Q: How many tools do I need to install cladding boards? A: Each pack contains 2 tools, which is the recommended minimum per board. Two tools spaced evenly along the board provide stable, level support while you fix.
Q: Can I use CLADBROS on my own without a labourer? A: Yes, that is exactly what it is designed for. CLADBROS acts as an extra pair of hands, holding the board in position so one person can install without assistance.
Q: What type of cladding boards is it compatible with? A: CLADBROS is designed for fibre-cement lap boards with a board width of 150mm to 240mm and a thickness of 8mm to 12mm. It is also suitable for use with timber or metal battens and horizontal lap cladding systems.
Q: Can I set it to a specific overlap and reuse that setting? A: Yes. Slide the gauge to your required overlap measurement (anywhere between 125mm and 205mm), align it with the mm scale, and lock it in place. Every subsequent board will be installed at exactly the same overlap.
Q: Does it work with Cedral cladding products? A: Yes. CLADBROS is used by Cedral Lap trained and trusted installers and is fully compatible with Cedral fibre-cement weatherboarding.
Q: Is the gauge metric or imperial? A: Both. The precision scale features millimetre and imperial markings to suit any installer's preference.
Q: How durable is the tool? A: CLADBROS is constructed with high-grade aluminium alloy with a rust-proof finish, built to withstand regular site use. It comes with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
Q: How do I maintain the tool? A: Wipe clean after each use, periodically check fixings, and lightly lubricate moving parts if needed. Store in a dry environment.
