British Western Red Cedar Cladding – TLAN Halflap Shadow Gap
Secure premium architectural timber directly from our highly advanced Somerset milling facility. The highly bespoke TLAN halflap profile is explicitly engineered to deliver an incredibly crisp, highly contemporary shadow gap aesthetic. The overlapping design ensures an extremely secure weather tight joint that actively channels exterior moisture directly away from the structural cavity. Combined with the immense natural durability and striking grain characteristics of British Western Red Cedar, it actively provides a highly luxurious, entirely flawless architectural facade for prestigious properties.
Mechanical Profile Advantages
The highly specialized TLAN halflap profile is explicitly designed to solve complex commercial installation challenges requiring striking visual lines. The deeply engineered overlapping halflap ensures an extremely tight joint that actively forces severe external moisture to cascade entirely down the external surface, completely protecting the underlying batten structure.
Because our master machinists utilise strictly heavy duty carbide tooling, the incredibly sharp profile lines sit perfectly flush. This precise dimensional accuracy actively highlights the dramatic recessed shadow gap effect across expansive commercial elevations without compromising structural integrity whatsoever.

Frequently Asked Questions & Expert Advice
Why specify the TLAN halflap profile in British Cedar?
Choosing British Western Red Cedar immediately provides an incredibly robust, deeply characterful timber boasting exceptional natural durability against severe United Kingdom weather cycles. When machined specifically into the highly intricate TLAN halflap shadow gap profile, you actively maximise these inherent aesthetic benefits, creating a deeply pronounced contemporary line across your entire commercial facade.
What is a halflap shadow gap profile?
The TLAN halflap profile features precision machined overlapping joints that actively create a highly distinctive, deeply recessed architectural channel between boards, delivering an incredibly crisp contemporary aesthetic completely favoured by modern developers.
How does this profile prevent water ingress?
By precisely overlapping, the halflap completely forces exterior moisture to run continuously down the external face, actively safeguarding the structural integrity of your underlying commercial batten structure.
Expert Application Advice: Because the TLAN profile actively relies on gravity and exact mechanical tolerances to shed moisture effectively, you must strictly ensure the boards are installed entirely level using premium stainless steel fixings.
