Description

Architectural Finishing: The Alhambra White Glazed Dado Rail

Complete your design with the professional elegance of the Alhambra White 5 x 15cm Dado Rail. This sculpted ceramic trim provides the perfect "crown" for your tiled walls, offering a seamless transition from artisanal glaze to painted surface.

The **Alhambra White Dado** is the ultimate finishing touch for those seeking a bespoke, period-inspired aesthetic. Specifically designed to cap off the top edge of half-tiled walls or splashbacks, this moulded rail eliminates the need for unsightly plastic trims or raw tile edges. Featuring the collection’s signature **translucent white glaze**, the piece radiates a soft, ivory warmth. As light catches the moulded profile, the glaze pools and thins over the curves, creating a subtle depth that enhances the architectural silhouette of the room. It is the difference between a simple renovation and a masterfully considered interior design.


✓ Why Choose the Alhambra White Dado?

  • Refined Wall Capping - Provides a clean, decorative top edge for wainscoting and half-height tiling projects.
  • Luminous Ivory Glaze - Expertly matched to the Alhambra White 15cm and 22.5cm field tiles for perfect tonal continuity.
  • Classic Sculpted Profile - Adds a sense of history and architectural weight to both modern and traditional bathrooms.
  • High-Gloss Protection - A non-porous, easy-to-clean ceramic surface that protects tile edges from moisture and impact.

⚠️ Professional Fitting Tips

  • Corner Detailing: To achieve a clean look at external and internal corners, these rails must be mitre-cut at 45 degrees. A wet saw with a diamond blade is essential for a chip-free finish.
  • Adhesive & Grout: Use a high-quality white flexible adhesive and a grout color that matches your main field tiles for a seamless transition.
  • Ordering: Because of the intricate cuts required for trims, we recommend ordering **15% wastage** for these pieces.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Does this match the "wavy" surface of the field tiles?

While the field tiles have an undulating flat surface, the Dado rail has a specific moulded "S-curve" profile. However, the glaze and color are an exact match, ensuring the rail looks like an integrated architectural part of the tile wall.

Can I use this with the longer 22.5cm Alhambra White tiles?

Yes. Even though the rail is 15cm long, it is designed to be the universal trim for the entire Alhambra range. It works beautifully with both lengths; simply stagger the joints or line them up every two field tiles if using the shorter format.

Is it easy to clean?

Yes, extremely. The top horizontal edge of a dado rail can collect dust over time, but the high-gloss glaze makes it effortless to wipe clean with a damp cloth.

How do I end the rail if it doesn't go wall-to-wall?

If the rail ends in the middle of a wall, your installer will typically perform a "return" cut—mitring a tiny piece of the rail to turn back into the wall, creating a neat, finished end cap.
