Schlegel also offer unique products to flash the window or door and protect the opening from the elements, which is particularly pertinent given recent weather events and as we move into the winter months. Dampseal push-in and slide-in flashing has been designed for quick and easy installation by incorporating rigid extruded profiles for insertion into the standard timber kerf and aluminium t-slot typically used for seals. This makes Dampseal not only a quick and simple product to install, but the application method prevents the potentially hazardous practice of holding flashing in place while stapling it to the product.
