TrueCraft PVC Colonial Crosshead Kit

Item No.: CRHPKCOL PVC crosshead kits are the economical way to trim a full project. Each kit ships as a backing piece and a trim piece that cut and assemble on site into finished door and window crossheads, building up to roughly 90 inches per kit. Across multiple openings, one kit trims several headers for less than the cost of buying them preassembled, and the savings grow with the size of the job.

Overview

PVC crosshead kits are built for projects with more than one opening to trim. Instead of buying a separate preassembled header for every door and window, each kit supplies a backing piece and a matching profiled trim piece that are cut to size and assembled on site, so a single kit builds up to roughly 90 inches of finished crosshead. That might cover several windows, or a door and a pair of windows, from one package.

The economics favor the kit as the job grows. For a single small opening, a preassembled crosshead is the simpler buy, but across multiple openings or one wide one, framing them from kit stock costs a fraction of buying finished headers individually, and the savings widen with every opening added. To size an order, add up the total width of every opening being trimmed and divide by roughly 90 inches to find the kit count. On large runs where the trim is the piece that runs out first, a standalone trim piece can be added on its own rather than buying another full kit.

Manufactured from high-density PVC, the material offers a lasting advantage over wood millwork. It resists moisture, rot, insects, and weather exposure, and it will not warp, swell, or crack with humidity or changing conditions, so the finished crosshead holds its profile and paint over time.
