Cladding for trim members used on buildings

An improved cladding of the type which is conventionally adapted to cover externally facing surfaces of an external trim element of a building structure and through which fasteners can be driven in order to join the trim element to an adjacent element of the structure, the improvement of which comprises a tiltable flap permanently hingably attached to and along said cladding, said flap having an open position tilted away from an externally facing surface portion of said cladding to permit fasteners to be driven through said surface portion in order to join the trim element to the adjacent element, said flap having a closed, operative position which covers at least a section of said surface portion to conceal holes in said section through which the fasteners have been driven, said flap being hingably attached to and along an external edge of said cladding, a free edge of said flap being closable along and against a border of said surface portion which extends alone a central part of an externally facing surface of said cladding, which border is spaced from said external edge, said cladding including a wall projecting perpendicular therefrom which extends along said border, said wall containing a depression into which said free edge of said flap snap fits upon placing said flap in said closed, operative position.
