Aluminium and PVC skirting: compare function before finish

BULDX product guides2 min read

Select skirting by wall-to-floor geometry, material, finish and fixing method. Two profiles with the same height may have different projections, backing arrangements or accessory systems.

APPLICATION ILLUSTRATIONAI-generated application illustration for this guide. Not a completed BULDX project or an installation drawing.

Selection considerations

Check the wall condition and floor edge before choosing a section. Record straight runs, internal corners, external corners and visible ends. A complete installation includes these junctions, not just the main profile length.

Compare aluminium and PVC against the project's cleaning, appearance and exposure requirements. Confirm the exact finish or colour reference in the quotation. If the profile uses a clip or separate base, include it explicitly. Keep replacement parts linked to the installed BULDX code so a similar-looking section is not ordered later by height alone.

Before you specify or order

  • Measure height and projection
  • Include corner and end details
  • Confirm base or clip components

Common question

Does equal skirting height mean equal compatibility?

No. Projection, fixing geometry and accessory fit can still differ.
