Beveled cedar siding corner guard source
We recently remodeled an older home and finished the new addition to match the original house. It is clad with 1 x 10 beveled cedar siding with an 8 inch exposure. The original house has copper corner guards that hook under the siding by about a half inch and then cover the opposing faces by an inch and a half. We can find aluminum ones for 1/2 inch siding but no copper for the 1x in any of our local suppliers. They do not have to match these face exposures exactly. Does anyonr have a source for these items either online or phoneline. We’d like to overnight them asap to complete the project. This was dumped in my lap this morning. Thanks.

Don't know of a source, but I can fab 'em for you if necessary. Give me a drawing and a quantity and I'll give you a price and delivery time.
Email me at [email protected] and I'll give you a fax # if you're interested.
That's what I'd do. You could spend eternity and not find a match to something that was an off-the-shelf item 30 years ago. Get 'em made.
Thanks, That's an option we've considered and I'd have to run it by the big cheese but I know he nixed this idea of having them fabricated a couple weeks ago. I'll keep your e-mail just in case.

Hey Andy, I just checked their website and the 3 things I could get a price on that I buy regularly were 3 times min. what I pay for the same exact item. Pretty good markup. I think I know what direction I'm gonna take my business in.
