Abstract
A fascia trim joint locking device is provided. The device includes a planar base having a pair of adjacent perpendicular planar walls, forming a general L-shape. In another embodiment of the fascia trim joint locking device, the device includes a planar base that is rectangular. In yet another embodiment, the device includes a planar base with an attaching latch. The planar walls include a pair of curved perimeter step-downs and taper downwardly to the opposing width and lengthwise ends of the planar base. At least one of the walls includes a pair of offset mounting apertures. The device can be secured around the bottom corner of fascia trim joint, a lateral fascia trim joint, and a ridge fascia trim joint to lock together the trim joint and prevent movement or separation.
Claims12
A joint locking device, comprising:
- a planar base;
- wherein the planar base forms a general L-shape;
- a plurality of planar walls extending upwardly from the planar base;
- the plurality of planar walls includes a pair of curved perimeter step-downs;
- wherein the pair of curved perimeter step-downs taper downwardly to the opposing width and lengthwise ends of the planar base, whereby the planar base and the plurality of planar walls form a single unit;
- and
- at least one of the planar walls includes a pair of offset mounting apertures.
A joint locking device, comprising:
- a planar base;
- wherein the planar base forms a rectangular shape;
- a plurality of mounting apertures disposed on the face of the planar base a pair of planar walls extending upwardly from opposing lengthwise ends of the planar base;
- wherein a first planar wall is a rectangular shape and a second planar wall includes a pair of curved perimeter step-downs;
- whereby the planar base and the pair of planar walls form a single unit;
- a plurality of mounting apertures disposed on the face of the first planar wall;
- and
- a pair of offset mounting apertures disposed on the face of the second planar wall.
A joint locking device, comprising:
- a planar base;
- a planar wall extending upwardly from one end of the planar base;
- an attaching latch extending upwardly from the end of the planar base opposing the planar wall;
- wherein the planar wall includes a pair of curved perimeter step-downs, whereby the planar base, the planar wall, and the attaching latch form a single unit;
- and
- a plurality of mounting apertures disposed on the face of the planar wall.
