Dutch lap siding, also known as German siding, is a type of exterior cladding characterized by its unique profile. Each horizontal board has a curved notch at the top, creating a shadow line and giving the appearance of traditional, hand-carved wood siding. This design not only adds visual interest and depth but also improves water shedding capabilities.
Dutch lap siding is available in various materials, including wood, vinyl, and fiber cement, and offers an array of colors and finishes. Its charming, rustic aesthetic combined with modern materials makes it a popular choice for both historical restorations and contemporary homes.
Dutch Siding is available in a variety of sizes with common overall heights of 5.5”, 7.25”, 9.25” (14, 18.4, 23.5 cm), exposed heights of 5”, 6.75”, 8.75” (12.7, 17.1, 22.2 cm), and depths of .75” (1.9 cm). The overlap between panels is typically .5” (1.3 cm).
