1. How thick is your diamond plate aluminum?

   Our diamond plate aluminum is .063" thick (14GA) 

2. Can you do custom diamond plate pieces?

   We can do any custom-sized, rectangular diamond plate piece up to 48" wide and 70" long. At this time, we're not accepting orders for any other kind of custom piece.

3. Do your diamond plate products come with adhesive or mounting hardware?

   No. So what do you use?

   Gorilla glue Heavy Duty construction adhesive is what we have used here at Tread-Ware.com in the past. You can add it to your cart before checking out to help get the job done. We also have used, and sell stainless steel screws, for a permanent fix. In some cases, double-sided adhesive tape will do the job.

4. How do I cut diamond plate from Tread-Ware?

   You'll want to use a miter saw with either a carbide tooth blade or a ripping blade turned backwards. Any blade designed to cut aluminum is the best choice for the smoothest and easiest cut. 

5. Do you make corner pieces for your diamond plate baseboard or diamond plate crown molding?

   Yes! we make inside and outside corners for all of our baseboard sizes.

   We do not make corners for crown molding at this time but, we're working on it. In the meantime, you can get practice with your miter saw!

6. Do your diamond plate kick plates and push plates come with holes pre-drilled?

   No, We leave this up to the customer. We want you to have flexibility with regard to hardware and hole placement.
