Description
Durable Timber
Contours are made from durable, solid timber and are available in a range of species, including:
- Engineered American Oak – a stunning North American Hardwood.
- Tasmanian Oak – a beautiful Australian Hardwood.
- Clear Pine – a light softwood that is ideal for painting, staining, waxing and colour-washed.
- Pre-Primed Pine – a softwood finger-jointed moulding with a water-based primer in a matte white finish. Ideal for painting with either acrylic or oil-based paints.
Residential Applications
Contours are perfect as a feature in a kitchen, bedroom, hallway, living room, dining room, bathroom, or laundry. Contours can also be used to clad joinery and interior doors as well as creating concealed doorways for a seamless finish.
In high moisture areas, such as bathrooms and laundries, we recommend coating the lining boards on all faces and edges before installation.
Commercial Applications
Contours enhance an interior space and deliver a warm and tactile backdrop. They can be used to clad joinery, reception desks, counters and banquet seating as well as creating straight and curved feature walls.
Secret doors are a great way to add a practical and unique design aesthetic to your space. Porta Contours are easy to install with concealed fixings, making it easy for your hidden door to sit flush with the wall.
Suitable for Curves
Contours are suitable for curves down to a 1000mm radius. For tighter curves, down to a 300mm radius, curved wall beads are available for selected profiles.
As one of the biggest interior design trends, using Contours in curved applications visually softens the hard lines and sleek finishes of functional spaces. Rooms with a curved element promote traffic flow, reduce hard edges and corners while creating a more comfortable and beautiful aesthetic.
Curved Wall Bead Range
Contours are suitable for curves down to a 1000mm radius. For tighter curves, down to a 300mm radius, matching curved wall beads are available for selected profiles.
Seamless Finish & Easy to Install
Porta Contours are suitable for vertical and horizontal applications and have been designed for ease of installation with a secret fix tongue and groove connection. They can be installed DIY by one person and fixed directly onto prepared plasterboard, timber, steel, brick, or masonry wall surfaces.
They can also be used in conjunction with any other Contours profile to create a unique design.
Sustainable & Responsibly Sourced
Porta is committed to sourcing timber from sustainable and environmentally responsible resources.
Porta holds a Chain of Custody under internationally recognised and accredited organisations including the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).
