PLS STANDARD BASEBOARD CONSTRUCTION SERVICE

PLEASE NOTE ALL BASEBOARDS ARE CONSTRUCTED ACCORDING TO OUR TERMS OF TRADE (WHERE SECTIONS APPLY). PLEASE CLICK HERE TO READ BEFORE PLACING AN ORDER.

Baseboards are constructed using the chosen top surface with a PSE soft wood metric 3"x1" or 2"x1" frame. All joints are PVA glued and screwed where appropriate. Optional extras include:

bulletUndercoating the boards with grey paint to act as a base for the scenery, as grey is the ideal basecoat colour for ballast, roads etc.
bulletTrestles - either bespoke timber or folding steel.
bulletBraced legs with or without adjustable feet.
 

 
bulletCastors to allow a board to be moved. Ideal on larger boards particularly when located in the home or garage. Legs with castors form part of a carrier frame. Castors can be requested as free or locking.

bulletEngineers dowels for accurate alignment of baseboards. Required when baseboards are regularly taken apart and joined together. These are used in addition to the standard method of fixing using coach bolts which tend to enlarge their locating holes when regularly used making accurate alignment difficult. 
 

 
bulletFlight case plastic corners on single boards to protect against sharp corners - ideal where children are walking near to or around the baseboard.
 

 
bulletTaped edges to cover the fixing screws on the outer edges - best used along with flight case corners. This can be seen in the image to the right above showing corner protectors on a small N gauge layout.
bulletCable holes can be drilled in the centre of all internal cross member frames.
bulletNot included in this price list is specialist joinery. We often receive enquiries for folding baseboards as shown below. Please visit Specialist Joinery for more information.
