There are several types of perimeter trim depending on the application, but they all fit into one of two categories.
1. Trim that fits into the lock lip of a mat (shown in Figures 6 and 7).
2. Active Threshold type trim that fits onto the active edge of a mat (shown in Figures 8 and 9).
The difference in the mat edge style for the two different categories of trim is obvious as shown below.
Many different combinations of trim can be used in an application to accomplish the necessary result.
Dry fit the balance of the trim pieces in their proper position. If cord exits were pre-determined at the time of ordering, the trim
kits may have been ordered with machined notches where the mat wire(s) exits the perimeter trim.

NOTE: If your installation contains many mats and/or the mats form a specific pattern, you should have
received a drawing specific to your installation. Refer to it when laying the mats in place.
