal Corner:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5859\" src=\"http:\/\/www.allthingsstone.com\/us-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/01\/estimating-equation1_black.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"637\" height=\"79\" \/><\/p>\n<p>An entire Universal Corner piece provides 2 square feet of wall area coverage.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5860\" src=\"http:\/\/www.allthingsstone.com\/us-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/01\/estimating-equation2-3_black.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"637\" height=\"168\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Until you become more familiar with Versetta Stone\u00ae products, factor in about 10% of scrap to get the coverage you need.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5861\" src=\"http:\/\/www.allthingsstone.com\/us-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/01\/estimating-equation4_black.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"637\" height=\"82\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For more detailed measurement information, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.canadianstone.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/01\/versetta-stone-installation-guide.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">download the installation guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Introduction to Installation<\/h3>\n<p>Take a look at the features of Universal Corner, as some are different from Flat Versetta Stone\u00ae Panels. The backs of Universal Corner pieces contain channels that allow Flat Panels to be butted in, without knocking off the side tongue. This design allows Universal Corner to work perfectly with Versetta Stone\u00ae Flat Panels.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Flat Panels, a whole Universal Corner piece should not be used in the centre of a course. Universal Corner pieces must be cut to create left and right corners. The cut location should vary in order to achieve a staggered appearance. We recommend each cut panel be at least 8 inches in length.<\/p>\n<p>Begin the bottom course with a starter strip. Remember to check for level. Be sure the water resistant barrier is installed over the starter strip.<\/p>\n<h3>Installing an Outside Corner<\/h3>\n<p>First we\u2019ll install an outside corner. Start at the bottom of the wall, and position one half of the Universal Corner, nail flange up, cut edge away from corner, into the starter strip. Set a standard Flat Panel into the starter strip on the adjacent wall. Extend the Universal Corner past the wall edge, and slide the standard Flat to intersect with the Universal Corner, adjusting both pieces as needed.<\/p>\n<h3>Installing an Inside Corner<\/h3>\n<p>Now we\u2019ll install an inside corner. The panel will need to be cut into two pieces, making sure the cut pieces are not equal in length. First, insert the Universal Corner piece into the corner of the wall. After securing the corner, slide a standard Versetta Stone\u00ae Flat Panel into the face of the Universal Corner. The ends of the Universal Corner have an even face, allowing for a nice tight fit with the adjacent panels. If you are using the factory end of the Flat Panel, remove the side tongue before installing.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to continue alternating the Universal Corner up the wall until you\u2019re installation is complete.<\/p>\n<h3>Installing End Terminations<\/h3>\n<p>The third use of Universal Corner is as a termination, at the end of a wall or object. Cut the Universal Corner to create left and right corners for the end terminations. As always, we recommend that the end pieces are cut at different lengths.<\/p>\n<p>You have the option to extend Universal Corner beyond the wall termination, up to 3 inches, to achieve the optimal transition to the adjoining wall covering. For the best look, align all courses with a similar overhang.<\/p>\n<h3>Capping Your Installation<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re capping your installation, simply set the Versetta Stone\u2019s panel wainscot cap on top of your last course. The tongue must be level and attached with 4 fasteners, with at least 2 penetrating the framing. Also ensure that the end fasteners are within 3 inches from the end of the cap. Continue down the wall, butting each cap against the preivious.<\/p>\n<h3>Final Notes<\/h3>\n<p>Refer to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.canadianstone.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/01\/versetta-stone-installation-guide.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">written installation instructions<\/a> when using Universal Corner, in applications that don\u2019t require a nailing flange.<\/p>\n<p>Versetta Stone\u00ae panels are intended solely for homes and buildings that meet code requirements, including code-approved flashing and water management provisions. If there\u2019s any question about the integrity of the structure of your project, contact the owner, builder or registered design professional before starting your project. Versetta Stone\u00ae Universal Corner goes up fast, doesn\u2019t make a mess, and is an attractive wall finish your customers will love.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introducing another innovative product from Boral Stone.
