Trim &
Flashing
High-quality trim and flashing are essential for structural integrity, weatherproofing, and the overall appearance of your steel building — a comprehensive range of options tailored to meet diverse construction needs.
The basics
What is trim and flashing
Trim and flashing are the formed steel pieces that finish your metal building and keep the weather out. Trim covers the exposed edges where panels meet, such as corners, eaves, gables, the base, and the edges around doors and windows, giving the building a clean, finished look. Flashing is shaped to direct water away from joints, seams and openings, such as along the roofline and around doors and windows, so rain and snowmelt run off instead of getting in behind the panels. Together they seal the building’s edges against leaks, drafts and pests, and you can choose trim colours to match or contrast with your walls and roof.

How Toro Does it
Trim & flashing on a Toro building
Made for your building: Your trim and flashing are matched to your building’s size, panels and framed openings, so every piece fits as part of your kit, with no guesswork or cutting to size on site.
Colours you choose: Pick trim colours to match your walls and roof for a seamless look, or contrast them for a crisp outline, and see the result in our free 3D building designer before you order.
Ready to assemble: Trim and flashing arrive pre-cut and ready to fasten, with your assembly manual showing where each piece goes, so you or your local contractor can finish the building cleanly and seal it against rain, snow and wind.
