Gables have been a popular and commonplace roofing style in Australia for many years. The sloping ends of this iconic design make the gable roof suitable for most regions in Australia, allowing water and snow to slide off, preventing leaks and providing extra ventilation to your home. Gables can allow for high ceilings, giving homeowners the option of adding a loft, attic or additional storage space in the roof. Gables are simple, functional, easy to build, and can take on a variety of classic and modern aesthetics to a house.
DECO’s timber-look aluminium cladding, DecoClad, is an excellent option for adding aesthetic appeal and a classic country appearance or an interesting contemporary façade to your gable ends. The realistic timbergrain finish adds a warm, natural feel ideal for sprucing up any home, minus the maintenance requirements of real timber.
DecoClad’s 20mm ‘Shadowline’ and 135mm ‘Narrowline’ profiles, which feature interlocking boards and a recessed shadow between them, mimic the appearance of traditional timber cladding and come in a range of stunning natural woodgrains including many Australian and exotic species.
