Common Uses
Cut to size and install with finish nails or construction adhesive. Flatstock is the base component for custom trim builds -- combine multiple widths and profiles to create elaborate door surrounds and mantels. MDF is a paint-only material. It does not accept stain and must be kept dry -- do not install in bathrooms or high-humidity areas.
Pro Tips
- Flatstock is the DIY trim builder's best friend. Combine a wide flatstock header with casing legs to create a Craftsman-style door surround without buying specialty moulding.
- Apply two coats of quality interior latex paint in satin or semi-gloss directly over the factory primer. Seal all cut edges with primer before painting -- exposed MDF edges absorb paint unevenly.
- For custom mantel and built-in applications, rip flatstock to the exact width needed on a table saw. The square edges allow precise custom sizing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is flatstock used for?
Flatstock is a square-edged board used to build custom trim assemblies, window headers, mantels, and built-in shelving. It is the base material for any trim design that starts with a straight, flat profile.
Can I use MDF moulding in a bathroom?
No. MDF absorbs moisture and swells irreversibly. Use solid wood (hemlock or cedar) moulding in bathrooms and high-humidity areas.
