Trim defines the edges
Trim can frame windows and doors, define corners and create transitions between materials. James Hardie's catalog includes trim products and trim batten boards designed to coordinate with its siding lines.
Soffit closes the eaves
James Hardie offers vented and non-vented fiber cement soffit panels. Vented soffit can be part of an attic ventilation strategy, but ventilation design should account for the complete roof and attic system rather than relying on one component alone.
Board-and-batten details
Hardie panel siding can be paired with trim batten boards to create board-and-batten style exteriors. See our vertical siding guide for design considerations.
Keep availability project-specific
Colors, textures and individual product configurations can vary by market. Confirm the current product catalog and local availability before finalizing the elevation.
