Description
Fortex Shadow Gap Cladding 182mm x 5m
Fortex Shadow Gap Cladding gives exterior walls a clean, modern appearance with deep grooves between each board. The subtle pine-embossed surface creates a natural timber effect, while the PVC construction keeps ongoing maintenance low.
Each pack contains four 182mm x 5m boards and covers approximately 3.6m².
Special-order product – we do not normally hold this range in stock. The usual lead time is approximately 1–2 weeks.
Delivery & Collection
Due to the 5m board length, this product is available for local North East delivery or collection from our Hexham trade counter only. It cannot be sent using a standard parcel courier.
Please wait until we confirm that your order is ready before arranging collection. We will contact you to organise local delivery where required.
Why Choose Fortex Shadow Gap Cladding?
The deep recessed groove creates a clear shadow line between each board. As a result, the finished elevation has a crisp and contemporary appearance.
The face also features a subtle pine-style embossed texture. Therefore, it provides the character of painted timber without the need for regular painting or staining.
In addition, the boards contain a rigid foam core with a durable textured outer surface. This makes them lightweight and practical to handle during installation.

Where Can You Use Shadow Gap Cladding?
Use Fortex Shadow Gap Cladding on house elevations, extensions, dormers, gable ends and garden rooms. It also works well on modern exterior feature areas.
The system suits both renovation and new-build projects. However, always follow the Freefoam installation guide and use the correct fixings, ventilation details and finishing trims.
Pack Coverage and Ordering
Each 182mm x 5m board covers approximately 0.91m². Therefore, four boards provide approximately 3.6m² of coverage.
First, measure the full wall area. Then allow extra material for cuts, openings and waste. Quantity 1 equals one complete pack of four boards.
Also calculate the butt joints, corners, edge trims, starter trims and ventilation components required before ordering.
Colours and Matching Fortex Trims
Select your required colour before adding the pack to your basket. Matching joints, corners, starters and finishing trims are available in our Fortex Cladding Trims and Accessories category.
Finally, colours may appear differently on individual screens. Check a physical Freefoam colour sample when an exact match is important.
